 * Hello. New to WordPress. I promise I have read, and read, but I can’t seem to
   find the answer to this simple question:
 * I want to create a Page of Posts, and I used the example code found [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#A_Page_of_Posts).
 * Where in the code do I put “Events” like they say in the description? (My category
   will have adifferent name.)
 * I see it says to “assign the Custom Field “category” with a value of “Events”
   to the Page.” But I’m not exactly sure where that is, or if it’s in multiple 
   locations within the code.
 * I have the page working, just not showing the posts I want.
 * Thank you! Please forgive my ignorance!

 * 1. Go into a Post.
    2. Scroll down to the bottom. 3. Under the Custom Field area,
   press enter new. 4. Enter “category” for Name and “Events” (or whatever you want)
   for Value. 5. Press the white update button. 6. Press the blue update button 
   on the top right.

 * Thank you for your reply!
 * I’m not sure if what I’m doing is correct, but here’s a better description.
 * I have a Q&A site and I used Instant Q&A premium theme from themeforest. It uses
   WP to have questions and answers. I want to have a seperate blog as well. So,
   I created a new page and inserted the code from the Page of Posts codex. Now,
   I want to modify that code so that it shows only the category “Blog” on that 
   page. Then, I will exclude “Blog” from the front page and the category list, 
   and create a seperate tab in the header to reach my “Blog”.
 * I believe that is what the “Page of Posts” coding if for. I want to know where
   in the “Page of Posts” coding in need to insert “Blog” in order to show only 
   the “Blog” category.
 * My site is [here](http://www.e-cfi.com).
 * Thanks again!

 * i understand what your talking about after you put the template page of posts,
   the event and value is **NOT** in the code it is in the page editor. I have a
   picture here [http://i51.tinypic.com/28lf0wx.jpg](http://i51.tinypic.com/28lf0wx.jpg)
 * Simply in the “name” part always write category, then in “value” you put in the
   category of the posts you want to show on the page such as blog. Then it will
   only display posts with that category.
 * Hope this helps

 * Yes! Thank you! It’s so simple…
 * I’m so excited about this WP thing. The community aspect is so helpful.
 * Now I just need to get it to show up where I want to on my “Blog” page, and exclude
   it from the other areas…
 * Thanks again!
