Currently, each time i wish to add new articles or reviews etc to my website, i have to write them in traditional HTML text. This isn't that hard but at times inconvenient. So I thought I'd have a go at wordpress so I can post my reviews into their relevant categories. but it seems like you can't.

In a nutshell, I'm trying to post to different pages. Foreaxmple,to post my games reviews on the Games Review pages, and my tecnhical stuff on another Tenchiocal page. But each both only appears on the front pages, regardless of the catgeory i post it to.

I'm pretty sire this is a limitation unless there is some kind of plugin to post entries to a specific page.

Hi Rob, Welcome to the forums :)

I have just read through that and it seems this is for excluding categrories rather than adding them to the pages.




They do post under specific pages/categories, e.g. http://www.huddysworld.co.uk/TheAdmiralsLog/?cat=3

Wordpress by default just lumps them all together for the home page, edit the homepage template to whatever you need and bobs your Aunties live in lover.

Gotcha.. So i can view my posts by category.. So how do I see that category when I click on the page tab? For example, I click on the "PC Games tab I want to see the PC games Category.
 
Bumping this,

So what we want to do now is have that archive page to be the other page for posting post. So just edit the navigation bar in the header.php, and get rid of the php that makes pages show up automatically and do it manually. This isn't hard if you know what you're doing.

Ok I have no idea how to do this.. I've looked at the header.php but there is nothing there I can see I can change.

Thanks.
