old topics are not necessarily invalid.

generally, consider creating custom page templates: https://developer.www.ads-software.com/themes/template-files-section/page-template-files/page-templates/
with a custom query and loop each: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Class_Reference/WP_Query
possibly using the date paramters:

what theme are you using at the moment?

Thank you. Good point on the old topics, except that the instruction code looked nothing like my current code. It all looked HTML only.

I am currently using Shamrock code.

I will try to do the custom page template. Thanks for the instructions. I will follow them.

I would add that you should create a child theme first, then put your custom templates in there rather than modifying Shamrock theme directly:

Thanks Susan. Those instructions seem pretty complicated to me, but I will give it a shot. So anything I have customized, I need to put in a child theme? I should have done that first.
