Blog like feature on all three pages?

sorry – raised a new topic

I would create three categories, group the post into the appropriate category and then add category navigation links.

You could eliminate the 3 pages this way as well.

HI Jamie,

Thanks for the tip. But I want the three different categories of posts to appear in three different pages. Basically I want to blog about three different topics on three different pages on my site…Please advise..

You could further separate your content using custom post types.

Easy Custom Post Types is a great plugin for creating custom post types and custom taxonomies.

Does that help?

Yes, it’s possible, gia04. This post will help you display a customizable list of posts in a page by creating a template for it. After you have done 3 templates for your 3 pages, just select each page from featured pages.

@jamie Brewer: why would gia want to create custom post types when she wants lists of her posts from certain categories?

Hi Jamie and Acub,

Thanks for your solutions. i am a newbie to this and may not be comprehending all this well. I did look at the link you sent @acub and will try it out and see.

I definitely want to take the blog out of my front page and have 3 blogs on those 3 feature pages.

@acub, i saved the file as blog.php in my childtheme folder, but do not see an option to select this for page template on the page. I dont have this as an option to select for page template. Please advise.

The meta box is called “Page attributes” and is displayed under the one called “Publish” (which has the Status, Move to Trash, publish date, etc), in the right side.

The Page attributes meta box also has the “parent” select box. If you don’t see it there, click on Screen Options (top-right) and check “Page Attributes” check-box and it will show up. Hopefully :). If you still don’t see it, there are 2 cases:

1. Your WP installation is corrupted and you should try a re-install from the updates in dashboard.
2. You’re using a plugin that hides parts of the WP dashboard and you have accidentally and/or mistakenly hidden Page Attributes (in which case solution number 1 won’t work, you need to unhide Page Attributes from your plugin).

Another possible cause you’re not seeing the template is if you have altered the header (the commented) part from it’s beginning. WP uses that comment to classify it as a template. I’m talking about:

<?php
/*
 * Template Name: Blog Posts
 * @package Customizr
 * @since Customizr 3.0.12
 */
?>

This should start from first line of the file and remain untouched.

That’s about it.
