HELP PLEASE! I can’t figure out how to get blog posts on the home page!

Out of interest, what category did you set on the post?

Ah! It looks as though you have the static page option set, see here

Make sure it shows latest posts! ??

Thank you, but when I change that, it gets rid of the slider image I have on the home page, and then it also removed the blog posts from the Blog page.

This post is under the Category “Travel Tips + Tricks”. Does Category matter?

Thanks for the help!

I just read that WordPress doesn’t allow you to post blog posts to a Blog Page AND the Front Page, is this true? I don’t understand that, as this blog previously did just that, before I let the hosting plan expire and lost everything ??

If that’s the case, I am assuming that I need to delete the BLOG page from my menu and just have posts go to the Front Page? If I categorize them, can I still have a drop down on my menu with the Categories and will each post go there instead? Guess I’ll try that option now :-/

Okay, so I answered my own question. It worked assigning my latest posts to the Front Page and then having a drop down of Categories to list the individual posts instead of a true Blog page.

Last remaining question though, my Slider I have on the front page is no longer showing. Any ideas on that one? I have it inserted under Pages, on the Home page. I am using the MetaSlider plugin for this.

Thanks!

I’m no expert Shannon, I do place my questions here as well but most of the times I find the cure before getting an answer. Unless someone suggest otherwise, I would contact the folks at the MetaSlider support page. I’m using Hueman almost to its maximum and I love this theme. Can’t believe is loaded with goodies for a free version (www.mkreview.com).

Nice Blog you have there, I used to Blog about Puerto Rico many years ago.

Thanks @eltaino. I am going to post under the MetaSlide support pages as well b/c I still can’t see to figure it out. It seems, from what I’ve read, you need to have a page assigned to the front page for it to work, and you can’t do that if you have it assigned to latest posts. Hmmmm…

You’ve got quite a nice website yourself. Would you mind if I sent you a message about some of the plugins you use (I’m assuming they are plugins)?

Hello @shannonelizabeth. Sorry I missed your comment. For some reason I’m not receiving email notifications from replies posted on these help forums. Even when I’m the author of the question I don’t receive them. So having that in mind, please feel free to contact me with your plugin questions ([email protected]).
