posts page redirecting to old non-wordpress site

Hello all,

First time poster and fairly new web/wordpress person.

I am having a problem with a site I have moved to WordPress for my brother. I have the site moved and everything seems to be working fine except for one thing…whatever page I set to have my posts display on doesn’t work.

I set my static home page to home, and set my posts page to a blank page I created called blog. When I go to the site and click on the blog link in the header it takes me to the home page of the old, junky, websites homepage, although the url is correct ‘www.xxxxxxxx.com/blog’.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance.
