nevermind. I figured out the issue ??

Another quick question. When i did that, one of my categories is not pulling in correctly (for example, coremetrics) When i click on coremetrics, it is pulling in other posts as well. How can i fix this?

Thank You!

ok but how do i go about working that in to the page??

the blog posts are uploaded to the site already. There are over 300 blog posts, so I know the amount of posts is not an issue. I created separate pages for all posts, and then separate pages for each individual category using a plugin called posts in page. This plugin gives you the following options:

To ‘pull’ posts into a page, you can either:

place a shortcode in the editor window of the page you’re editing, or
modify a theme template file using the shortcode in a PHP function.
Using Shortcodes in the WordPress editor
[ic_add_posts] – Add all posts to a page (limit to what number posts in WordPress is set to), essentially adds blog “page” to page.
[ic_add_posts ids=’1,2,3′] – show one or many posts by specifying the post ID(s) ( specify all post types )
[ic_add_posts post_type=’post_type’] – show posts from a custom post type by specifying the post type slug ( must give post type if not a standard post ) add multiple post types by separating with commas (ex. post_type=’post_type1,post_type2′)
[ic_add_posts showposts=’5′] – limit number of posts (or override default setting)
[ic_add_posts orderby=’title’ order=’ASC’] – orderby title – supports all WP orderby variables. Order is optional, WP default
[ic_add_posts category=’category-slug’] – Show posts within a specific category. Uses slugs, can have multiple but separate by commas. category-1,category2, etc (no spaces.)
[ic_add_posts tag=’tag-slug’] – Show posts using a specific tag. Like categories, it uses slugs, and can accommodate multiple tags separate by commas. tag-1,tag-2, etc (no spaces.)
[ic_add_posts tax=’taxonomy’ term=’term’] – limit posts to those that exist in a taxonomy and have a specific term. Both are required for either one to work
[ic_add_posts template=’template-in-theme-dir.php’] – In case you want to style your markup, add meta data, etc. Each shortcode can reference a different template. These templates must exist in the theme directory.
Or any combination of the above.

Using Shortcodes within a PHP function
If you’d like to use this plugin to pull posts directly into your theme’s template files, you can drop the following WordPress function in your template files, replacing the [shortcode] part with your, custom shortcode.

<?php echo do_shortcode(“[shortcode]”); ?>

I added the [ic_add_posts] to the blog page, and ect for other pages

If i cant add a widget, I would like to add a contact form to the right side of the page, but have it separate from the body text of the page.

There are no <p> tags in the code. I inserted the code into the “text” or code version of the page when in edit view within wordpress.
