List of blog posts in its own page
9 replies · Started by Louis on October 29, 2021
I removed the right sidebar that had a list of my 42 blog posts.
I then created, Blog tab, as a primary menu item. When it is clicked, it goes to the most recent blog post.
How do I direct a user when they click Blog on the Primary Menu to see a list of all blog topics, not just the most recent one?
Thank you.

An update: I now see that it has all the blog postings on the page the user is directed to when the click the Blog link on the Primary menu. I would still prefer to have just the hyperlinked list of posts there, that take the user to the individual post. Is this possible?
Hi Louie,
Not sure I fully understand your question, but you can add custom links as a menu item, you can define whatever link you want to assign to that menu item.
Let me know if I miss anything :)
Thank you for the note. I want to have a page that just has a list of the post names and hyperlinks to them. Guessing I will have to build that page manually? I thought that it would like when I had Blog Right side Layout under Customizing -> layout -> Sidebar
Would this page be the actual blog page?
Do you have an example that you can show us?
yes. but I do not see how I can send a screenshot.
Ok - I switch it back to right side content so you could see. go to sales-getters.com and look at the right side panel with the list of blog posts. This is what I want on a web page the the user can click from the primary menu.
That's a recent post widget.
WordPress offers a Latest Posts block which you can try:
https://wordpress.org/support/article/latest-posts-block/
Or you can use a plugin like this to turn the recent post widget into a short code then use it page content:

Well - I think I found a workaround using Customizing ▸ Layout
Blog. I chose Excerpt and that will work.
However, if you would offer screenshots or videos to be uploaded it would have save us both time. :-)
Glad to hear :)
