Template for Pages that need to be showing posts

    I have my home page showing all the posts I write, and the sidebar on the right, just as on the theme preview (without that giant header picture), which is a perfect layout for what I need.
    However, I would like to have this layout (posts+sidebar) on the other pages -I have News, Lists and Reviews. These pages would show posts that I have assigned certain categories to, as I’ve used a plugin to then assign to pages which categories to show (basically, 4 out of 5 pages that I have, are showing posts).
    I have tried to set Pages to use Full Width Template, but the layout gets messed up, fonts change and sidebar disappears. When using Home Page Template, nothing appears.
    My guess is that I would have to change some .php file(s) so that I could make a Template to use for these pages. The problem is that, although I have tried, I have no idea of what these codes in .php actually mean, so I can’t make the layout that I want (posts+sidebar) myself.

    Any help would be great. Thank you!

    Please disregard this topic, I have been using wrong approach all together. Apologies for this, but being a new to WordPress can be quite overwhelming, even when you thought you’ve read all the ”how to” tutorials ??
