Created Static Homepage, Now Blog Page Does Not Show Recent Posts

    I used the “Reading” section to set it up so that the home page is static. I created a page with my homepage.php template and assigned it to the “Front Page.” Then I created a page titled “blog” with the default template and assigned it as the “posts page.”

    The homepage shows up fine when you go to the homepage (https://www.peainthepodcast.com/wordpress).

    However, when I go to the permalink for the blog (https://www.peainthepodcast.com/wordpress/blog), the header and footer show up but none of the blog posts show up.

    Any idea what I’m doing wrong?

  • The display of those posts would be controlled by your theme’s index.php so you may want to look at that.

    From Administration > Settings > Reading

    Posts page – Select in the drop-down box the name of the Page that will now contain your Posts. If you do not select a Page here, your Posts will only be accessible via other navigation features such as category, calendar, or archive links. Even if the selected Page is Password protected, visitors will NOT be prompted for a password when viewing the Posts Page. Also, any Template assigned the Page will be ignored and the theme’s index.php will control the display of the posts (this may change in future releases).
