Displaying blog on different page

  • Hi,

    Here is my site so far Aizen Digital

    Okay so, I want my latest 3 blog posts to stay there on the front page, however I want the main blog page to be on another page.

    How do I do this?

    Thank you for any help, it’s much appreciated!

  • I only see 1 post on the homepage?

    You can do this by running a custom query & loop to output your content.

    I have only made 1 post so far, but I want to sort out this small things first so I can open up other pages on the site.

    So how would I do what you have suggested? Sorry, I’m a bit of a noob =[

    Read up on the get_posts() function.

    Also, I wanted more than just 1 blog

    How would I do that? On the WordPress dashboard, I can’t seem to figure out how to make a page that acts as a new blog =[

    Basically I will have a main blog called “Aizen Blog” and another blog which will have a lot of heavy plug ins and will be the tutorials page – I will hopefully have it so There is a list of tutorials with just a small snipet of text and a big picture – when clicked on it will show the blog post which will be a big tutorial video.

    Anyway, This means I need 2 blogs, but how would I set this up?

    From what I understand of your requirements, you’ll need 2 installations OR enable the multisite features.

    Oh jesus, this already sounds really hard.. What would I need to do?

    And I’m reading this “get posts” link, would I have to change which page is my “posts” page in my admin dashboard?

    Enable multisite in WP3.0.

    Using get_posts() will allow you to override whatever settings are in the backend. You can put a collection of posts anywhere on your site. ??

    Okay, I think I’m doing this all wrong,

    look here

    I simply went on the dashboard and selected to show the last 3 posts only – so the front page was fine – it now shows 3 posts and then the “older posts” link

    however I made the “blog” page which is the page I want the whole blog to show. – but as you can see its just .. bleh..

    how can I fix this?

    actually scratch that

    I just realized when I click older posts I will still be on the same page

    I’m so confused.

    I don’t want that big slideshow to show on my blog page, I should’ve changed which page displays the blog shouldnt I?! and then I have to recode that slideshow on a blank page, right?
