How can I get my blog page to look and act like a blog?

Can you please give URL to see what you mean.

Sure. https://jonathanstein.org/whole-being-confidential-newsletter/

At the moment, as you’ll see, it’s a blog waiting to happen. I plan to post newsletter articles, etc. there. But I don’t know how to initiate the functionality.

Thanks for your help!

Best,
Jonathan

If you add some posts to the site(wp-admin –> Posts> Add New), it will appear in blog page.

Can you tell if I have it configured properly so that it posts will show up in the “The WBC” page?

And how do I activate a sidebar with archives. etc, only on that page?

Again, gratitude…

I can’t tell by seeing only front end.

Blog page, usually set up by Settings –> Reading –> Posts page

For some themes, there will be separate theme options..

If your theme is widget ready, you can add widgets by going to themes–> widgets

Thanks Gisha. I’ll see what I can do.

Someone told me to go to Settings>Reading and create a static Home page and a static Articles page, and then select them in the dropdown box. I still don’t get this. It seems to me that it’s only possible to create ONE static page in Settings>Reading, and you can only select ONE Posting page from the drop down also.

If I select Blog or Articles in the drop down, I end up getting an error message telling me that the page cannot be found.

Any ideas on this one?
