How to post posts on a different page in wordpress?

Q:I have just made a website in wordpress and I need to post posts on more than one page. I have the Home page which all my posts go too but I cant post anything to my other pages. I have a technology page and gaming page. I want to be able to post posts relevant to technology on the technology page and the same for gaming. Then have all my posts show on the home page. I don't know any coding so I will need you to explain very simply, sorry. Thank you.

 

 

 Ans1:

I don't remember the exact way I had this set up, but I'll make an attempt to help out.
First off, I seem to remember that you could not post things on separate pages *AND* have those posts show up on the front page; it was one or the other.
My workaround was to set up categories for all of my posts, and then set up pages that redirected to the category pages.
Everything was then on the front page, and users could filter posts based upon subject.

The basic setup:
You need this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/page…

Then, make all the pages you want, and set up corresponding categories. You can view category pages at yourwebsite.com/&cat=someNumber. You can figure out what's what there.

Then, edit each of the pages. At the bottom, it should have a box saying "Page Links To." Put the address to the corresponding category there, and save.

Once you get them all, try test-posting something of each category, then go to the pages and see what happens!

Cheers!

To get started you should choose a topic or niche to focus your blog on.

There is a lot of Competition, but the good thing is any specific questions you have along the way can be answered by just searching the internet or borrowing books from the library.

There are a lot of resources both free and paid. If you are looking for a resource that will cover the 2 points I mentioned (WordPress & marketing), I have personally found the following video tutorials very useful and they are a perfect fit for what you are looking for.

How to apply a wordpress theme downloaded from other websites?

Question: I've downloaded a few wordpress blog themes from other websites. They are in the zip file format. How do I apply them? Can I get a step by step guide?

Answer : So you have a theme that you either downloaded or purchased and it is on your hard drive now. Great! Make sure you leave the file as a .zip file - do NOT uncompress it.

Installation of the theme is easily accomplished by performing the following steps:

1. Log into your back office Dashboard.
2. Click on the Appearance Nav menu on the left hand side of the screen.
3. Once clicked, you will see the option underneath it for Themes. Click on Themes
4. At the top of the screen, you will see 2 tabs. Click on the tab that says, "Install Themes".
5. At the top of the new screen, you will see a sub-menu with the list of:
* Search | * Upload | * Featured | * Newest | * Recently Updated
Click on the Upload tab.

7. Once you have selected that file, click on the wInstall Now' button.
