Kenneth – Yes, that blog is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for finding that!

Syahir – I’m going to play with that suggestion and see if I can’t get it to what my head is wanting!

Thank you both so much for the replies. I think adding that feature will really make my blog function more how I am hoping. Also, as for the pages being static and always providing the same info – you are absolutely correct. I think I’ll go ahead and not only try to get the posts attached there at the bottom but also write some good blurbs about exactly what that page (or cooking character rather is what the pages represent) is about.

Thank you both again! I’ll keep you updated on how it comes along!

Ya I can for sure try to explain. So I have my categories on the side of my blog. You can click on them and then it will bring you to that category page with all the posts linked to that category.

That works wonderfully. So what I’m wondering is if I can have the posts link to actual “pages” on the blog. You can see my blog at http://www.faremaidenscook.com and probably see better what I mean. Right now, when you click on any of the pages, other than home, it goes to a pretty much blank page that has a mini description. So I’m looking for either one of two things I would love to have happen instead:

1) When you click on the specific page tab at the top in brings you to almost the same thing as when you click on a categories link on the side.

or

2) If I can add a more direct link to say within the pages something like “look at my posts here” and then you click it and it brings you to the posts connected with that category (and also page name).

Gosh I hope this makes a little more sense. Just right now I feel like my pages aren’t serving a purpose and my whole blog is about different cooking types so I would love the pages to correspond to the posts as well as the categories.

Thanks again!
