How To Add Blog Page To Wp

A page is an area on your site where you can display content. A page can be about anything at all. Some of the most common pages on a website include Home, About, and Contact pages.

You can add as many pages to your site as you would like, and you can update your pages as many times as you want. After you create a page, you can add it to your site's navigation menu so your visitors can find it.

This guide explains everything you need to know about pages.

View Your Pages

When you first get started on WordPress.com, we'll create a few pages for you, such as a Home page, an About page, and a Contact page. To view your site's pages, click on Pages in your dashboard. On this screen, you will see four tabs:

  • Published: pages that are visible on your site.
  • Drafts: pages you're still working on that haven't been published yet.
  • Scheduled: pages you have set to be published at a future time. Here's how.
  • Trashed: pages you have deleted. They can be restored from the trash for 30 days. After that, they are permanently deleted.

If you have multiple users on your website, you will also see tabs for pages you have created (the Me tab) and pages created by all users on your site (the Everyone tab).

You can search all of your pages by clicking on the magnifying glass icon in the top right corner.

Each page has some options you will find by clicking on the three dots next to a page's title. These options include:

  • Edit (see below)
  • View page
  • Stats
  • Copy page (create a duplicate of the page)
  • Copy link (see below)
  • Set as Homepage (see below)
  • Set as Posts Page (see below)
  • Export page
  • Trash

The posts page is a page that will display all your posts and update automatically each time you publish a new post. The layout of your posts page is determined by your theme and cannot be customized. If you would like more control over how your posts are displayed, do not set a posts page.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get rid of the Edit link that's showing on my page?

It's not possible to get rid of that Edit button but do not worry! It only shows to you as the site's owner. Other people visiting your site do not see that button and they do not have the power to edit your site.

How do I add pages to my site's menu?

Create and publish your pages first using the steps in this guide. Add pages to your menu only after you have published them. Please see our guide on setting up your site's menus
