  How can I add posts to a different page? I saw a previous comment that said to create a category page. I have my categories created but I do not see how to create a page nor add them to the menu. Please help.
  Thanks! Emily

  Hi Emily!

  You’re right, you’ll want to read through this guide about adding a category page to your site’s navigation menu.

  I hope this helps :)

  Hey – I read the guide and it makes sense the only problem is that what I see on my end doesn’t match up to the guide. The only category option I see is under Dashboard –> posts–> categories and there, it is only a list of the categories. There is no option to add them to a menu as the guide states. Under my menu page, there is no option to add categories as per the instructions. I’m a bit confused as to why I’m not seeing the proper thing.

  Hi again, Emily :)

  Rather than going to your Posts → Categories page, please try navigating to Appearance → Menus. On this page, you’ll find your categories. Select your category and click Add to Menu.

  Hi, I’ve looked there as well and there are no categories there. Can I send you a screen grab?

  Thanks for the screenshots!

  Try clicking the Screen options tab in the top right corner when you’re on Appearance → Menus and make sure the Categories box is checked.
