Thanks Mahesh – yes, that helps and works. I had thought that I had tried that, but clearly hadn’t! My concern was that it would interfere with the homepage but I guess the “static homepage” overrides this layout function.
As for why we are using a category on the menu bar – simply because that was how we were told by a step-by-step guide we found on the web. Having never used wordpress before/set up a site, we have looked for advice on every step and this way was the explanation used.
If I were to create a page called Blog how would I actualy post posts to it? I guess i would insert a widget?
Is there a reason that suggests that it would be better to change to a Page rather than Category now (before too many blog posts go live) or does it not really matter either way?
Thanks again,
John
