Wordpress - Page Widget

I will try to answer this for you, though your wording is veru confusing. A 'post' and as 'page' are two separate things in Wordpress, so using both in one sentence throws me off. But I think I know what you are trying to get to.

To have static content and posts on your home page, I would just make 1 post with the static content and click the "make this stick to the front' sticky button. That way it stays there at the top. Then your normal posts will rotate below that particular one.

As far as adding a link into the 'page' widget, only pages go there. You can use the 'recent posts' widget to show links to posts. If you need a link in the header navigation to the category page, then you can just manually add that to the theme code.

(Some themes have automated ways to add/remove links into the navigation section. I have not used the theme you are using so I do not know if there are special functions included)

If you want to mix links to posts and pages in a widget, you can use a text widget and add the individual links manually or even the 'links/blogroll" widget and add them that way.

Hope that helps,

Greg

Greg -

I'm sorry for the confusing wording. Wordpress uses the term "posts page" in the sticky page setup so I was trying to be consistent.

The answer to the menu may well be a text widget with links to the pages and also to the category, however I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a simple solution that wouldn't require manual input if pages were added.

Oh yea, in the Reading Settings, it does use that term. ;-)
I would just keep the -Front page displays = your latest posts- and make one post 'sticky' to keep it at the top.

Can you send me a link to your site (PM it or put it here) and let me see how it is set up? It will be easier for me to analyze.

Greg - I appreciate the offer. The client changed her mind about the location of the link to the blog posts so a simple sticky post and text box will accomplish the objectives.
