Though there is only one dynamic page in a blog for posts and we cannot post to more than that one page, we can create the appearance that we have posted to more than one page. We organize posts by assigning categories to them. Categories do not display until there is one published post assigned to each one.

You create a custom menu and add the dynamic categories pages created by the software when you publish into the custom menu.

I am setting up various categories (by pages) for my posts. Let's say I have three pages: DIY, Dessert Recipes, and a Blog.

I create 3 posts: "Make your own deodorant", "Grandma's Apple Pie", and "My adventure on the El". How do I move each post to its appropriate page?

Thanks!
