How to create a static page where to add posts in wordpress? - wordpress

I am new with Wordpress and I need some help.
I have added this theme to my website (theam demo link) and I am trying to create a page where I can add new post and every post must be on the same page and with a read more button (like home page from the link).

Go to Settings > Reading and under "Front page displays" select "Your latest posts."
You should go to the WordPress site and read the getting started as this is a basic setting. Also, read the documentation that comes from the theme developer. It will have further information as well.

In your WordPress admin,
go to Pages » Add New to create a new page Like Blog
go to Settings » Reading
under the Front page displays option choose A static page.
under the Blog page displays option choose A Blog page.

Hello,
You should create a child theme where you can enter a custom template where you can enter the custom loop you need to have the posts you want to show.
Then you will need to create a page and activate it with the custom
template you made.
Hope that can help, however there are a lot of other ways to achieve what you want and this one is not the most beginner friendly but i think it is the most developer friendly, so i think you should at least check it out.

install the plugin visual composer it will help you a lot

Cannot create Elementor Posts page in Wordpress although I have selected in Reading page

I want to use my Posts page with Elementor modules.
I have done my Homepage like that
but cannot do the same with Posts page.
I have created an empty page,
added some modules.
And selected this page as Posts page in Reading page.
But when I click a page on my website,
my Elementor Posts page is not seen,
the default Wordpress page is seen.
Update :
I'm using Neve theme on Wordpress v5.8
My website address is Tubefavorites.com
My homepage with Elementor and posts page with default Wordpress has different fonts
and my homepage and posts page's components are in different order.
(In homepage its Tags, Categories, ...
In my posts page its Tags, Last Posts, ...
I'm working online in browser (its not local).
There is no error on Chrome Console.
Update end.
Currently I'm trying this in Turkish pages.
I will make the English Elementor page after I fix this.
How can I fix this?
Thanks
Do you have Elementor enabled for post?
Thus, if I understood correctly, you have created a page post and want to add it as homepage. You should go to settings - reading and select via dropdown the page you have created! Then, you will see your page as homepage and not the default one
There is also an explanation in support forum, that someone has the same problem. Please read below:
"Looks like you’re trying to edit your Posts page that has been assigned in your WordPress Reading settings (Settings > Reading). If this is the case, you may not be able to edit the assigned Posts page directly with Elementor (Basic version).
You can try deselecting the page (in the “Posts Page” box within your Reading settings) then try editing this page with Elementor"
link to the source: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-load-posts-page-with-elementor/
Thus, disable your page through Settings - Reading, edit/modify (whatever you want) your Post page. After that, you could add your page blog posts URL to the meny item (or use this URL to wherever is nessecary)
EDITED
What plugin are you using for the translations?
I saw your homepage playing correct, right? Thus, you have selected your custom page correctly, through the Settings - Reading.
Now, if you want to see the same results in Turkish, you need to translate your home page too! So, add the translation in turkish language too, or duplicate the english version for turkish one and it will play!
UPDATED
I think there is an issue with the blog page (and single post template, as I am reading in WP forum for this theme). Try to check inside Appearence -> Customize, if there is any options there, thus could change the blog template. Somehow the theme overwrites your options. Furthermore, take a look at the blog theme's doc here:
https://docs.themeisle.com/article/1306-neve-blog-archive-options
I have learned that, I have to use Templates page, in Elementor Pro.
I didn't have been selected it.
Thanks to Hakkı Uçar for this
and for installing and for helping.

Can't Modify Wordpress Theme from Dashboard

Has anyone ever worked with the Booard theme created – but no longer sold or supported – by Theme-Paradise? My boss has asked me to update a simple button link on the page below and I can’t for the life of me figure out how to modify a page with this theme. As I'm new to the company I don't yet have access to the server to modify the theme files, so I'm confined to the WP dashboard. I've looked through the editor but no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The page I need help with: http://www.tech-30.com/careers/
I found it. If you click on Edit Page > 'Screen Options' at the top of the page and enable 'Custom Fields' it opens up a JSON page builder with shortcode text field entries further down on the page under the post field entry. I was able to change the link from there. It took a while to update so I wasn't seeing it on the site for whatever reason.

Is http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos a separate website?

I just wondering whether http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos is a subdomain under subdirectory?
I am just curious to know how we can do that.
I have a website called http://quantumbuddy.com/ and I want to share spirtual video the same way here shoutmeloud did.
Can anyone let me know how they did?
The website Shoutmeloud is a very popular website of a very popular Indian blogger Harsh Agarwal. The website is WordPress built as told by him many times. Regarding your question - the http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos is not a directory because if it had been a WordPress directly there would be a login url - http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos/wp-login.php, but it is not there.
Seeing the design of http://www.shoutmeloud.com/videos i think it is a post category (videos) which shows the post contained in it(here videos).
In wordpress this comes by default, all you have to do is to create a post category and add post in it. Then in these post add youtube videos embed code.
You can easily achieve that by going to your wordpress dashboard then add a new page and name it like videos then insert some video files there whether it's a link or from your uploaded videos then save it.
To check the page, Add it to your main menu for example then save it.
The url would be like http://quantumbuddy.com/videos.
so basically the videos is the name of the page.
I checked your site and it only contain one link in the menu. Add a page and add it to your menu bar and it would display next to the Blog link.
The website you are referring to is using Genesis Theme. You can find it here

How to create a static page on Ghost Blog?

I created a page file named "page-timemachine.hbs" on my custom theme's root directory followed a tutorial, and I have added a item on my blog "/ghost/settings/navigation/",like this
add new navigation
But when I visit the link, I got a "404".Did I made anything wrong? thx
You also need to add the page in the admin GUI. You do that by doing the following (assuming you are on a fairly recent version of Ghost):
Add a new post
Click on Post Settings on the top right of the interface.
Click the checkbox Turn this post into a static page
After that is done you can simply edit the post as usual and after you've published it, it should appear instead of your 404-error.

How to add custom URLs to my WordPress template files?

I'm developing a WordPress theme and I need to have a custom URL for some kind of content.
For example, I need to have a page to show some article details. Now, i've created a page template called "Article", and so i've to create a new page and give it the page template "Article"
(I get the url http://mydomain.com/article?id=123)
It works fine, but now i'm having dozens of this pages, and it's a mess to create them all on every installation of this theme, so i want to do it in my theme code.
I saw something near that on BuddyPress, where you can use /member/ and it redirects to a member page. I just wanna know how to do so.
Thanks!
If you are running wordpress 3.0 I would recommend making a custom post type for your articles. That would allow you to control the URL in the way that you want and also allow you to use more sophisticated full text urls if you wanted to.
Here are some links to some tutorials about how to make a custom post type to get you started:
http://kovshenin.com/archives/custom-post-types-in-wordpress-3-0
http://kovshenin.com/archives/extending-custom-post-types-in-wordpress-3-0/
The second one has an example file that you can download and edit to help you get started.
Cheers,
Paul
