Creating separate page for news in a WordPress website - wordpress

I have: index page of website with a section for latest news (short version with a link).
I want: the link in short news have to direct to another page with full version. For every news this page will be similar. Can I do it automatically? In WordPress I will add new post and I don't know how it will create new page of website with a link on it, using my template of this page.

In the news template, right side of the side bar, you can select the template, usually it comes with default template,
Change it to Blog template. Then you can work on it further.
Good luck

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.

How to create a static page where to add posts in 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

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

Blog section within wordpress

I have a site and I'd like a sub section of that site to be blog.
Details:
The site is fairly dynamic.
I have image carousels that get populated via custom-post-types utilizing featured images.
I have titles and headers being populated via custom-post-types and etc... That's all in the index file.
I want to create a pure blog (i.e. news style subsection of the site that aggregates latest blog posts on the www.domain.com/blog, has widget areas that post related content, comment sections, etc etc...) as a subfolder of the landing page.
I was thinking that I would create a new instance of wordpress and put it in a subdirectory of the domain called blog. Obviously this is not an optimal solution.
I'd appreciate any help.
No reason to do another install of wordpress. Just create a separate template and go from there.

Post pages in Wordpress 2.9

I'm trying to use a posts page in Wordpress. For the uninitiated, this is a page (other than the home page) which features all your blog posts. You essentially turn on the static home page and point Wordpress at a custom index. Then you tell Wordpress to use another custom template as your "posts page"; thereafter, any post you make will wind up there.
My custom template for the 'Blog' page shows up as expected until I define it as the posts page. When I do, the template reverts to my custom index and I get no posts. When I undefine it as the posts page, it goes back to my template. What am I missing? I'm new to using this method, as it used to be done with a plugin prior to WP 2.9
So, I figured out the solution and wanted to share. Thanks for all your input, everyone.
The problem was with the name I chose for the template. I had called it "blog.php", which works fine when creating an ordinary page template. But when using a page as a posts page, Wordpress has some specific setup rules. The pertinent section of documentation, which I scoured the entire internet for using hours of my life I'll never get back, is hidden here:
Also, any Template assigned the Page will be ignored and the theme's index.php (or home.php if it exists) will control the display of the posts. (from here).
So, I named my template "home.php", since I wasn't using a home.php in this particular install, and I was off to the races. Anyway, thanks for the answers!
BTW, I think this may have been what Richard M was getting at.
Your problem might be in creating "templates" and the single post (single.php) You can create a template for any of your pages by putting this in the top of your page (after the first < ? php:
/**Template Name: ****templatenamehere**** #package WordPress * #subpackage Default_Theme */
...rest of code
This allows you to create a page called "posts" which references your new template. This way you can create a new template and then call it through a page. If this is confusing or you have tried this let me know and I will try to give you more details if you need. Thanks
