post page in wordpress - wordpress

In the wordpress reading settings, where you set your "blog" page to post page,
even if I create a custom template for the blog - or add addition text/custom fields etc.
nothing seems to appear....
as far i understood , those will be ignored... as it is set static...
is there a other way, to create a custom page ("blog"), where you can add all those post into this page , style them, add text as well

If you're asking, how can I make a page of posts then there are many answers to this question. I personally ended up using these 2 plugins:
Pages Posts (which lets you present posts of a specific category or tag on a page)
Simply Exclude (Lets you selectively exclude categories and tags from page)
both can be installed via the plugins search

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.

Add Posts page slug to Single Post permalink structure

Does anyone know if it's possible to place WordPress Blog POSTS in a unique directory?
In other words:
mywebsite.com/blog/Post-A/
mywebsite.com/blog/Post-B/
mywebsite.com/blog/Post-C/
I'd like to create /blog/ which I believe is done by creating a PAGE but that doesn't seem possible.
I've googled this for the last few hours and still can't figure it out.
The only way you're probably going to be able to do this without a plugin is by utilizing Categories and a custom permalinks structure.
Navigate to Posts > Categories
Add a new Category
Apply the Category to the desired posts
Navigate to Settings > Permalinks
Select Custom Structure and apply the following structure: /%category%/%postname%/
There are also plugins that expand endpoints and routing. https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-permalinks/
If your goal is to not have the posts on the front page, you can also set the Blog page to a specific page in Wordpress.
Create two new Pages (not to be confused with a post)
Navigate to Settings > Reading
Set Front page displays to A Static Page
Select the Pages to be displayed for the Front page and the Posts page
The Blogroll (Posts page) will then appear under the endpoint of the defined Page's slug. However, the individual posts permalink will not have the Blogroll Page's slug in the route.

Custom page in Wordpress plugin

I am creating simple plugin, and I prepared few pages: add.php, edit.php, delete.php and list.php. I've used add_menu_page and add_submenu_page - so I understand why they are visible in admin menu. How to create page (or custom URL with parameter) without putting this into menu? I'd like to add link to edit page and delete url (code executed by plugin) on listing page - something like in posts listing page but can't find function to achieve this.
Here are two possible solutions for this questions:
How do you add a WordPress admin page without adding it to the menu?
Personally i havent tried it but it like the one where you remove the item from the menu after you set things up like normal.
There is also a great plugin called the WP Router that can help you setup totally unique urls with the callback you desire.

Wordpress Tags Error/Issue

I am using wordpress - and there is a way to publish pages and posts.
I am creating Posts and for that you can add tags (which just give you more keywords to rank for it shows up at the bottom of the posts - wordpress creates pages with these tags and it ranks for the tags in the search engines)
I created all these links inside the posts - and now after checking the
links they are fine on the main post page but for all the tags which come with that posts - the actual links get screwed up by wordpress bc they add a /tag/ before
the link.
This is the URL which gets created thats comes with the posts.
Example :-http://www.sitename.com/tag/tagname/
Please help
Verify if you have in the used theme the tag.php file, if not, then use one, for reference check the one from "Twentyeleven" WordPress template. (http://codex.wordpress.org/Tag_Templates)
In your dashboard, Settings > Permalinks, set to "Default", then save, then check "Post name" and save it again.
Good luck! :)

Displaying full details of blog posts on the homepage of a wordpress theme that does not allow it by default

I am new to Wordpress. I got this template that I want to use for my site. The template link is here. By default this template allows you to put all sorts of plugins on the homepage. Problem is I don't really want to style my blog the way the template comes. What I just want is to have the full details of my blog posts showing on the homepage and then the categories by the side. Does any know of any plugin that I can use to display blog posts full details instead of just lists (with or without thumbnails)
Your homepage should use the file index.php from the theme (located in wp-content/themes/name_of_your_theme). Open it and search for the_excerpt. It should be located in the Loop, as many things related to Posts in Wordpress.
If what you want to display in the homepage is the same thing than when a single post is displayed, then open single.php in the same directory. That's the theme file used when displaying a single post. Search for the_content inside the Loop and see how it's done. You want to do the same in index.php, more or less copypasting or replacing carefully the_excerpt by the_content. Well, it'll be a little harder than that (you've to understand what you remove, replace or copy) but that's the idea.
Relevant documentation in Codex: the_excerpt (esp. the 2nd paragraph) and Template Hierarchy (answers the questions related to which file is called for Homepage, single post, a category, a page, etc)
