Title: Adding posts Last modified: August 31, 2016 --- # Adding posts * Resolved [anotherblogger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anotherblogger/) * (@anotherblogger) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-posts-7/) * Fresh off the blogging boat, and never having used wordpress I am unable to find where on Longevity 1.4.3 I can make my posts visible on the website. * Within the admin-wp area of my website under dashboards is “posts”. Clicking on it takes me to my posts. After publishing them and then viewing on my website page it doesn’t go to the post when I click on the read more link. Instead I get a page not found. * I am watching youtube video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oiov0L4blIw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oiov0L4blIw) * At 24:35 the author makes reference to a ‘slider page’ that he goes to under the appearance page and enters the post name into. Where is this equivalent on longevity? I am lost at this time. Please help me!

I can do a quick check of the code. * Regarding the slider page and video you watched, it depends on the theme being used because each theme if it includes a built-in content slider, can do that. Longevity does not have a built-in content slider. There are plugins that can be installed into your website that can do that kind of thing though. * But, it sounds like the priority here is to get your post to show instead of Page Not Found. * Thread Starter [anotherblogger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anotherblogger/) * (@anotherblogger) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-posts-7/#post-6913644) * Permalink is set at [http://www.aquaponicsworks.com](http://www.aquaponicsworks.com) * That’s also the name of the website url. The curves on the homepage seem appropiate to the subject matter which is why I chose it. So, if a widget is necessary to use for a content slider, what widget do I need to download? * Theme Author [Shaped Pixels](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shaped-pixels/) * (@shaped-pixels) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-posts-7/#post-6913656) * For permalink settings, this is found in the Admin area if you go to Settings >> Permalinks * You should see a list of options like: * Plain Day and Name Month and Name Numeric Post Name ….etc. * Which one are you using, or are you using a custom one? When I looked at your post links on the titles and Read More button, each post has the same link: * [http://www.aquaponicsworks.com/What_Is_Aquaponics](http://www.aquaponicsworks.com/What_Is_Aquaponics)? * I would also recommend not naming a category as “Archives” because WordPress already has that functionality built in. Perhaps renaming your category to something different? * We’ll tackle the content slider after the above is solved… * Thread Starter [anotherblogger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anotherblogger/) * (@anotherblogger) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-posts-7/#post-6913667) * Ok thank you, changing the permlink fixed accessing the blog articles on all the posts. Is a slider still necessary then? With the category archive I was trying to get a horizontal menu option above the fold, but just haven’t figured it out yet. I am hoping the youtube video will have it there. * Theme Author [Shaped Pixels](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shaped-pixels/) * (@shaped-pixels) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-posts-7/#post-6913694) * That video only applied to that theme he was showing. But sliders are used for displaying a series of images, images with caption text, content, etc. There a ton of sliders available as plugins, so it really depends on what you need. Check out the [https://wordpress.org/plugins/smart-slider-3/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/smart-slider-3/) plugin and it’s demos to see if that works for your needs. * As for a menu, you will need to make a custom menu for your site. I have a series of basic setup tutorials you can check out, and one there will help you make a menu. * [http://www.shapedpixels.com/support/basic-theme-setup](http://www.shapedpixels.com/support/basic-theme-setup) * For the Longevity theme specific tutorials, you can find them here: * [http://www.shapedpixels.com/setup-longevity](http://www.shapedpixels.com/setup-longevity) Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total) The topic ‘Adding posts’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://i0.wp.com/themes.svn.wordpress.org/longevity/1.5.2/screenshot.png) * Longevity * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/longevity/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/longevity/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/longevity/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/theme/longevity/reviews/) * 5 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Shaped Pixels](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shaped-pixels/) * Last activity: [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-posts-7/#post-6913694) * Status: resolved
