you said you had a blog site. Is it also in wordpress?
Do you want to show posts from after a specific date on the home page and post before that specif date on your “older posts” page?
Hi sorry if lm not giving all information.
Yep the site is a WordPress one. I never knew it existed till l came across it via y-tube.
So when l set up the new WordPress site on my old .com site [that was deleted and this replaced it] So l used the transfer blog over widget.
This has a lot of graphic orientated postings as l make card samples for companies.
I would like to move a lot of the older posts over to a new page on the blog l have called Older Postings but keeping the newer ones live on the Home page. This is where they are published as matter of course via the New Posting section of WordPress.
Hope this might help a little better as questions ask means l can give more information.
Many thanks for taking the time out of your weekend to help me.

Just to be clear, did you already move the posts from your old site to the current one?
Hi Yes l moved the complete blog from
http://wwwaswcrafting.blogspot.co.uk/
to
http://www.aswcrafting.com/
l used a plug in that moved the whole blog from ‘googles site’ to my new home.
When l transferred the blog over it placed it in one page that’s called Home.
I want to now move some of those older posts to a new page withing my WordPress site.
If you look at the aswcrafting.com site you will see l have made a page/section ready to move them over to this new page/section.
Hope this help please ask any questions if you need more information.
Many thanks for your help in this matter
You want All the posts before the “A FRIEND IS LIKE AN OWL” post appear on the home page? And the “A FRIEND IS LIKE AN OWL” post and the posts after that on your “Older Postings” page?
If so, try putting this in your theme’s functions.php file to exclude the older posts from your home page:
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'my_post_queries' );
function my_post_queries( $query ) {
// not an admin page and it is the main query
if (!is_admin() && $query->is_main_query()){
// query the home page
if(is_home()){
add_filter('posts_where', 'filter_where');
}
}
}
function filter_where($where = '') {
$where .= " AND post_date > '2012-07-27'";
return $where;
}
Still working on the “Older Postings” page …
btw:
consider creating a child theme instead of editing Twenty Ten directly – if you upgrade the theme all your modifications will be lost.
