    I would like to do something that should be simple.
    I want to create a page that displays Upcoming Clinics, in a similar way that it shows my blog posts. I’d like to call it my upcoming clinics page. I know, creative, right?
    I’ve already created a post category for those posts, and excluded those posts from my regular blog or home page.
    Now, all I have to do is make a page that only shows the posts with the category for upcoming clinics.
    I can easily copy my home or blog page to make a new template. I just can’t figure out how to change the new template to only show the one category I want it to.
    What magic piece of code must I use?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    WordPress already has category pages built-in, so you just need to use http://www.coachmansdelight.com/category/upcoming-clinics/ 🙂

    Ha! I knew it was something simple. You should see all of the coding gymnastics people are suggesting to do just to accomplish this one simple task!

    One small followup question:
    Blog pages force the featured photo down to a reasonable size for the blog list. This page however does not. Suggestions?

    …and while I’m asking, I assume that this will sort the posts in the order in which they were written, the way the blog posts are sorted.
    Since this is more along the line of an upcoming events page, it would be better that they sort in the order the event is scheduled for.

    That will require a change specific to the theme, but since that is a commercial theme, we ask that you please go to their official support channel, so you can get support from the people who know it best: https://my.studiopress.com/wp-login.php

    Forum volunteers are not given access to commercial products, so they would not know how to modify it properly. Other community members who may have faced your issue might be able to help you but your best bet is your product’s developer. Keep in mind we encourage you to use the official support venues, as it allows the developers to be aware of issues with their code and gives back to the community in a more robust way.

    Yes, exactly.

    Since this is more along the line of an upcoming events page, it would be better that they sort in the order the event is scheduled for.

    Have you considered using something like https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/the-events-calendar/ instead?
