Seperate posts to another page?

    I’m new to setting up wordpress blogs. I’m currently setting up a blog where I would like to have a seperate page that shows the site “news & updates” from the main page which displays the content.

    For example, if the blog is a food blog and the main page shows the most recent recipes (posts excluding “news”), can I have a link to a “news” page within the same site that would show posts for “news”?

    Yes, absolutely.

    Your news posts would be in a separate category.

    On the main page, you’d modify the template to show just the posts in the “recipes” category.

    You can get to the news with the link to its archive page, typically

    http://yourhostname/category/news

    In the Appearance > Menus you can add a menu item for any particular category as long as the theme you’ve selected supports custom menus.

    Understanding the template hierarchy may help in making different types of posts show up on different “pages”.
