Hi Kat,
Yes, the "Blog" page you refer to works, "read more" on the articles works however when I add a new blog post, it appears on the blog summary (Articles particle) page, but "Read more" does not work until I add that article excplicitly to a menu.
As per Damir's previous post:But if you connect the Articles » Category Blog and that Category that you are using in particle to the menu it will use that menu item, you only need to assign different outline to that menu item so you have specific layout for the blog posts for that category.
he said you can make the articles appear and "Read more" work without explicitly adding each article to a menu.
Thanks for your help.
