You can set your home page to be a static page and many themes even offer a homepage template to use for that purpose.

Maybe that's what I need. I wish I could find examples to know for sure. I'll play with that angle. Thank you.

Hello Theresa, You should be able at add a widget called Recent post to a side bar. Then all your post are shown in that side bar widget.
Hope this helps !

I have that, thanks. It disappears when someone starts to scroll through my post and I am afraid that they will just exit if they don't want to read the next post that automatically follows.

Instead of recent posts, some themes offer "related posts" ... there are also plugins which offer related posts. All of the themes here offer related posts as a built-in feature - https://themesdna.com

If there is no setting in the theme you can try in the WordPress admin. Under the dashboard click Setting / Read. You have a choice of how many posts are displayed and if it is displayed in full or summary.

Maybe it's a glitch in my theme. I tried to display summary and updated it, but nothing changed. Thank you.
