Such a Simple WordPress Mistake!
D'oh!
I just had a "D'oh" moment (in reference to Homer Simpson).
I just realized that I never set up my blog page on my website. Consequently, my blog posts were only showing up in the right hand column under "Recent Posts."
I had forgotten to choose a Post Page in my WordPress administrative menu when I set up my website 2 years ago!
So I updated the Settings/Reading by adding the Posts page "Blog" and updating my website navigation menu to include the Blog page.
Success!
What a simple, but profound mistake on my part considering I have been using WP for 10+ years.
D'oh!
I hope someone else learns from my mistake!

You are welcome, Debbie. We all make mistakes. So we all have the chance to learn from them.
Glen, do you mean that you connected all your blog posts from your profile to your website? Wasn't aware we could do that. Carol
No, I am referring to my blog posts on my website. I have a static page for my homepage. So I need to have a post page to display blog posts.
I think we all will!
It's the simple things that we seem to screw up, isn't it? Good thing you caught it!
My best,
Laurel

I am currently using my blog roll, but want to move to a static page soon. This is a good reminder. Thanks for sharing Glen
I am glad it helped, Rika. :)
