Pages are not part of the chronological blog stream and are more suited to static content that does not need to be updated regularly. To add a page:

2. Select Page.
3. Give your page a Title.
4. You can add content (e.g. text, images, links) into the input field.
5. Once you have finished, select Publish.

You can nest pages under other pages by making one the parent of the other. You can do this from the Page Attributes section of the Add Page/Edit screen by selecting the appropriate Parent page from the drop-down menu.

If you want to change the order of your pages:

1. From the Pages menu on the blog Dashboard, select All Pages.
2. Select edit on the page you want to set as your first page.
3. From the Page Attributes section, input the Order number for the page. 1 is the first page, 2 is the second, etc.
4. Repeat steps 2 & 3 for each page in your blog.
