How to add category page and multiple posts into navigation bar on blogger

Probloggers in one of the blogging group i belong  on whatsapp asked me

"how can I publish post into different pages other than the default front page?" 

 Here I'd like to share the way I'm using, hope you find it helpful.
By default, each time after you publishing a post, it goes to the default home page and display at the top above other posts.

To publish post into different pages, you can combine 3 features that Blogger provides: the tab, the label, and the forwarding page.



The idea is, first create a Label ( category ) by adding the Label name to at least one post, so that you can access that label directly at any time; then set up a Forwarding Page (one type of page that Blogger provides) to point to that Label's web address (URL), so that when people clicking on that page name, it will display all the posts in that Label (category).

Now to the tutorial 

1. Page name :

First let's ask a question: what page do you want to publish posts to? we need a page name. For example, if you'd like to publish tutorial to a specific page, we can set up a page called "tutorial ".


2. Label name :

Make sure you already have a Label called  tutorial " or put the label on all the post you want to let appear on the page, if  you don't have, create a new tutorial  post and add "tutorial " label to it. If you don't know how to add label to post... Then Google is your friend (joking), go to your post editor, you’ll see it on the right hand side of it

3. Find out that label's web address (URL).

We need that "tutorial" label's web address (URL). You can find out the URL by click on the label name at the bottom of the post, or at the label widget in your side bar (if you have one), the label web address (URL) will be showing in the address bar in your browser. Copy that URL for future using.

example, at the bottom of this post, I have a label name "page", after click on that, it comes to the "page" page. At the top of my browser, the address bar shows the URL: http://www.waplordcrib.blogspot.com/search/label/page  This is the URL we need in the future.

4. Set up pages as tabs :

After this, you will go to "layout" on your Blogger dashboard, then click on pages, it could be on the has taps showing on your blog topmost page or at the side of your page has a widget

5. Create a new Forwarding Page:

You will see a list of pages you have before and a "add external link"
Click on "add external link" to create a new forwarding page called "tutorial", and point it to that tutorial  label URL we just copied.

6. Once you finish step 5, you will get a new tab at the top of the page called "tutorial", and the "tutorial" tab is associated with your "tutorial" label. That means, visit the tutorial  tab is the same as visit tutorial  label.

7. From now on, whenever you creating a post, remember to add label "tutorial" or any label you want to use  to the post Once published, the post will be showing in the tutorial page (tab). You can verify this by clicking on the tutorial  tab at the top of of your blog.

You Done.

Summary

By finishing the above 7 steps, you can publish posts into a specific page. Please note the post will be showing at the default home page as well.
