Hi Lena,
1. To enable the sidebars on the static pages, please navigate to Dashboard > Pages > Edit Page > Page Options > Show Sidebar.
2. With the theme and WordPress settings, you can only have one blog page at the same time, but I can give you shortcodes to have blog posts on the home page and on the blog page too.
Navigate to Dashboard > Pages and create a Blog and Home pages. After doing that
Navigate to Settings > Reading > Reading Settings > A static page (select below)
Homepage > Home
Post Page > Blog
Also, use shortcode functionality to display post on the home page. see below guide.
To display all latest post use:
[ashe_blog]
To select specific categories in the blog feed shortcode, you just need to add the “categories” attribute to it. You can list multiple categories separated by a comma:
[ashe_blog categories="food,travel"]
or select a single one like this:
[ashe_blog categories="food"]
Also, posts per page could be limited by adding the “amount” attribute” like this:
[ashe_blog categories="food" amount="5"]
To select specific posts in the blog feed shortcode, you just need to add the “post_ids” attribute to it and list selected post ids separated by a comma like this:
[ashe_blog post_ids="1,23,157"]
Hope it was helpful.
Kind Regards
.
