    "A great feature of Genesis is the built-in ability to create single category blog pages. These pages will show posts from a specific category when using the blog page template. You can create as many post category pages as you’d like"

    I am using MPP for my site: http://www.naomiclifford.com.

    I want multiple blog pages - a different category for each.

    Not possible within the theme, it seems. See my blog template pages http://www.naomiclifford.com/news/ and http://www.naomiclifford.com/true-life-elopement-stories/ - they are showing exactly the same content. Even though I have set the custom field to query_args and the categories to 9 and 12.

    Unless I am missing something. Please do enlighten me if so.

    Plus, how do I create a page using more than one category?

    naomiklein,

    Would you mind posting the value for query_args value for each page?

    Sure, rfmeier - thanks for getting involved.

    True-life elopement stories


    id=9

    My blog page template in Genesis theme settings is set to show all categories x 10 posts.

    Naomiklein,

    Sorry for the late reply. The forums haven't been notifying me when a reply is made...

    Instead of id=9 and id=12, use cat=9 and cat=12

    This is demonstrated within the WP_Query http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Category_Parameters
