Forgive me if this question has been asked before. I tried to search it, but from what I read it either was to advanced for me to understand or I just missed it.
Simply put, the front page on my WPMU will need to have a its one blog page for news, press releases, etc. as well as host other blogs. However, when I use the "Reading Settings" in the dashboard, the blog is a blank page.
I read where one of the blog plugins is suppose to address this, but I don't see where or how.
Can someone provide a "dumbed down" explaination on how I can make this possible. Does this really require extra coding?
Having posts displayed on the front page is not the problem. But I need for the post to appear on the page created for the posts to appear.
As you can see, the front page displays links (Latest Campaigns) to other blogs that have been created (using the blogs widget). However, in the main nav area (at the top) there is a page called blog. I want this page to display blog posts that are created by the host blog.

Hiya,
I'm afraid I don't understand what you want to do. Are you asking how to have posts displayed on the frontpage?
Thanks,

I hope this clear. Forgive me if it isn't.

Ah, gotcha. On "Setting -> Reading" you need to set the "Posts page" option to "blog".
Thanks,

No, that is not it. When I do this, the blog page shoes what I want to be the front page. Take a look for yourself.
The posts appear on this page.

It does not show up when I click on the blog link.

Hmm, Maybe it's something to do with the theme you're using. I'm not really sure.
Hopefully someone else will have more input.
Thanks,

A lot of work has gone into this. Is there anyone else who can help. Thanks Andrew for trying to help.
