I'm confused about the Blogs/News menu on the Media Pro Light skin.

The first URL that it goes to is http://decorativeconcreteking.com/blogs/ when you click on "Blogs/News". It has a header of "Site Blog" at the top when you land on the page (there is nothing on the page other than the header).

When you click on "User Blog" it takes you to http://decorativeconcreteking.com/site_blogs which is full of blog posts (no problem here, I understand what this page is doing).

When you click on "Articles" it takes you to http://decorativeconcreteking.com/articles with a header of "Articles" on the page (nothing here on the page - I don't know what is suppose to be showing up here).

When you click on "News" it takes you to http://decorativeconcreteking.com/news with a header of "Latest News" on the page (don't know what is suppose to be here either).

Someone fill me in please - I don't know how to configure things when I don't know what these pages are suppose to be doing!

Ok guys, I figured out what goes on those URL's.

Articles are just pages that either me or my members post.

You have to put in the proper category in the blogs to get these to show up on that news link:

Latest News Category - latest
Featured News Category - featured
Exclusive News Category - exclusive

To get blogs to show in the "Site Blog" area ,I just needed to put enter the "blog" category.

I guess I just didn't dig deep enough to find the answers earlier :)
