    Hello, you can list blog posts/page by using the WordPress widgets for posts/pages in the GD Home sidebar (or elsewhere you want)

    What you can do is to create a blank page, named “Blog” (so it will have the slug /blog) then go in the wordpress settings, and then in Reading. Set the front page to display the “blog” page as “Posts page” and then you can use yourdomain/blog to display blog posts.

    That’s changing in each page/post because of your settings
    see for example this page, http://www.encuentramaz.com/contact-us/ (this is not a blog page)
    You could use Yoast Seo plugin so you can set a global so for each page/post in your website

    Hello, as suggested here http://kb.yoast.com/article/148-canonical-urls-in-wordpress-seo you can change the canonical url for /blog to the home of your website

    Hello,
    A little background:
    I created my site using minimize theme and installed GD, at first I had no blog page, after installing and activating the GD plugin, I then asked what I had to do to have a “blog” page on the site, I was told to go to settings>reading and set blog as my frontpage, however there’s an issue doing this. google thinks my /blog is my home page as you can see in the canonical rel tag. I’m also running All in one SEO pack by Michael Tolbert.
    I need my frontpage to be my home page and /blog to be a directory, for SEO purposes. Can this be done? Where did I go wrong? I think my site is suffering in the SERP’s because of this. Can you help?

    I’m just a little frustrated because my homepage should not be the “blog” I need to fix it, my traffic I feel depends on it.

    Ok I understand your frustration, but I suggested a solution. Opening more threads with the same issue won’t fix the things..
