    I noticed my main page and domain/blog are using the same page.

    How can I accurately configure the blog section to be domain/blog and the main page to be just domain.com?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello, not sure if I got you but, what I have on my test site is like this:

    I have set /blog/%postname%/ in the permalink section (WordPress)
    and set in the Reading settings (WordpresS) as blog page, a page named Blog, so blog page and blog posts are in domain.com/blog/title-of-the-post

    Thank you, Simone.

    I have the same settings as you mentioned above. The problem my main page browser’s title bar shows the same as the title bar of my domain.com/blog page. It appears that they are sharing the same page.

    I have to use domain.com/blog/category for the Blog navigation menu. If I only use domain.com/blog, none of the blog posts will show up.

    I just noticed the demo site has no blog so I can’t compare my sites to it.

    I stil cannot login to your website(s).

    So WJ is working fine, and AFL not, did you had a look in the YOAST SEO settings?

    I came up with a possible workaround/solution:

    Set your wordpress with Latest post, in settings-readings, then install the plugin Posts in Page ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/posts-in-page/ ) and add this shortcode inside your blog page

    Thank you, Simone. I appreciate your help.

    Is it just my sites or do all GD sites have the same issue? Is that a temporary fix until a better solution becomes available?

    I prefer not to install another plugin especially if it’s not updated like the one you just mentioned above.

    It happens also on my side and I’ve opened a task on the project management, so it should be considered as a temporary fix

    Got it. Thank you, Simone. I noticed that if you set it to blog first then put it on latest post, the issue goes away but it’s not a fix for sure. I will explore further.
