I currently have a wordpress site I am using the blog section to include my work portfolio. However id really to create a blog series that is separate to this (does not appear on same page search feed and not required to only filter by using tags)
Is there anyway of creating two blogs areas, or alternatively is there anyway to create two pages for the blog feed to appear, with the filters on tags already applied so only the correct one appears on that page?
Thanks!
We are talking about creating a custom post type here.
I’d talk about multiple subdomains? Even a different INSTALL?
Or maybe, MULTISITE?
Or of course, you could have
‘Blog 1’ = Category1
and
‘Blog 2’ = Category2.
It’s not that difficult. you can come up with your own design. There are a zillion ways to do this shit.
Install ACF ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/))
In ACF, setup a new Post Type called “portfolio” and create your portfolio-related posts in there.
Your theme will need to setup Custom Post Type.
I used ACF and custom post types to maintain three distinct areas of my site: the design portfolio, photography portfolio and an actual blog. And the photography portfolio was then sorted into three separate areas of focus (portraits, photo booth and boudoir). So just doing two separate blogs shouldn’t be too difficult.
Personally, I would tend to go the route of custom post types because it would be easier to keep them separated on the admin side. If you just use taxonomies to divide them on the front end then in the admin panel they are all filed under Posts, and I would find that far too cluttered. But that’s just me.
My suggestion is move your “portfolio” to a custom post type & use “Post” post type for blog.
Using proper theme files, you can display both in different look. Check the template hierarchy.

Yes, it’s totally possible to set up two blog areas or create separate pages with the right filters applied. Drop me a DM with the details, and I can help you set it up!
You can install one wordpress inside your subdirectory and hence you can use two different blogs
You can either do it with a custom post type, or just use a category and have two blog pages
Two blog pages, query posts by category.
