This works great. Now here's where I'm stuck...I'd like to use a page to display my blog posts, which would be included in my one page flow and be called by get_page().

Update with code

    <?php

    $args = array(
        'sort_order' => 'ASC',
        'sort_column' => 'menu_order', //post_title
        'hierarchical' => 1,
        'child_of' => 0,
        'parent' => -1,
        'offset' => 0,
        'post_type' => 'page',
        'post_status' => 'publish'
    );
    $pages = get_pages($args);

    //start loop
    foreach ($pages as $page_data) {
        $content = apply_filters('the_content', $page_data->post_content);
        $title = $page_data->post_title;
        $slug = $page_data->post_name;
    ?>

    <a data-magellan-destination="<?php echo "$slug" ?>" name='<?php echo "$slug" ?>'></a>
    <div id="<?php echo "$slug" ?>" class="page-wrap full">
        <h2><?php echo "$title" ?></h2>
            <?php echo "$content" ?>
    </div>
    <?php } ?>

This works great. Now here's where I'm stuck...I'd like to use a page to display my blog posts, which would be included in my one page flow and be called in my WP_Query same as the other pages.

Updated to use WP_Query rather get get_pages

    <?php

        $args = array (
            'post_type' => 'page',
            'order' => 'ASC',
            'orderby' => 'menu_order',
            'posts_per_page' => 5,
        );
 
        $query = new WP_Query( $args ); 

        if ( $query->have_posts() ) {
            while ( $query->have_posts() ) {
                $query->the_post(); ?>
                 
                <a data-magellan-destination="<?php echo $post->post_name; ?>" name='<?php echo $post->post_name; ?>'></a>
                <div id="<?php echo $post->post_name; ?>" class="page-wrap full">
                    <h2><?php the_title() ?></h2>
                        <?php the_content() ?>
                </div> 

            <?php }
        } else {
    }

        wp_reset_postdata();
    ?>

I'm creating a theme for my portfolio site. After a some time of trial and error research and almosts I'm stuck.

It's going to be very minimal site in content, therefore I decided to create a one page website. I'm using get_pages($args); to display each page in my front-page.php file.

This works great. Now here's where I'm stuck...I'd like to use a page to display my blog posts, which would be included in my one page flow and be called by get_page().

So far I've tried the most documented method I can find; which is to change the page that's used to display posts in Settings>Reading.

To confirm

I have a static home page (front-page.php) which I've made a page template declared it in a page called home. Enabling me to set it in the reading settings, and I've created a page called blog for the same reason(this has template set to defualt).

My posts are not being loaded into the blog page set here.

I've read that a custom query could be interfering but I've checked this and it isn't the case in my situation.

Update with code

front-page.php

    <?php

    $args = array(
        'sort_order' => 'ASC',
        'sort_column' => 'menu_order', //post_title
        'hierarchical' => 1,
        'child_of' => 0,
        'parent' => -1,
        'offset' => 0,
        'post_type' => 'page',
        'post_status' => 'publish'
    );
    $pages = get_pages($args);

    //start loop
    foreach ($pages as $page_data) {
        $content = apply_filters('the_content', $page_data->post_content);
        $title = $page_data->post_title;
        $slug = $page_data->post_name;
    ?>

    <a data-magellan-destination="<?php echo "$slug" ?>" name='<?php echo "$slug" ?>'></a>
    <div id="<?php echo "$slug" ?>" class="page-wrap full">
        <h2><?php echo "$title" ?></h2>
            <?php echo "$content" ?>
    </div>
    <?php } ?>

Has anyone come across this type of situation before? Or am I missing something with my loop that would prevent the blog post from loading. I'm learning php and WordPress and hit my limit of experience. I think the call to the content of the blog page itself is preventing the post information to come through? I'm not sure. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
