Hi everyone,
Is there an easy way to display all the content items for a category on a page that is not the Home page? Specifically I have a top menu button that when selected I want to display the content items for one specific category in the sitecontent area.
Ideally I would like to have the items display the Intro and a Read More selection available if needed.

need to make a menu link from menu manager to blog-category...
then set the parameters that fits your needs from the menu-link item..
you can set numberof columns/intro items(leading)/ the number of items per page/pagation/backbuttons
and so on...
edit: most user try to modify(change urls-location..) existing menu links...
once a link is saved no way to change the location that it target's.... most menu links have this behaviour...
you can any other customization to existing menu-links except to change target-location
so... that top-button you mention must be delete and make one new to point to the desired blog-category
