Hi

The theme display posts following some specific rules and according with the filter set for any block in each page. For example if you publish a post which belongs to News category that post will automatically be displayed on News category page in first place. This is a WordPress default functionality, each post which belong to a specific category will be displayed on that category’s page.
On pages the theme display posts according with the filter set in each block’s settings: http://screencast.com/t/kNFrQMah5Ra You can read more about block settings in this tutorial: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-block-settings-tutorial/ also you can find some useful informations about page setup here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/
Note that the theme posts displayed on pages will also be displayed on categories pages. This is how WordPress works.
The theme also have a unique article option, but this works for any individual page, bot for entire site. By enabling this option: http://screencast.com/t/TeZwRX5c13W the theme will display only unique article on pages’s first load. However the posts displayed on that page will also be displayed on category page or on other pages with similar filters. To avoid having duplicate posts on many pages you have to set the filters such that the theme to display different posts on each page. Here is an example:
– in page named Recent News let’s say you add a block and set it to display posts from News category.
– in page named Older Stories let’s say you add a block and set it to display posts from Old Articles category.

Following this example on your pages won’t appear duplicate posts, each page will display posts from the selected category.

I hope this helps.
Thanks!
