Link post to blog from a static page

I'm a WP rookie, and I just designed a static homepage that shows the 3 most recent posts in my database. I would like to redirect the user to another page in order to show him the entire blog post everytime a post title gets clicked. I already created my blog page using the reading settings menu but I can't figure out how to link each post to my blog page and show it's content on it. Any indications?

Blog post is redirecting to home page

It wasn't doing this before, and I'm not sure what has caused this to change. I have tried: clearing cache changing permalink structure, saving, and setting back again unpublishing and republishing So far nothing has worked. The blog post shows up on the /blog page, however when I click on the 'read more' link, it redirects to the home page. If I try navigating directly, it will also navigate to the home page.

Customizing a blog page layout

I can't find any themes that truly match what I want, so I wanted to customize my blog page by adding to its existing layout given from the theme. However it seems that widgets and plugins that allow complete design and customization of pages work for everything (pages and posts) except for the blog page, which seems to be a completely unique type of page that cannot be customized without picking a new template. Does anyone know of a way …

Front page with registered query params in URL shows blog archive instead of front page

WordPress version: 5.4.1 I've built a plugin that includes a shortcode. The shortcode shows a product listing and has a couple of filters. The filters trigger a page refresh through JS with query params for the filter values. If I use the shortcode on any other page than the homepage, it works fine. If I add the shortcode to the homepage and apply a filter, somehow the blog homepage is shown instead of the regular front page. (Breadcrumbs show Home …
