Setting custom homepage for Wordpress blog

I need to have custom page as homepage and I know how to do that (http://www.lancelhoff.com开发者_C百科/how-to-set-a-wordpress-static-front-page/), but when I set custom page as homepage, I cannot have latest posts page. So how can I link to latest post pages, because it's address isn't anymore root path?

Create a new Page, for example "Blog", then goto:

http://yourdomain.tld/wp-admin/options-reading.php

and change "Front Page" to for example Home (your homepage) and Posts page to your Blog Page (in this example "Blog")

Now you can link in your header.php your Blog Page:

<a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/blog" title="Our Posts">Blog</a>

and if you save this, you can click on this and will see your Posts. Or you can create a custom Page Template like this Code: WordPress Custom Theme and set this as your Page Template of your Blog. But the First way is easier...
