Get blog page URL - WordPress

In default, WordPress display its latest posts in home page. As we know, WordPress have option to display its posts on a separate static page from reading settings.

In some situations, I need to use this static blog page URL in my template files. Below you can find a small function, that will return the blog page URL.

function get_blog_posts_page_url() {
	// If front page is set to display a static page, get the URL of the posts page.
	if ( 'page' === get_option( 'show_on_front' ) ) {
		return get_permalink( get_option( 'page_for_posts' ) );
	}
	// The front page is the posts page. Get its URL.
	return get_home_url();
}

We have to use get_blog_posts_page_url() in our template files to get blog page URL.
