    Hi Amy,

    Right now, there’s a problem with your site’s “Static Front Page” settings. You can view those settings in your site’s Customizer, by clicking on the “Static Front Page” section there.

    Your “About” page is listed as both the Front page and Posts page for your site, which will cause some problems. If you want your About page to appear on the front page of your site, you should leave it selected under “Front page” there and choose a different page under “Posts page.” (The Posts page is where your blog will appear — you can create a new page for that, if you need. There’s also a full guide to Set a Static “Home” Page (Front Page) that walks through how to set that up.)

    Alternately, under “Front page displays” you can select the option “Your latest posts.” That way your site’s front page will show your blog, and the About page will be a separate page on your site.

    Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)

    Hi Rachel. Thanks for your help. Sorry it’s taken me so long to respond. I followed your instructions and everything is working as it should. My next issue is adding text. I’m using the Museum theme right now and while I have had no trouble adding images, I cannot seem to add text to accompany those images. Maybe it’s not the right theme. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks again.
