Accidentally assigned new homepage and now I’m stuck

    Hi everyone,
    I accidentally assigned my “About” page as the normal home page. And now I can’t change it back
    For some reason, the entire “Home” is gone. I can’t find it anywhere and it’s also not possible to recover it from the bin or anything else, because it’s not deleted.

    I need to go over to another template because of this, but because I have Business subscription now, instead of Premium, I have limits. I want to use “The Coffee Shop” theme, this front page looks really good. But now I can’t have that, because my page is assigned to the “About” page and again: the Home page is not in the list of pages.

    How can I add the template home page to my list? It’s better to just start from scratch at this point. It’s taking too much time already

    Any help would be appreciated

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    I think it’s at this point best for me to reset my site. There was just enough to get it starting, but in general I can start from scratch and have just as much time spent.

    Hi,

    Here’s your home page: https://squirrelcookies.com/, and here’s your About page: https://squirrelcookies.com/about/. Is the home page back to “normal” now? Have you fixed or resolved the issue described above?

    Hi @squirrelcookiesbakery,

    I checked your site and noticed that you’re on a special promotional Personal plan, which includes the ability to install plugins, rather than the Business plan. The theme you’re currently using is Bakery-and-Pastry, while the Coffee Shop theme is available only on the Business plan.

    That said, I can see you have a well-designed homepage and an About page. However, I noticed that the About page is not included in your navigation menu. If you’d like to add it, you can follow the steps here:
    Edit Menus – WordPress.com Support

    If the current homepage isn’t the one you’d like to use, you can create a new page titled Home, select any starter pattern you prefer, then customize it and set it as your homepage.

    Also, since you’re on a paid plan, you can reach out to us directly via email or chat for support anytime.
