    Hi @blundersbiz, did you just delete a section of the page?

    You can add new block sections as you’d like, or if you want to start fresh with the page (and maybe copy that block over) just go here:
    https://wordpress.com/page

    For the page template, choose your front page templates, and then pick Morden. You can re-customize the whole page, or just customize that section, then copy and paste to the real front page.

    If you decide to redo the entire page and want to make that your new front page, you can specify that under Customize > Front Page. Let us know if you need more help!

    Hi,
    In addition, you can also retrieve an older version of your page. WordPress will autosave your work every minute or so. To restore an earlier version of your page:
    1. Go to My Site → Pages (or Posts)
    2. Edit the page or post you want to view revisions for.
    3. On the right side, under Document Settings, look for Revisions
    4. Select the desired revision, then click on the Load button at the bottom
    5. Clicking the Load button loads the selected revision into the editor. In order to keep the changes, you will need to save the draft or Update the page.

    Hope this is helpful too.

    @tanisomolu ah yes, good point! Revisions are indeed always a good choice, too; not sure why I didn’t think of that this morning.
