  Hello. My front page is a blog (not static). I would like to have this front page listed as “Home” on my menu. I tried creating a new page labeled “Home” on the menu, but this simply set up a separate (non-front page). I read the page tutorials but couldn’t figure this out. Thanks.

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

  I think this is your solution:
  Configure the ‘Home’ page as you please, then in your theme configuration select a Static Page and select the ‘Home’ page.
  This will take you to the ‘Home’ page at loading the website.

  Then create a menu if you haven’t done already. Put ‘Home’ in it and add a location to the menu to show it.

  Johan, thanks for your reply.
  My apologies for not being clear in my first post. I do not want a static Home page. I want my Home page to be my current Front page, which is set up (correctly) as a blog. When users navigate through my existing menu, I want there to be a “Home” page listed that will take them back to my current Front page, not a new static page.
  Thank you.

  I gave up and deleted my custom menu. When I started over, my problem disappeared.
