  This may be obvious, but I just started creating my blog and I am confused with how to add a Home page. I have the “Illustratr” theme. I want my Home page to be all of my previous blog posts (like it is now), however when you click on the “About” section or another link, I want there to be a “Home” button in the menu so you can go back to the blog posts easily. I don’t want a static page, just my previous blog posts with a Home menu button. There seems to be no way of doing this from what I’m seeing. If someone understands what I’m saying and could help me that would be great.

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

  I may be able to help. Have you created a custom menu yet?

  What you’re talking about is the DEFAULT. You don’t need to do anything. Not all themes, however, have a HOME button. Some of them make the entire header or name of the blog the HOME link. If you really want a button you could put it in a text widget I guess.

  I want there to be a “Home” button in the menu so you can go back to the blog posts easily.

  When I set mine up, I chose what I wanted in my Navigation Panel by setting up a Custom Menu.

  No matter what I click on my Navigation Panel stays in place.
