  Hi there,

  Currently, it looks like your blog posts are showing up on the front page of the site here:

  http://2014nbcguatemala.wordpress.com/

  Is that the site you’re referring to? If you’re looking to setup a static front page and have your blog posts elsewhere, you could do that through the instructions described here:

  Set the Homepage

  Please let me know if the site still isn’t working how you would like it to!

  Jeremy,

  Thanks for your reply. You are looking at the correct site:

  http://2014nbcguatemala.wordpress.com/

  I do not want a static front page. I want the blog posts to be posted on the front page as it is currently doing.

  However, I would like to have a page/tab called “Home” or “Home Page” listed near the top of the page in the upper-left location (like I currently have) but I would like it if when the “Home Page” button is clicked on it would take a person to the front page where all the blog entries are posted. Currently, if I click on another page like the one called “2013 Team Photo” then I have trouble getting back to the main front page. How can I do this?

  Also, is there a way to change the text that reads “Latest Event Updates” to something like “Latest Blog Entries?”

  Thanks,

  Kyle Raybourn

  Hey Kyle,

  The easiest way to add a home button would be to create a custom menu following the instructions here:

  Menus

  Once you have the menu setup, you can add the “Home” tab as a custom link following the instructions here:

  Menus

  Can you give that a try?

  Also, is there a way to change the text that reads “Latest Event Updates” to something like “Latest Blog Entries?”

  There isn’t a default theme option for this. However, it can be accomplished through some CSS. Can you try using the following?

  section.main-container h1.pagetitle {
  	color: #fff;
  }
  
  section.main-container h1.pagetitle:before {
  	content: "This is the new heading";
  	color: black;
  }

  Just input that under Appearance -> Customize -> CSS in place of the default text. Basically, this sets the current text to white rendering it invisible. Then, the :before content piece adds in the heading you want and rendering that text black. Just change “This is the new heading” to whatever you would like to display.
