  I set my ABOUT THIS SITE as my landing page somehow, or so it seems. I can see the word HOME on my blog’s menu. When I click on it, though, the page seems to refresh to the ABOUT THIS SITE page.

  My admin page shows my post scheduled for today went live, but I can’t see it at the blog.

  So sorry if I confused you and thanks so much in advance for all your help!

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

  Hi Joanna,

  No worries, I sorted out what’s going on here! You’ll just need to make a couple adjustments to get everything working:

  You have indeed set your “About This Site” page as the front page of your site. (That’s done in your site’s reading settings, under Settings > Reading in the site’s dashboard.)

  If you don’t want your “About This Site” page to be the front page, you can change that next to “Front page displays” in your reading settings. You can choose “Your latest posts” to switch back to showing your blog posts on the front page of the site.

  If you’d like to keep that front page the way it is, you’ll just need to publish a different page for your blog to appear on. Then, in your reading settings, next to “Posts page” you can choose that page and your blog posts will show up there.

  We have more details about that process in our Front Page guide.

  Please let me know if you have any other questions about that!

  I’m clueless how I did that, especially since I don’t remember accessing the settings page.

  Thanks so much, Rachel! You’re my hero!
