  Hi,

  I am trying to create a static home page that will display the blog posts that I have. I followed the steps here https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ but I still cant see my blog posts under Home.

  My blog is http://petitedressboutique.wordpress.com

  Appreciate any help, thanks in advance.

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

  Hi there,

  Are you looking just to list all of your posts under Home? I am wondering because I see you already have a Blog in your menu. If so you can copy and paste [archives] into your Home page editor and have that page as an archive index page. To learn more here is a link to our support page:

  https://en.support.wordpress.com/archives-shortcode/

  Hope that helps.

  Thank you for the reply @Tifanne83. But an archive its not really what Im looking for.

  I would like to link or somehow when I click Home or my logo it will bring to all my blog posts. I hope its not confusing, Im a total newbie.

  Thanks.

  I don’t quite understand that this means… “To set a static homepage, you first need to create two Pages. One will become the homepage, and the other will be where your posts are displayed.”

  fatenhmb – if you want your posts to be displayed on your front page, then there’s no need to follow the steps in this guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ Those instructions are only for folks who want to have their blog on a page that’s not their homepage.

  I would like to link or somehow when I click Home or my logo it will bring to all my blog posts.

  Right now, your posts are being displayed on the front page, and your Home menu item links there, as expected.

  If you’d like to have something else other than what I see now on your site, please explain in more detail what currently doesn’t work as you’d like, and I’ll be glad to help.
