    In Cocoa theme, how do I make the opening page the home page? I had two home pages and deleted one, but when I open the site, it is not the home page. It is the home page that I deleted.

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

    Hi Jackie,

    In order to set your home page (including changing it from a different page), all you need to do is follow the instructions which we’ve included right here:

    Set the Homepage

    I accidentally trashed/deleted my posts page. I still have all the posts, but need to add a new page for them to my existing menu. How do I do that, using all my existing posts, without starting from scratch?

    Ah, OK! All you’ll need to do is create a blank page under Pages >> Add new (call it “Posts” or “Blog,” whatever you’d like).

    Then use the instructions I sent you before to set it as your blog entries page.

    After you’ve done that you can go to Appearance >> Menu to add that page to your site to make sure that it’s easy for your visitors to navigate to your blog posts.

    Let me know if you get hung up on any of those steps and I’ll see what I can do to help!

    I have created the Posts page, but how do I put my posts, which are under Posts in the dashboard, into this new posts page, which is empty?

    Our systems handle that for you. In the help article I sent to you before we cover how to make your posts display:

    Set the Homepage

    Specifically steps 4 – 8 cover that part:

    4. Write another new page.
    5. Title this page “Posts” (Or “blog” if you want sitename.com/blog)
    6. You don’t need to type content, because it won’t be displayed. Publish the page.
    7. Click Settings→Reading on the left menu in your Dashboard.
    8. You will see the following options. Set yours to look like this:

    Front Page Settings

    After making these changes, posts will no longer show on the front page of your blog. The static page “Home” will show there. Visitors will need to click on the link to “Posts” page to see your posts.

    Finally figured it out. Thanks.
