  What is the address of your site? Is it definitely hosted here at WordPress.com?

  yes, taliarolandkalb.wordpress.com
  the option was available when i was working on my site two days ago, but I cant get to it anymore, the options are only “site id/menus/widgets/additional css”

  Every theme has different customization options. I can see that you’ve recently used Alves and Mayland themes on the site.

  i have tried out about half a dozen themes and they all have instructions on the help page for how to make a static homepage, but when I follow them there is no option for it

  No problem. Have you created the “page” that you want to be displayed as the first thing folks see when they come to your site?

  Click on My Sites – Site – Pages

  Publish the page when you’re ready. Then, you’ll be able to assign it as the front page through your settings.
