  Theme name: chaotic soul
  URL: http://raygrogan.wordpress.com/picking-breadfruit/
  My question: How do I make a “front page” with a list of say 5 independent web pages, and once you click to an independent web page have it be all about that subject, and NOT have much to do with the front page except an easy little button to get back to it.
  Like:
  Ray’s whacko websites (this is the front page I am trying to make – but when I try too much of it carries into the independent pages, dominating them)
  Breadfruit (first independent web page)
  picking breadfruit (a sub page, this one fine to carry the banner, etc. of the independent web page – URL above is this)
  cooking breadfruit (“)
  Taro (second independent web page)
  planting taro
  harvesting taro
  cooking taro
  (content something like this: https://get.google.com/albumarchive/114685571384513740781/album/AF1QipOccpPSZtA7q6JJxFh4eB3WvTCIdxoA0za87lXe )
  3rd, 4th etc. independent web pages, lists of links, etc.

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

  Hi @raygrogan, with any theme you could set a static front page and use categories for your subjects.

  Here’s how to set up the front page:
