Hexa theme first page to articles

    Hey Guys,

    I want the first page of the blog to be a static page and the next page the reader gets directed to to be all the articles.
    So far I’ve tried to use the widgets for this, but all it does is show the last five articles as single articles per page instead of all of them in a row.
    The way its with the standard ‘last articles’ it was set to in the beginning would be perfectly fine.
    Another possibility would be to have the Article that I have as a static page at the moment to be the first article everytime someone visits the site. The following articles could just scroll down either first to last, or last to first.
    Is that a possibility?

    Thanks for the effort
    Chris

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

    This is an one or the other situation. You have two choices on any blog
    (1) All posts on the front page.
    (2) A static front page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ and all posts on a different page.

    re: static front page
    By default the front page of your blog displays all published posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. That is for the convenience of your returning visitors who will not be happy to have to click through an About page every time they visit your blog as they come to read your most recently published content. Creating that situation can make some visitors annoyed – so annoyed that they stop following your blog.

    However, if you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page called for example “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for all published posts (not pages) to display on in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top.

    To do that create two pages first http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/

    After you do that you go to > Settings > Reading and make the designation change for each of the two page and click “save changes”.
    A static page (select below)
    Front page:
    Posts page:
