  I CAN’T FIND THE HOME PAGE TO EDIT IT AND IT COMES UP AS NOT FOUND. WHEN I GO INTO EDIT PAGES, THE HOME PAGE IS NOT THERE

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

  You evidently have the front page set to display posts, yet haven’t any published posts. This setting can be changed at Settings > Reading. The default home tab leads to the posts stream, rather than a page title “home.”

  Thank you – so when I post something, it will display on the home page – is this correct – can I not edit the home page so that it displays an introduction rather than a blog

  Yes.

  That is accomplished by changing the setting at Settings > Reading from
  “Front page displays your latest posts,” to “Front page displays a static page (select below)” and then selecting (or creating new) pages to be your front page and your posts page. See the relevant support page:
