Hi @saiiup,
First, you have to make sure you actually have a Home page. In your wp-admin panel, click Pages > All pages in the main menu. If you don’t have a Home page in the list that appears, click the Add new button at the top to make a new page, call it Home if you like, and publish it.
At the moment, you’ve set your front page to be a blog post. If you would like to make your Home page the front page, in the wp-admin panel, click Settings > Reading. At the top, where it says Front page displays, choose A static page, and select your new Home page as the front page, and your blog for your posts page.
Also, if you have set your Home page as the front page, you should also change the target for the Home button in your menu. At the moment, this is pointing to the blog post. To make it point to your new Home page, which is also your front page, in your wp-admin panel, click Appearance > Menus. Make sure you’re working on the correct menu (there is a drop down at the top of the page where you can choose between your menus). Click your Home page menu item to edit it, and click the Remove link at the bottom of the window that appears.
On the left side of the screen there is a section with choices like Pages, Posts, Categories and Custom Links. Open up Pages, click the checkbox for your Home page, and click Add to menu. When you’re satisfied with your menu, click the blue Save Menu button in the top right corner of your screen.
Go back to your website, refresh it, and check out if it is more to your liking now. Also, if you would like to learn more about menus, please check out this helpful support article:
