  I cannot figure out what is going on with this theme ‘Cubic’. I am using it on another website and it works great, but on my business page my blog isn’t showing a single post and I have blog posts that date back to 2013. The only two options that show up are ‘Blog’ (which is completely empty) and ‘Gallery’ (which I don’t want available.)

  I followed the instructions that talk about using the Posts Page as a Blog (https://wordpress.com/support/posts/#set-your-posts-page). I go to My Site -> Appearance -> Customize but HomePage Settings does not exist anywhere after selecting Customize.

  I’m really frustrated. I have 12 days to get this online before my next meeting with my business mentor and I am having a tremendous amount of trouble.

  WP.com: Yes
  Correct account: Yes

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

  Hello,

  There is another way to do this! If you go to your Pages section in the sidebar and go to edit your Blog page, add a Blog Posts block in the main section and it will add all your blog posts to that page.
  This guide has more detail:

  Hope this works!

  @hillphotos2009,

  The only two options that show up are ‘Blog’ (which is completely empty) and ‘Gallery’ (which I don’t want available.)

  Where do you see these options?

  I go to My Site -> Appearance -> Customize but HomePage Settings does not exist anywhere after selecting Customize.

  It’s not clear why you don’t find Homepage Settings at Customize, because it’s present on a test site of mine with Cubic applied. Perhaps the privacy setting on the site is a factor. Are you sure that the Cubic theme has been activated on the site? The fact that your site is set on private leaves me unable to check to see which theme is activated on it.

  Regardless of the theme applied, Homepage Settings are also available at Settings → Reading, as described in the Set the Homepage from Settings section of the Set the Homepage (Front Page) support page.

  That should have said, “the Set the Homepage from Settings section”…
