  Hello,

  I am new to word press, and frantically trying to get to grips with it. I have recently just published my first post. Yet at the bottom of the home page it still says. “Ready to publish your first post. Get started here.” and “NOTHING FOUND” in very faint capitals. For the life of me I can not work out how to get rid of it. Also I don’t understand why it has appeared, as I have posted my first post!

  Please please help, going a little crazy over here.

  Many thanks,
  Fenella

  Hi @livinglikedodo,

  When I visit your site I see several blog posts. Were you able to figure out how to get rid of that message?

  I completely understand that it can be frustrating to figure everything out at first. I’m still learning. This start up tutorial helped me go through some basic steps and find my way around. It might be helpful. Let me know if you have any other questions I might be able to help with!

  https://livinglikedodo.wordpress.com/ has posts going back to 2012. I guess you are really talking about your new site http://livinglikedodo.com/ . As that site isn’t hosted here at WordPress.com and you’re using a different theme to ones available here the way forward is to ask for assistance setting up your front page at https://wordpress.org/support/
