  Somehow I deleted the home page of my blog: http://davidmriedel.wordpress.com/ and now it reads:

  “Not found
  Sorry, but you are looking for something that is not here.”

  I’d like the homepage (http://davidmriedel.wordpress.com/) to eventually look like the home page to this blog: http://davidriedel.wordpress.com/ (I even bought the davidmriedel.com domain through wordpress). But because the home page is screwy, nothing seems to be working.

  Help. I looked for this topic before, but it seems to be half-addressed in many places, but never resolved.

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

  If you deleted the Posts page (the blog page), just Write a new Page called “Home” following the instructions found here http://faq.wordpress.com/2007/02/20/having-a-static-page-at-the-front-of-the-blog/
