  If i just put in my site’s address, johnfsworkshop.org, I get a page that is not the home page. It might be a page my users find called(?) home/archive.
  What is this?
  Thanks

  Hi John,

  It looks like the Front page settings are still set to your Latest Posts. If you want it to be your Home Page, go to Settings > Reading in your Dashboard and select: A static pages where it says: Front page displays. Then for your Front page, choose your Home page.

  If you are also creating posts, select a page to display your posts.

  Let me know if you have any questions with this!

  If I “hover” over setting I get lots of options but none seems to mention
  front page or static page. If I click on settings I get “General Settings” which also does not mention front page or static page.
  Where next?
  Thanks

  Please go to Settings > Reading and you will see those options like I mentioned above.

  Great – it worked. I’m sorry but when you said “reading” I did not realise it meant an entry called “reading”.
  Got there in the end. Thanks
