  I want my home page to be the latest post of my blog and change once or twice a week when I post again. So not static page.

  I have a home page at the moment but did read that blogs should be posts not pages. So what should I do to make my blog the home page?

  I did write a new post but it is not showing up. There is some setting I need to alter but I am not understanding what it is.

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

  Hello!

  To change your site from a static front page to displaying blog posts, follow these steps;

  – In the menu under ‘Personalize’ click the ‘Customize’ button to the right of ‘Themes’.
  – Then click the ‘Static Front Page’ button.
  – Under ‘Front Page Displays’ select ‘Your Latest Posts’. Then ‘Save and Publish’ at top of page.

  Hope that helps!
