I would like my sole Post to be my permanent Homepage

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello. I’ve created a single Post which I would like to set as my permanent Homepage.

    This won’t be a blog to which I add future posts; it will just consist of the single post (which I have already created). I don’t have any need for pages.

    I’ve tried to set my sole Post as the Homepage following the instructions but I don’t get the result I’m looking for.

    Instead, my Homepage currently contains a description of my blog, but to get to my sole Post, I have to click a link to navigate to a different URL containing the Post.

    Is there a way to delete my existing Homepage (along with the existing description of my blog), so that typing ‘vertiports.wordpress.com’ will take webusers *directly* and *instantly* to the sole Post I’ve created?

    Or perhaps a way to delete my Homepage altogether so webusers only see my Post?

    Thank you for your help! I’m new to this!

    Daniel

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

    The easiest way to do so is by setting your home page as a static page and copy the content of your only post onto your homepage.

    Many thanks!

    I understand how to set my home page as a static page, but please could you tell me how to copy the content of my post onto my homepage?


    I can only see how to clone one post into another post, or one page into another page.

    But I can’t figure out how to copy the content of a post into a page. Is there a way? Thank you!

    You can copy all blocks of that post, https://wordpress.com/support/copy-a-post-or-page/#copy-all-blocks, and past them into your homepage

    I did it! It would have taken me DAYS to figure this out without your help, and much trial & error & frustration. You’ve saved my sanity. I really appreciate it :-)
