  I cannot seem to get my homepage at scaavram.wordpress.com to link my posts made after my initial introduction post. Help?

  Also, How can I edit the title on my homepage? I used to be able to do it but cannot seem to find the correct link anymore. I’m sorry for asking, but can’t seem to find it in the help menu

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

  re: changing a .wordpress.com site title
  The Site title (blog name) and/or the optional Tagline can be changed on the top of this page at any time. >Dashbaord > Settings > General … “save changes”.

  That is exactly where search engine spiders look for the site title and removing it from there can cause issues with getting your content indexed. Note that the site title (blog name) and blog address URL do not have to be the same but it’s better for SEO (search engine optimization) if they are the same.

  P.S. You can also do this at My Site → Customizer → Site Identity.

  When you got your blog the front page was at the URL https://charlieflohr.wordpress.com/

  You made your About page into a static front page and need to chnage that back to the way it was.

  Have you actually published any posts (not pages) yet? You may need to do that first.

  Your detailed theme description page is at https://wordpress.com/themes/hemingway-rewritten/ and that’s where set up instructions for it are found. The live demo site is at https://hemingwayrewrittendemo.wordpress.com/

  This is a one or the other situation. You have two choices on any blog
  (1) All posts on the front page. By default that is the URL of the site.
  (2) A static front page http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/ and all posts on a different page.

  By default the front page of your blog displays all published posts (not pages) in reverse chronological order, with the most recently published post on top. That is for the convenience of your returning visitors, who come to read your latest post, and who are not likely to be happy with being compelled to click through the same static page with the same blah, blah, blah on it every time they visit the blog looking for the latest post.

  However, if you do not want all the posts to show on the front page, then you can create a static front page called for example “Welcome” for your site and a “Blog” page for posts. Create your pages first
  Front page:
  Posts page:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/

  After you do that you go to > Dashboard > Settings > Reading and make the designation change and click “save changes”.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/

  A static page (select below)
  Front page:
  Posts page:

  Go to http://charlieflohr.wordpress.com/wp-admin/options-reading.php
  and select
  Front page displays
  _Your latest posts

  Then scroll down and click “save changes”
