  I would like to remove posts from displaying on the front page of the Gourmetto theme and display on a blog page. Is that possible?

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

  Hi there,

  When I visit http://juniperwhiteauthor.com/, I see just your pages on the homepage. The “Blog” page does appear to be empty at the moment.

  To display your blog posts on the “Blog” page, open the “Blog” page to edit, and insert the Blog Posts block block onto it. This block is full of settings to customize the layout of the posts!

  If you run into any more trouble with this, please let us know.

  Sorry, but I think I may have made a mess of things. How do I set the Front Page template to be used as the Homepage?

  I forgot to say that I have the Blog page working now. But I can’t select the static homepage because I apparently don’t have a homepage, which the Pages list shows as in Draft. What I have is the Front Page template. How do I use that for the Homepage?

  Hey there @jennj300 – I currently see a front page, but if it’s not working for you, can you try publishing a “home” page and then setting it as the static front page? Your template should take over from there.

  Thank you. I’ll try that, but will I need to copy all the blocks from the template to the new home page or just leave it blank?

  I don’t seem to be able to edit any of my posts here. But I wanted to say that I did what you advised and created a new home page and copied and pasted the blocks from the template, and then selected the page as the static homepage and it appears to be working. Thank you again.

  Fabulous @jennj300! Thank you for confirming. And yeah it’s okay to leave the page blank since the template is taking over.

  I want to note too, you can also add a Content Block anywhere in the front page template if you want to manage some of the front page material through the page editor (vs leaving it blank). That could be handy if you need to make mobile updates to content. Hoping this helps!
