    When I initially built my Singl website through WP I had my homepage (primary) set-up as Music Bytes with various blog posts. I also set-up 2 pages, Playlists and Music Reviews. Being that my Playlists page is the most popular and where I want most people directed to anyways, how can I make it become my new homepage? In turn, making the current homepage to be just an additional page.

    Heirarchy now:

    Homepage (primary)
    Music Bytes

    Pages (secondary)
    Fresh 10 Weekly Playlists
    Music Reviews

    Heirarchy I want:

    Homepage (primary)
    Fresh 10 Weekly Playlists

    Pages (secondary)
    Music Bytes
    Music Reviews

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

    Hi there!

    Head to the Customizer and select Homepage Settings. Where it says Your homepage displays, select A static page. Now you’ll be able to select the page you want for the homepage from a drop-down menu. Under Posts page, you may need to select Add a new page entitled something like ‘Music Bytes’ – this is where your blog posts will live as a secondary page on your blog.

    You can read more about this process here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/front-page/

    You may also need to modify your header menu, which you can read about here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/

    In the Customizer, select Menus, then your header menu, and add a link to your new Music Bytes (blog posts) page. Your playlists page will now be the homepage for your site, so you’ll want to update that link accordingly too.

    I hope this helps!
