  Hi, are there themes with ‘static’ home pages that I then can make the blog posts a separate page that have new posts but home page will remain static? Thanks.

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

  You can do that on any theme here.

  I’m moving this thread to the questions forum as it’s not theme specific.

  Okay, so, I did this but on the “Posts” no ‘posts’ content is showing. What did I do wrong?

  It’s just saying the title info of the page but no posts are appearing.

  Thanks.

  @cathryn, then we need a link to that blog so that we can take a look. Right now we are just guessing.

  Sorry… it’s http://takeforwardwbai.wordpress.com. The category ‘blog’ – which I don’t even really need – is the Posts page. It has copy there about this being the home widget area which I’m not sure how to get rid of. When I put a post up that said ‘coming’, nothing appeared. And the actual widgets, which appear to the right on the other pages, are to the bottom and to the right on that page.

  Thanks for your help!
