In this short post, I will teach you how to have a static page displayed on your home page instead of the regular: latest 10 posts (or at least 10 is the default number).

By default, wordpress displays your latest posts (latest first). However, this can be changed to show a static page for your home page. To change this setting, go to your settings menu and pick reading from there.

Please note that you must have a static page in order to display it. By default, WordPress creates a static page and puts it on your blog, but some delete it because of the hello world  content (so did I). If you don ‘t have any static page on your blog, you won ‘t even be able to see that setting.

Here we go: on the reading settings page, you ‘ll notice you can choose between latest posts  (the number of posts can be changed as well) and a static page. To make your home page static, pick static and choose one of your pages.

That ‘s it :)

Note: make sure you have a navigation panel or your sidebar includes a link to latest posts or archive or something. Otherwise, your visitors won ‘t be able to check your posts and will see only your static content.

Hope it helps,
