    yes even when switch to another theme it still only recognize the post or comment page as the home page

    If you still need help with this, please post a link to your site with ALL plugins deactivated and twentythirteen theme active.

    Yes, its so weird

    I’d suggest you ask the developers of the theme you are using about this – as it appears to be a theme issue.

    I thought that to at first but, its seem that know matter what theme i switch to i cant get the static home page

    As I posted above, on twentythirteen, your site IS showing a static home page.

    I have done all this hon, i have 7 wordpress websites. Your static home page shouldn’t have a comment box at the bottom. That should be your blog page. The static page should look like the template when you set the Home page to Static and the Blog page to Post.

    Your static home page shouldn’t have a comment box at the bottom.

    It does unless you turn the comments off – go to the pages screen, hover over QuickEdit and uncheck allow comments.

    On your site, in twentythirteen, look at the body tag in the output HTML – what shows up? It’s a page like this:

    <body class="home page page-id-40 page-parent page-template page-template-page-templatesfull-width-php logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support single-author">

    If it’s set to blog, it shows this:

    <body class="home blog logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support single-author">

    okay..This is what mines says when I view source page in html…

    <body class="home page page-template page-template-page-sidebar-php logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support">

    <body class=”blog logged-in admin-bar no-customize-support”>

    Yep, so the first one is a static page and the second one is a blog.
