    Hi all.

    For some reason the post serving as my homepage is missing in the control panel, I cannot find it anywhere, but it is still showing on the homepage itself?

    Anyone know about this problem?

    Many thanks,
    Glynn

    Posts are not pages, look in pages.

    Thanks for the insight, but I do actually realise that posts aren't pages, It isn't a page. Anyone else got a useful answer please.

    Thanks

    A post cannot be the front page, site link and name of theme?

    What are you talking about? By default, WordPress shows your most recent Posts on the front page of your site. It even states this word-for-word in the Codex? I am going to create it as a static page instead, as the posts seem to have a tendency to go missing.

    You need to do some more reading-up before you start giving "snappy" advice to other people.

    By default, WordPress shows your most recent Posts on the front page of your site.

    The keyword there is "Posts" (plural) - not "Post" (singular). The request for the site's url & theme was a valid one. If you want us to help you, then you need to help us by providing the information requested instead of posting "snappy" responses.

    Who are you? And who is "us" exactly? Can't SwansonPhotos speak for himself? Why are you stating the "Posts" (plural) - not "Post" (singular) thing? What difference does that make? A post is displayed one at a time which can be used as a homepage, who cares if more can be displayed or not? Why are you using my own descriptions ie. "snappy" back at me, don't you have some of your own? I am only responding to an already negative response.

    I don't think I will bother with this anymore if all I'm going to get back is condescending, unhelpful responses from you ("us") whatever...

    Don't bother writing anything back, I don't even have the time!
