   I would appreciate some help.
   I created a landing page and it is attached to the landing page template and it works. Then I created a HOME page that is based on the Home template and in the menu I created the HOME button that appears as a button in the navigation. BUT, When I click it I get the url as: http://howyoustopforeclosure.com/home/ and Page Not Found. How can I make it found.
   2nd problem. I created a BLOG page and attached it to Default Template.
   BUT what show up when clicking the BLOG button is the HOME page. HOW can I get the blog page to look like a blog page? I don't know if the Default Template has been changed to the Home Template. I can't find any Default Template in the files, but is shows up under templates.
   Thanks for any help, Arne

   According to Administration > Settings > Reading

   Posts page - Select in the drop-down box the name of the Page that will now contain your Posts. If you do not select a Page here, your Posts will only be accessible via other navigation features such as category, calendar, or archive links. Even if the selected Page is Password protected, visitors will NOT be prompted for a password when viewing the Posts Page. Also, any Template assigned the Page will be ignored and the theme's index.php (or home.php if it exists) will control the display of the posts.

   In Settings/Reading I have the static page set to the Landing page, which works.
   I have the next line set to the blog page. Online, this brings me to the home page (that I created), but I want the regular blog to appear here. In the Blog page setup, I have the Template set to the Default Template, but that is not what shows up.
   Also the link to the home page: http://howyoustopforeclosure.com/home/ brings me an error 404 page not found.

   I'd say don't use a page called home.
