Hello hutty
Have you tried updating the home page from the settings tab?
Settings>Reading> then go for Front page displays choose static page, then pick the page you want to display as home page.
What page do you want to see when you go to http://test.unionbc.org/
When I go there I see a WP produced 404 error page.
There is a menu bar on the page and if I click on Home, I go to http://test.unionbc.org/home/

You seem to have shortcodes which are not working but are instead showing up as what you coded, on the page http://test.unionbc.org/home/:
[turbo_widget widget-prefix=jsversewidget&obj-class=JSVerseWidget&widget-jsversewidget–title=]
[turbo_widget widget-prefix=jsversewidget&obj-class=JSVerseWidget&widget-jsversewidget–title=Bible+Verse]
[turbo_widget widget-prefix=jsversewidget&obj-class=JSVerseWidget&widget-jsversewidget–title=Bible+Verse]
I doubt that is causing the other issue but it is something you need to resolve.
I’m guessing that is, perhaps, supposed to show bible verses???

The page that should show up is the http://test.unionbc/home when loading http://test.unionbc.org
I have gone into Settings-Reading and changing from your latest post to static and selecting Home as my page.
I have played around the permalinks, which always messes up the site where I can’t log in again and have to manually edit the functions.php and wp-config.php to get back into the site.
Bob, the short code for the bible verses seem to work as planned. I have them into different spots, as I was trying to manipulate the css for the text.
Right now, I have static and Home as the page.
Thanks
I’m still not sure what I’m supposed to be seeing where..
Also that link http://test.unionbc/home returns server not found – should it be http://test.unionbc.org/home?
If I go to http://test.unionbc.org/home I see what I take to be your home page.
When I go to http://test.unionbc.org I get the 404, page not found error.
What should I see when I go to http://test.unionbc.org? Should I see your home page that is now at http://test.unionbc.org/home?
That is, should http://test.unionbc.org take me to your Home page?
Also – that bible verse in the header block on the Home page at http://test.unionbc.org/home is almost unreadable because it is is a dark font color against a very dark background. I’m not sure what control you have over that but it is almost invisible.

I cleaned things up a bit. Disabling all the widgets and re-activating broke some things.
What I am hoping to see is when you type http://test.unionbc.org you will get the content on the http://test.unionbc.org/home page.
I would have not created http://test.unionbc.org/home page if I knew how to get the contents to show at http://test.unionbc.org.
The URLs are connected to a subdomain where once up and running will replace the domain http://unionbc.org , but that is down the road.
The theme owner tried to correct the issue I am having when he installed the theme. He later told me to contact the host, who said to contact a developer. I have put it off while I build the pages and links.
Thanks in advance.

I read another thread where it says not to name my home page with the name “home”. So I changed it myHome. Still no luck.
Not sure if this is correct, but my index.php file in the home directory has the following content:
<?php
/**
* Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn’t do anything, but loads
* wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
*
* @package WordPress
*/
/**
* Tells WordPress to load the WordPress theme and output it.
*
* @var bool
*/
define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, true);
/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wp-blog-header.php’ );
