Go to customizing
Static front page
Change option from “your latest post” to “a static page”
Hi @roro1990, I’m @ricotheque from LyraThemes. What @eugemac said will work. We have more details in our theme documentation.
Hope this helps!
That doesn’t do what I need, unfortunately. If I choose “a static page” then I have to choose a page other than the home page I’m using. I essentially just want to have the exact same layout as I currently do on my homepage, but with both the recent posts and sidebars removed. So I want the main header image, the Featured Posts Section, and then to skip straight to the footer.
Create a new blank page and then set that as the front page under Settings > Reading.
In order to remove the recent posts from your home page, please create a new blank page (for example “Home”). Now go to Settings > Reading and set this page as the front page. See this for more information: https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Reading_Screen#Reading_Settings.
Once this static page is set up, you will no longer see the recent posts on your home page. However, you’ll be seeing the title of the page “Home” which you can hide by using this custom CSS in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS:
.home .entry-page h1.entry-title { display: none; }
