I am having the same problem and love this theme, any solutions yet?
Hi VenessaMatthee,
I did get some support from the theme creator–basically its not possible. I had to modify the theme to display the page content on the front page. Here is what it looks like: theBizGeeks.com
Sorry, not that site. I meant: theBudgetBoss.com
So what was the modification you made?
Sorry for a delayed reply.
The theme uses a widgetized home page so all the content should be placed in Widgets.
You can import sample data which will make it easy for you to setup the content.
To do this first install this plugin
Widget Importer/Exporter
and activate it.
Now, download this file and in WP admin go to Tools > Import Widgets
and upload the file.
This will import all the sample content.
Now, you can go to Appearance > Widgets and change the content.
Same problem Here.
Quick fix.
1) add an empty page and put it like front page
(it should be empty because the content on it never will be shown)
2) add a static page where your home content is, in my case its “inicio”
3) edit your header.php on line tree and paste the following code
if($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == "/"){
header('Location: /inicio/');
}
/ means the main directory, if your wordpress is under a sub folder with name “subfolderX” the code must be like this:
if($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] == "/subfolderX"){
header('Location: /inicio/');
}
change subfolderX for whatever your folder name is.
change ‘inicio’ for whatever your home content is.
This example require the clean URL configuration enabled, but can be changed for your needs.
Hello @ramjam
A better way to have your front page content displayed is to create a child theme.
You can re-create front-page.php such that it would display your page content instead of the default Widgetized home page.
