    I want to make my homepage static, and have my posts appear on my Blogs page.

    I was able to have my posts appear under the Blog tab (created after I created the page) but I can’t access the Home page for editing because it is not listed under Pages in Dashboard.

    Help appreciated; thanks.

    You will first need to create a page called Home, then in the settings > reading, set it as the home page.

    Thanks, but the theme I have automatically creates a tab for each page I create, so now i have two Home tabs in my Navigation.

    Do you know how to modify the code so that just the Home tab is not created? I think this will fix it.

    I suspect that you will have to look in the header.php file and look for something that looks like:

    <ul>
<li><a href="<?php bloginfo('siteurl'); ?>">Home</a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages('depth=1&title_li=' ); ?>
 </ul>

    change it to this:

    <ul>
<?php wp_list_pages('depth=1&title_li=' ); ?>
 </ul>

    Thanks crondeau, that seems to have did the job! Now I need to figure out how to order the nav tabs the way I want.

    You should look at the My Page Order plugin. It makes is very easy to order your pages.
