# Different front page?

 * Is there a way to set a different front page? For example I want page 50 to be
   the front page always to appear when you go to lets say [http://www.thispagehere.com/wordpress](http://www.thispagehere.com/wordpress)…
 * A little more complicated, is there a way for it to go to the ‘last’ always, 
   instead of the first. So lets say theres 5 pages, then it would go to [http://www.thispagehere.com/wordpress/?page=5](http://www.thispagehere.com/wordpress/?page=5)
 * If eventually there are 6 pages, then it would automatically move over to the
   6th page.
 * I’ve seen variabiles that support the number of pages, $total I believe does 
   this for page totals, so I would want to use that variable probably.
 * Thanks!

 * Just posting becuase it is getting behind.
 * Basicly I just want to know where the ‘front page’ coding is.

 * For the first question: You forgot to tell us what version of WordPress you’re
   using. Assuming you’re in the 2.1.x branch, have you logged into your blog and
   visited Options -> Reading?

 * Ah I am sorry, yes I am using 2.1.3, and I have taken a look, but I do not think
   that is what I want exactly.
 * Yes I do want the front page to be different, but no, its not a ‘static’ page
   sort to speak. I want it to always display the last page instead of the first
   page. Reveresed sort to speak.

 * You want to display the last Page (as in [Pages](http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages))
   or the last list of Posts?
 * I’m not sure I understand which you’re asking.

 * As in pages, so lets say if theres 40 pages, I want it to display the 40th page
   on the front page,
 * But if there lets say happens that 5 posts add, and theres a total of 41 pages,
   I want it to display the 41th page.

 * Valleriani,
    keeping in mind [your other topic](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/114892?replies=2)…
   I feel more and more what you are asking is nonsense.
 * WP does display by default the latest posts – newest on the top.
 * Now you asked to reverse that order, which means if you have 45 posts and five
   displayed on a page (not Page!) your latest post will be on page/9.
 * And lastly, now you want to make that “page/9” to be the landing page, homepage
   of the blog.
 * Maybe I am missing something but you seem to aim for something that you already
   had out of the box.
