Home page css

    I have noticed on several different themes, that they have like a “default” home page. This is set to display a list of post by default. If I create a page called home, then changes the settings to make it my front page, I loose some css that the rest of my pages have. If i select a different page as frontpage, its fine. Is it something to do with the name of the page being “home”. Or even better, how do I edit the “default” home pages that some themes have.

    this time around it happens to be the Twenty Eleven. But it happens with other themes too. When I create a page called “home” and set it has the “static front-page” it looses the formatting of the rest of my pages.

    “Home” is a reserved name in the WordPress template hierarchy, but in this case it shouldn’t be causing a problem.

    Just to verify: you’re creating a static page, with the title “Home”?

    If so, what happens if you create a static page, with the title “Foobar”? If you assign it as the site front page, do you observe the same behavior?

    No, thats actually how i was able to work around it. If i name it something else, and assign it the “static front-page” it will work fine.

    Can you show a live example of the changed CSS in effect?

    Can you provide your HTML and CSS for one relevant webpage through PasteBin and post here the PasteBin link(s)?

    Can you give me some ideas of what selectors are impacted, e.g. using Chrome Developer Tools, or Firefox Firebug?

    I suspect that the culprit selector is a CSS class on the HTML BODY tag.
