The home page is actually the theme/index.php page, and displays the “loop.” The default setup for the content on the home page is the Loop, which lists the most recent posts.
Unless you created a home.php page yourself in your theme, it won’t show up in the dashboard list of pages.
I am trying to modify the verbage on the home page and cannot find where it exists.
Unless you are using a static home page, it won’t show up in the dashboard list of pages.
The text on the home page is a post, not a page.
