# Some basic help? Static vs Blog pages…

 * I’m using the free WordPress platform, at WordPress, to learn the tool and do
   a proof of concept of my combination static web site and blog.
    I’ve created 
   a site ([http://youreatruefriend.wordpress.com/](http://youreatruefriend.wordpress.com/))
   and chosen a template (Tarski).
 * My intent is to have a static home page with traditional web pages and a blog
   page ‘hanging’ off it.
 * In Settings>>Reading>> I’ve set Static to the About page and blog to the blog
   page.
    The problem is that the menu structure has Home, About, and Blog where
   Home is pointed to another pager rather than stand alone content. Home and About
   then have the same content. Is there a way to directly edit the Home page content
   and disassociated it from a separate, static page?
 * Also, how do you get rid of the Blogroll menu structure from a page?
 * Perhaps this is all dependent on the underlying template?
    Thanks for any suggestions
   and help, -Eric

 * The Tarski Options page lets you select which pages appear in the nav bar.
 * Go to Admin->Appearance->Widgets and drag the Links widget out of the sidebars.
