# Template homepage problem

 * I have a templaye which i am using which is giving me major headaches. It seems
   like a mandatory link at the top of the page named HOME. I can change the name
   of this link at > marketing options > Top navigation > home title.
 * I have spent hours trying to delete this link or at least put my own written 
   homepage content into it, but i cant even seem to do that. Someone please put
   me out of my misery!

 * Perhaps you need to create a [static home page](http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page)?

 * For hard coding:
    you might want to edit header.php file located in your themes
   folder

 * Thanks for the link. The good news is i have linked the troublesome link with
   my own written homepage material. The bad news is i cant delete this link so 
   right now i have 2 HOME links at the top of my page. How can i delete this please?

 * There is no other solution. If this is something you feel that you cannot undertake,
   then you may want to consider employing a professional to carry out the work 
   for you.

 * you can simply copy/paste the whole page code in a text file for backup and do
   try/catch in editing.
 * It won’t be too hard.. or u may try posting the code here

 * If it’s longer than 10 lines, not here please. It will only get removed. Use
