I think there is a typo in the above solutions. Here is what worked for me:
Go to Appearance → Editor and then to front- page.php file then find this line if ( get_theme_mod ( ‘ colormag_hide_blog_front ‘, 0) == 0 )? > And edit it to make it like this: if ( get_theme_mod ( ‘ colormag_hide_blog_front ‘, 0 ) == 1 )? >
