    Ahaaa. The problem seems to be with limitations of the _s Theme, and indeed with many other starter Themes.

    I started checking whether my problem occurred with all Themes. I found a theme called OceanWP that had some extra options for Page Settings including one for a full width page and this pushed all Post headings off the screen.

    A bit of googling confirmed that not all Themes have such an option. More googling (with How to Create a Full Width Page in WordPress) led me to a site that showed me how to add a full-width.php to my _s Theme and I’ve now got rid of Recent Comments, Archives, Categories, Meta.

    So, it seems my problem may be solved and if so many thanks but I’m sure I’ll need more help as I progress.

    Checked in Reading Settings that a front ppage is selected.

    Flushed the cache but no change.

    In my (local) wordpress directory there are 36 files with template in the filename but none of them contain new WP_Query() or get_posts() or query_posts().

    Meanwhile in my (local) wordpress directory there are 22 php files containing new WP_Query, 23 php files containing get_posts and 2 php files containing query_posts.

    Any ideas which files I should look closer at inside?

    As ever thanks for this. I’ll have to acquaint myself better with custom queries. I certainly haven’t knowingly put a custom query anywhere on my _s based Theme.

    I’ve made quite a bit of progress with the _s Theme but despite specifying my home page as static the standard blog headings (Recent Comments, Archives, Categories, Meta) keep appearing on every page. Any help removing them would be much appreciated.

    Thanks very much bcworkz – just the sort of guidance I was looking for and I’ll get back to work on it later today.
