    Hello! I wanted to say that I absolutely love this theme, and I’m planning to keep it for a very long time.
    Now, I’m having trouble with setting the Home page. I only want the home page to display my posts (a simple blog format). I know that there’s the “Front page displays: Your latest posts”, but I actually want the “Home” option on the navigation menu. So, I created a page called Home, and then went to Reading Settings and chose “A static page, Posts page: Home”.

    This is my webiste: https://allisonmarzal.com

    And this is what it looks like when you click on Home:

    http:/allisonmarzal.com/home

    But I want to click on Home on the menu, and then get this result (with all of my posts, of course, just like a blog)

    allisonmarzal.com

    This is probably something very dumb, but I got really lost in here, so I would truly appreciate your help!! Thank you so much.

    Ps. I found this website (sela theme) and this is exactly what I want!

    Wonderful! ??

    You can add a Home link to your menu without needing to actually create a page for it. ??

    Here’s what you need to do.

    Under Settings > Reading, put “Front page displays” back to “Your latest posts.”

    Delete the empty page you made called “Home.”

    Go under Appearance > Menus, and create a custom menu. Add your desired pages to the menu, including one for Home. If you don’t see Home in your list of pages, click the View All tab. If you still don’t see it listed, go to the Custom Links section an manually add it in like this:

    Here’s a guide on how to create a custom menu:
