blog page says Coming Soon! Instead of showing posts

Check that you have set as the blog page in Settings -> Reading

Under settings->reading, what page is set as your blog page?

I’m not clear how to answer that. I just went to settings>reading and it is selected that “your homepage displays” is “your latest posts”. We haven’t changed anything, all the blog posts used to show up and and all of a sudden they aren’t there and it just says “coming soon!” could that be a function of some of the version upgrades? How do I fix it?

Thanks.

Your site shows normal to me. I don ‘t see a coming soon page.

The coming soon is showing up on this page, which is the “blog” tab on the homepage: https://brockportresearchinstitute.com/news/
It used to show all of our blog posts here. We didn’t change anything, it just stopped showing the posts with this message of “coming soon!” recently.

What do you have under settings->reading for the post page. It should be the page you designate as “blog”.

If I change the part where it says “Your home page displays” to a static page (it was on “latest posts”) it lets me choose the blog page to display, but there’s not a good choice for the home page, our actual homepage is not a choice there and then it make the blog page the home page.

What happens if you edit the “blog” page?

To clarify, if I change the radio button to the static page and select the blog page to post, it fixes the problem, but it also then changes the homepage to the blog page. I don’t want that to happen. In the dropdown menu for homepage, none of the options are our homepage.

If I edit the blog page, what would I put there? We have dozens of posts that used to pull over into that page. Do I just delete the text that says “coming soon!”?

I still see all the blogs if I go into the posts, they are just not pulling into that page like they used to. We didn’t make any changes, so I don’t know how to fix this.

I wanted to see if the content of that page was actually “coming soon”. I guess so.

So, really, we come back to “settings->reading”. Set the home page to whatever the home page should be and the posts page to the “blog” page.

Thank you, I will ask there. When I change that setting that you circled, and put it to the blog page, it fixes the problem, but creates another. If I leave the home page unselected, it defaults to the blog page, which is not what we want. And the drop down menu does not contain the homepage, just our other pages. I don’t know how to fix that!

How do you get the “front page” option? I don’t have that in my drop down menu, and I think that’s part of the problem. If I put any other page in there the blog shows up, but the home page gets messed up.
