    Hiya!

    I just downloaded www.remarpro.com yesterday but Im not sure what version i have.

    I know I have the 2012 theme.

    i have pictures of my problem but cant figure out how to upload a pic. ??

    In a nutshell:
    When I go to my dashboard, and go to “Pages”, there is no page that says “HOME”.

    But on my site, there IS a page that says HOME.

    I can post to the home page, and I have, but I cannot edit the settings of the home page, such as making it comment-free, etc.

    Anybody know why?

    Thanks Lovlies!

    Thanks for the info but this does not answer my question.

    I would like my “Home” page (which I did not create but was automatically there) to be my static page. No comments, no sidebar, just information about my site that shows up upon people accessing my site.

    When I go to settings and choose “static page”, I am not given the choice of “Home”, I am only able to choose one of the pages I created.

    There seems to be no way to change the settings for the “home” page, which displays only posts that I’ve made. (which will be only one post nonetheless).

    I would like to get rid of the sidebar, and cannot find the settings area to do this, as HOME does not show up as a PAGE, but rather a POST.

    Yes. That’s how it works. There never is a page called “Home”. The link is just back to your blog posts (for “Home”) and you can set that easily via a custom menu or use the default.

    There could be a page called Home if you created it but that’s kinda counter intuitive.

    I really like that I didn’t have to make a home page – the last time i used wordpress was about two years ago and there seems to have been some really great changes. And I like that the Home page shows my most recent post too. I just wish I could get rid of that side bar. Oh well. Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it!

    Well, How about that, I figured it out!

    I will post my resolution here in case anyone else is ever looking for it.

    I added a new PAGE, which I simply called HELLO.

    I put the information that I wanted on it. I chose the “NO SIDEBAR” option.

    I went to SETTINGS, READING.

    I checked STATIC PAGE, FRONT PAGE and chose HELLO from the drop down menu.

    This then makes my HOME page show up as my HELLO page.

    **Note: I previously tried this but instead of choosing FRONT PAGE, I inadvertantly chose POSTS PAGE. This duplicated my Home page.

    Also, one of the above responders may have answered my question, but I just may have not understood it (hazards of not being well versed in wordpress!)

    Thanks for everyone’s help!
