Parabola Static Page problem PLEASE HELP

Hi, i hope this is the right section.

Basically with parabola, setting the home page to static means you don’t get the nice presentation page, which i need (worked hard on making it look good)

But … i can’t get my posts to appear on a different page other than the front presentation page. in the customise setting i can set the “posts page” to my custom post page, whilst keeping the front page as a non-static page. (however that just sets the front presentation page to display latest posts) its all rather contradictory.

Then in the main dashboard settings bit, under “reading” the posts page option is greyed out unless i make the front page “static” but again, i just end up with posts on my front page and no presentation.

So, how can i have my presentation page post free… and my posts on a separate custom page/link. PLEASE HELP this is driving me nuts

Thankyou in advance
