Setting Calendar Page to Homepage

Hi Mike,

Do you have a page for your homepage, how you add content?

Yes, the homepage and main calendar are located at https://imnotatwork.com.

I add content on the backend of wordpress, however, users can submit events via frontend submissions.

Do you have a home page on the page list, Dashboard > Pages? If there is no page for the homepage, then that option will not appear in the dropdown.

Hi Benjamin – No it is not located there, however, I was hoping I could use some custom CSS to force that link to always go to the homepage. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,

So when you go to Administration > Settings > Reading > Front page displays > A static page, there is no calendar page?

The radio button for “Your latest posts” is selected. This is required with my theme (Optimizer Pro) in order to build a custom homepage.

If there is no simple fix, can I simply place a forward (through my host) so that imnotatwork.com/all-specials-and-events redirects to to imnotatwork.com (homepage)?

Thanks,
Mike

Yes, please read the following guide: https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/beginners-guide-to-creating-redirects-in-wordpress/

Thanks Benjamin. We can consider this item closed (until a better solution comes out to make the Homepage my default calendar page).
