Using Free Template but homepage not replicating demo homepage

    Hi there. Any and all help will be appreciated.

    I am using the starter templates plugin. I choose a free template and follow all the basic setup steps shown in the videos that are part of the plugin walkthrough.

    The plugin builds my site based on a template demo and all other pages except the homepage look like a replica of the template demo.

    The problem is my homepage shows is displaying the default ‘hello world’ post and a ‘leave comments’ post instead of all the blocks shown in the demo homepage. And when I click to edit this page, the editor seems to think it has all the demo blocks already (ie the editor is showing the homepage looks like the demo template), but when you click to preview that page in a new tab it again shows the above mentioned incorrect home page.

    Does anyone know why this is happening or how to fix it?

    Nevermind. Stupid thing, I guess after using WP Reset, under Settings –> Reading, the homepage and latest posts page were both set to the same page. This is what was causing the issue. To fix, set your homepage to ‘Home’ and your latest posts to “-Select-“, unless you have another page meant for that.
