Hi there,
Thanks for your input, i am aware of how it works with it using the index.php file – that is not the issue here. I am not using a theme, i do not use themes i build them from scratch bespoke for each client.
I may not have explained my issue well enough, basically the behaviour of wordpress has changed and i’d like to know how / why and how to revert it. I could easily use custom fields to put a text editor back on the blog page however that would be a hack when there has ALWAYS been a content editor on the page selected as the “page for posts”.
So now all of my older sites which have content added to the page for posts now have un-editable content as theres no editor but its still stored as post meta in the database so outputs fine.
Cheers
