Wordpress Static Home Page, w/ Blog Posts Page

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Do you want to create a static home page for your Wordpress blog?   This is so much easier than many sites (even wordpress) make it to be.   It allows you to use Wordpress for a simple CMS solution and put up websites in 1/10th the time you’d normally need to spend.

  • Install at least Wordpress 2.3.1 to your root directory.
  • Write a “page”, called Welcome to YourSite, or whatever you’d like the link to your home page to say.
  • Create a second page and leave it blank, making the title “Blog” or whatever you’d like the link to your blog to say.
  • In the admin area go to Options > Reading.
  • Choose Front page displays > A static page.
  • Set front page to “Welcome to YourSite”.
  • Set posts page to “Blog”.

All done, no coding no template editing needed.   Here’s an example site which uses this method and manages all content with Wordpress:  http://OsJobber.com
