- Log In to the Dashboard.
- Create a new page as the “Homepage”.
- (Optional) Create a new page as the “Posts page”.
- Click “Settings” on the left.
- Click “Reading” under “Settings”.
- Select “A static page(select below)” to the right of “Your homepage displays”.
- Select the page created in step 2 as “Homepage” from the drop-down menu.
- (Optional) Select the page created in step 3 as “Posts page” from the drop-down menu.
- Scroll down and click “Save Changes”.
By default, all your posts will be listed on the “Homepage”. But now we are using a static page as the “Homepage”, so we need to set up a “Posts page” to list the posts.
The set up of the “Posts page” is optional because some websites do not use posts, so they do not need a “Posts page”.
