How to create a home page and a blog post page easily with the Headway Theme

ADVERTISEMENTS

By default WordPress will display your content in a blog format on the home page of your site. In this tutorial we will walk through making your site like a static website plus having the power to use it like a blog too. What is so great about Headway is the fact you can then design the layout and content of each of these Pages as you see fit.

Step 1: Create two new pages

You will need to create two new Pages within the WordPress Dashboard under the Pages editor feature. You can call them what you want. However, for this exercise we will call one Home and the other Blog. When you create these two Pages, you will also want to make sure you check the box which will have them appear in the navigation. We will go over dealing with arranging your navigation tabs in another tutorial.

Step 2: Setting the Front Page display

Once you have created the above two Pages, you will need to set the “Front Page Display” inside your WordPress Dashboard. Go to Settings >>> Reading

Step 3: Check your new Pages in the Visual Editor

With the exclusive Headway Visual Editor, you can now rearrange your navigation and move Home and Blog where you want them. Plus, at the top right hand corner of the Visual Editor you will see the new Pages there too. You can switch between them to design each Page’s layout.

Step 4: Hiding the Page title

As you can see in the above screenshot, the Home Page has “Home” in it. You can easily remove this with another of the built in features provided by Headway. Go to the Page editor in your Dashboard for the Home Page. Scroll down towards the bottom and find the box as indicated above. Simply check the box beside “Hide Page Title” and the title will be removed from this particular Page.
