How do I create a static front page in WordPress?
Asked on Sep 15, 2025
Answer
To create a static front page in WordPress, you need to set a specific page to be displayed as your homepage instead of the default blog posts. This can be done easily from the WordPress dashboard.
- Log in to your WordPress dashboard.
- Navigate to Settings → Reading.
- Under "Your homepage displays," select "A static page."
- Choose a page from the "Homepage" dropdown menu.
- Click "Save Changes" to apply your settings.
Additional Comment:
- If you haven't created a page yet, go to Pages → Add New to create one first.
- Ensure your chosen page has the content you want visitors to see first.
- You can also select a different page for your blog posts under "Posts page."
