Homepage

Your Homepage is the main landing page of your site. It’s built and edited just like any other page — the only difference is how it’s assigned in WordPress. You may also hear this referred to as the Home Page or Front Page.


Set a page as the homepage

To assign a page as your Homepage:

  1. In the WordPress dashboard, go to Settings → Reading
  2. Under Your homepage displays, select A static page
  3. Choose your desired page from the Homepage dropdown
  4. Click Save Changes

Once selected, that page becomes the front-facing entry point to your site.


Edit the homepage

To update your Homepage content:

  1. Go to Pages
  2. Find and open the page currently set as your homepage
  3. Edit content using blocks, just like any other page
  4. Click Update to publish your changes

There’s nothing special about how the page is built — it uses the same editor, blocks, and patterns as the rest of your site.


Replace the homepage

If you need to make a major change — like a redesign or a seasonal variation — you can create a new page and assign it as the Homepage:

  1. Create and build your new page under Pages
  2. Go to Settings → Reading
  3. Update the Homepage selection to your new page
  4. Click Save Changes

This approach lets you prepare and review a new experience before making it live.

Note: Changing the Homepage does not delete or alter the previous page — it simply removes it from the front-facing position.
