    Hello all

    I have not worked with wordpress for a long time now so I'm a bit rusty. The question is...

    How do I make it so that there are not all the posts on the home page. I want there to be a static home page when someone first visits my website. Then in the navigation bar have 4 other pages that they can view. Basically, I will not be posting "posts" rather then creating 5 static pages to the entire website. Does this make sense?

    Thank you

    Mitch

    You can create pages instead of posts and set your homepage to the page your created from admin->reading

    For static website you need to choose homepage to your preferred page rather than your latest post. You can use Corporate or personal themes for easy.
