    Hi folks,

    Have been messing around a bit with wordpress using it as a static website, have used the option on version 2.7 to use a static page as the homepage and then a seperate page for the blog however on my navigation I have an option for "home" and then also the page called "home" I created to use as the static page for the homepage of the site. How do I get rid of the original "home" tab or change things so there is only one and that it acts as the home page for the site.

    Thanks

    It depends on the template you are using but generally...

    Log in:
    Go to: appearance > editor > select header/header.php (depending on your template) and look for the second 'home page' on it.
    The code will be something like

    [HTML]<li class="page_item"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">Homepage</a></li>[/HTML]


    Just change the 'homepage' to 'news' or whatever you want it for and then update file.

    Thanks for that, came across the solution afterwards here :

    But it says to comment out the line rather than change it to anything which seems to work fine.
