[Theme Painter ] Renaming Home Page to something else

Unless I’m missing it…just do Pages->Edit and edit that page and change the name to blog.

This is what the theme uses to display Pages in the header.php
<?php wp_list_pages('depth=2&title_li='); ?>

I can edit the pages that I’ve created without a problem. The home page tab was created by person who designed the template. I don’t have access to this under pages, that I can see. Do I need to edit the code under appearance, editor?

Then that theme was modified, and in the theme’s header.php, their might be a hardcoded reference to “Home” or the use of wp_page_menu displays Home.

If necessary, paste your theme’s header.php into a pastebin and report the link back here.

I’m using Painter 1.1 and I don’t see a “Home” button at all in the page menu bar. How would I add a Home button for the main Posts page as awardprod appears to have in his modified theme?

I know this is an older post but I thought I would comment since I just had the same problem with the Painter theme… no “Home” menu.

I created one as follows by editing header.php. I just added the list item in the menu section on or around line 60. I called mine “Home” but you could name it whatever you like. Also since this is a hack, it will not be affected by the page order or parent/child attributes. It will always show up in the menu first before other pages.

<!-- Menu -->
      <div id="menu">
        <ul>
added-->   <li><a href='/index.php'>Home</a></li>
           <?php wp_list_pages('depth=2&title_li='); ?>
        </ul>
      </div>

HTH someone.

hello, this may vary by theme (depending on the location of the navigation menu), but I was just able to do this on the Yashfa theme by visiting the Header template.

The code I changed was:

<li <?php if(is_home()){echo ‘class=”current_page_item”‘;}?>>/” title=”Home”>Home

to

<li <?php if(is_home()){echo ‘class=”current_page_item”‘;}?>>/” title=”Blog”>Blog.
