Edit Home Page – Unwanted Search Results on Home Page – How to Remove

  • Good evening! Ok, so I updated to wordpress 4.7. My “Home Page” displays on the main page screen and is setup as a static page linked in Settings-Reading-(“Front page” drop down). I apologize in advance for any vocabulary or explanation that doesn’t sound right. I do construction for a living and I’m trying to get this going on the side. I can install some mean drywall, but no clue how to code.

    Ok, so it SEEMS like the home page is functioning properly. When I enter “Pages” in the back-end, I’m able to edit ALMOST everything. Here’s the catch – It seems like there are two pages on my home-page. When I edit the home page through the “Pages” tab, if I deactivate EVERYTHING on that page, my home page DOES reflect those changes, but still displays another page UNDER all of it. It looks like it’s some sort of search results. I believe this is hard-coded in somewhere and I just don’t know where to find it. I tested the location by putting a massive text box at the VERY end of my “Home Page”. The text shows up (is currently still on the page so you can see) when I visit the website, but UNDER that text was the entire other page (search results page??) with sidebar and everything. Any idea? Do you need me to provide more information? As far as I know, NOT related to cache issues. Cleared cache on server end and use incognito window through Chrome.

    Seems like after it reads the layout of the “Home Page”, it the adds the next page to it. The TOP part of the home page is what I want to keep and be able to manipulate / edit through the WordPress back-end under “Pages”.

    But I want to get rid of the bottom part, between the words

    TEST TEST TEST TEST TEST….

    and above the footer. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Addition Information –

    Theme – Shopkeeper

    When I go into “Shopkeeper”, “Customize”, I’m able to customize the pages on the front end. The menu “Shop” did adjust some of the items. Example – If I change the selection “Number of products per column”, then the Home Page does reflect those changes. Still no idea how to disable this “Shop” page completely. I went into “Pages” in the back-end and changed the “Shop” page to “Draft” and that did nothing at all. Still currently set to “Draft” and still visible on my Home Page.
