I want a blog, not a website

  • Hello – I accidentally selected “website and blog” when installing my template but in reality, I just want a blog. Not any kind of services tab, etc. How can I go back to the blog template?

  • what template / theme are you using?

    how did you install it?

    generally, those settings should be able to be changed even after the installation…

    Hi,

    The ‘website and blog’ vs ‘blog’ options can depend on the specific theme installed. Typically, the ‘blog’ option sets the home page to display the latest blogs, while the ‘website and blog’ displays a static page as the homepage (with a blog page in the menu).

    One way to change the ‘website and blog’ into a ‘blog’ is to set the blog page as home and delete any unwanted pages (e.g. services).

    Change Homepage to Blog:
    In dashboard, navigate to Settings>Reading and change the ‘Front page displays’ to ‘Your latest posts’

    Delete Unwanted Pages:
    In dashboard, navigate to Pages>All Pages>[unwanted page title], hover over unwanted page title and select ‘Trash’
    Repeat as necessary
