    hello again

    ok, sorry about this, but i’m testing things out as i go, and i clear cache along the way to make sure the cache isn’t the problem.

    i have it to where i selected the “recent posts” option for my homepage instead of it being a static page. now, when i first load the main page, everything is fine, BUT, when i click to a different section of my website and then back to my home page of the website, everything on my homepage disappears except the footer.

    this is definitely an issue with the recent posts selection because whenever i had the static page selected, i never had that problem. again, i have cleared cache and still persists.

    is this possibly a bug that needs to be reported? i don’t imagine there being a css code for this? this is the first real big issue i’ve come across so far. thanks in advance.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hi peachykeen2012.

    Thank you for contacting us and for using our theme.

    What you’re experiencing is because your HOME item in the main menu points to https://morethanjustanimals.com/home/ which is a page, instead of https://morethanjustanimals.com/ which is your website URL.

    So you just need to fix your Main menu and use the custom link for the HOME.

    Hope this helps.

    hello thanks for the response!

    however, i’m kind of learning on my own here, are there any tutorials on this by chance?

    can i just take the “home” part off of the url on the permalink for my home page? or no?

    i’m not sure if i’m doing this right ??

    ok, lol, i think i figured it out! i thought i needed to have a page dedicated to just the front page.

    but after fiddling around with it, i was able to see the difference you were talking about.

    so much to learn lol, but i’m learning thanks so much for the help. all good now. i just have one more question if you happen to get this?

    is there a way to have recent posts without a thumbnail?

    Sure thing, add this to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS:

    .blog-feed-posts .entry-thumb {
	display: none;
}

    And this tutorial should be useful as well – https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-add-topics-in-wordpress-navigation-menus/

    Kind regards.
