    somehow, the home page has gone missing. it is not in the list of pages, but it is on the site. Where would I find it to edit it in the future?

    hopefully you haven’t left yet – I found this

    <?php if ( function_exists( ‘pixopoint_menu’ ) ) {pixopoint_menu();} ?>

    header.php has the function_exists code at the bottom of the page. Here’s the code in pastebin:

    https://wordpress.pastebin.com/ZJFXvjui

    Otherwise, there’s no code that I can find anywhere that has pixopoint_menu in it.

    to summarize the problem:

    right now there are two links to home on the navigation. If I remove the page called home, then I can no longer edit the home page. If I retain it, then there are two links in the menu to the home page.

    It’s using a pixopoint menu plugin. Is there any way to get one home page that’s editable? The odd thing is that the editable version of the home page is not available in the list of posts but seems to be a home page for the blog, as well as the site.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Back again…

    I’d found the pixopoint_menu() function in header.php but the next step is to see where this function is defined. The first logical placed to look was functions.php – but no joy. So this function must be defined elsewhere – either in another theme-related file or in a plugin. Did the theme come bundled with any plugins?

    I”m sorry for the delay, I didn’t check back after the first couple of hours after posting.

    Here are the plugins:

    Akismet

    All in One SEO Pack

    Contact Form 7

    PixoPoint Menu Plugin

    Seo Meta Tags

    Does that help in any way? I tried to make the home page private thinking that it removes it from the nav, but then the page shows up in the home page slot as

    HOME : PRIVATE

    thanks for all your help.

    I did it! I figured out a work-around!

    If I change the home page from published to draft, then it doesn’t appear in the navigation. When I need to edit the home page, simply change the status from draft to published, then make the changes (during which time there will be two “home” links in the navigation) save the changes, then change the home page back to draft.

    It’s not perfect but it solves the problem.

    I thought I had the answer, but the page won’t show up in all browsers if I do as I suggested above.

    Any suggestions?
