    I have a wordpress blog with mandigo themes.
    The dropdown menu for subpages works fine, but i want a dropdown also under the homepage menu (the posts pages).

    I know the homepage is not a “actual” page, so there is no option to select it when making a subpage.

    I wanted to do this workaround:

    Use a page template that shows the posts just like a normal wordpress homepage. Then i should be able to assign subpages to this page.

    The problem is that i can not get it to work.

    I made a page, assigned it as a template, but how do i show the posts just like a normal wordpress homepage post-page?

    What i am asking:

    How can i show my posts in a page template?

    Resolved it:

    Changed the “Read” settings of wordpress to: Static page -> “template page”

    That worked, but now i had 2 times the button Home (as i also named the new template page “Home”).

    I removed this, the Home button code from the header:
    <li class=”page_item”>/”><?php _e(‘Home’, ‘mandigo’); ?>

    and now only my new HOME template is showing up as the homepage!
