Remove Blog from homepage

[tigaruk]

Im using the Modern Studio Pro Theme.

All i want to do is remove the blog posts from the homepage. I found this code which works BUT it also removes the post content from the actual posts themselves which isn't helpful.

/** Removing Blog Post From Home Page */
remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );add_filter( 'genesis_pre_get_option_site_layout', '__genesis_return_full_width_content' );

Do you want toi remove the post content or the blog posts rom the home page as both as the same thing?

The first snippet removes the posts and the 2nd forces a full width layout removing the sidebar.

I just want to remove the blog posts from the home page. If i use just the first snippet it removes the blog posts from the homepage but also removes the post content from the actual posts themselves, so a post is actually blank.

You need to use the code with the

is_front_page()

conditional tag or create a

front-page.php

file and add the code to the file so it only executes on the front page.

Thanks, but i've never done conditional stuff before so not sure how to do that.

I tried

if ( is_front_page() ) {
			remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );
		}
}

Which just broke the site :/

This is driving me mad, despite millions of people asking this question on google. No one has the correct answer and every answer they do have is totally different to someone elses and is written in the vaguest of terms. I even tried a plugin to remove the posts which instead filled it with a line of text saying 'Sorry, no content matched your criteria.' Which again seems impossible to remove without removing every post on the site.

Surely there is a simple solution to this to hide, remove or destroy all blog posts from showing on the home page.

Anyone know how to do this please?

Modern Studio Pro is one of those rare themes that doesn't have a front-page.php. As Brad advised in an earlier post, you'll have to create one and add the code there. As alternatives, you could use a static front page, or finally, since the theme doesn't have a front-page.php, for the conditional you could try if ( is_front_page() || is_home() ).

Thanks, my issue is i don't know how to do conditional stuff, or at least what im trying is slightly wrong somewhere and i can't just find the right way to write that line of code.

if ( is_front_page() || is_home() ) {
    remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );
}

Thanks for the reply, but that code isn't removing the posts from the home page 🙁
I've placed it in functions.php like i should and nothing changes.

Really don't know why or what to do.
