    I use Genesis for all my sites, except for one.

    I've learned that was a mistake. So I'm planning on switching it back over to Metro Pro.

    But here's my question:

    How can I make a static Home Page w/o a blog? My customers don't read blogs so I'm needing a blog-free site.

    Is it as simple as creating a new page, with a new template, and making that my static Home Page?

    Or is it more involved than that?

    Thanks very much!

    Create a new page, call it Home and leave the template selection as default

    Then tell WordPress that you want to show this page on the front page of your site

    Dashboard > Settings > Reading > Front page displays > static page > then select

    Thank you for taking the time to answer Graham!

    It worked.

    Now I'll need to tweak it quit a bit!

    Thanks again.
