      Hi there from a Senior Citizen who is trying to build a website for a BlogI’m
      using WordPress hosted by Hostinger and trying to follow instructions from
      experienced WordPress guy on YouTube but he’s a bit fast for me ! I have managed
      to upload Blocksy Theme and some settings and dummy blog posts and jpgs that
      he provided. The published website is starting to shape up but when I’m in
      Dashboard / pages I only see 1 page Privacy Policy but not my ( presumably)
      home page that appears on published website.
    - Also expecting to see Website title that I updated and saved. Obviously I’m
      not in the correct view to do some editing and would welcome direction from
      an experienced user.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fgetting-started-dashboard-content%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi
 * It seems the HOME page is set for the blog, try this if it is a static HOME page
   you are after: [https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/create-a-static-front-page/](https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/create-a-static-front-page/)

 * Hi Farook thanks so much for your response – so it’s the home page with the blogs–
   how do I edit it as it is not in Dashboard pages ? I would like to add a few 
   things to it.
 * Thanks Michael

 * Presumably you created a new page then told WP to use it as the home page, right?
   I’m assuming your theme can then display blog posts.

 * Hi RVH Thanks for your reply my tutor may have created new page as I uploaded
   his settings but why am I not seeing it in Dashboard / pages ( only Privacy Policy)?

 * Hi Mike
 * This is the sitemap [https://mikemcgov.com/wp-sitemap.xml](https://mikemcgov.com/wp-sitemap.xml)
   and I can view most published content from here.
 * Do you recognise the page? If yes, which one is it? I’m guessing it is [https://mikemcgov.com/convertkit-review-get-started-for-free/](https://mikemcgov.com/convertkit-review-get-started-for-free/)
   if it is, this is a POST and not a PAGE.
 * Else, are you able to send a screenshots? Showing ‘Pages’ AND ‘Posts’

 * Thanks Farook
 * I think I’ll start again but this time use the Hostinger Page Builder so if I
   get stuck they have a fast response from their help desk
