You should go to the backend -> Settings -> Reading and sure that the page that you want to act as the homepage is selected.
Respectyoda,
Thanks, but under Settings I do not see any place to adjust the Reading for the home page. It is if the Home Page has just disappeared. The Solostream Critique theme is displaying a list of posts, not in the display manner I had designated in the settings.
Have you checked the particular theme’s documentation in how to create and assign a homepage? Some themes require you to do so from the theme settings. By default WordPress shows a list of posts as your homepage, this is typically the home.php or index.php file of your theme.
The Reading settings allow you to choose which page is the homepage and which is the blog or post archive page. This works for most themes, others typically manage it as a theme option or as a page template (i.e. you would use reading settings to chose the page and then apply the ‘homepage’ template to the page http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Page_Templates)
