In reply to: Move blog off the homepage@chip bennett – well I figured out how to take out the comments (by removing code in comments.php) and while that worked for the static pages, it also took out the comments where I actually wanted them to be (on the waterblogged page) which makes sense. I would have preferred to keep one page with a blog (why I used WP in the first place) but it just doesn’t want to work as advertised.
I did the whole Settings -> Reading -> Frontpage / Posts page thing, but it didn’t work right. I still have post stuff on my frontpage and nothing showed (with no way to add comments or posts) on the page I listed as my posts page. Now, I’ve removed all the code, but would like to get at least ONE blog page back. Any ideas?

In reply to: Move blog off the homepageI did this too… home is a static page (or so I thought) and I made two other pages, one of which I assigned to display the blog posts, however everything came out backwards for some reason.
My “home” page and my “contact us” page both look like blog pages, and the blog page (named “waterblogged”) has no blog info on it…
Look at skylinepump.com – this is my first WP site. I’ve worked with php and HTML/CSS before quite a bit, but my client wanted a blog that they could edit and WP seemed like a good fit. Now, I’m wondering if I can make this work for a ‘company’ website or not. I’ve had to strip out tons of code to get rid of stuff I don’t want on ANY page… and I don’t see any other way to remove column content that seems to be hard-coded. By doing this I lost my top menu (but I think I had to because I couldn’t get rid of the original ‘home’ page, no matter what I did.) I’d love to get that top menu back….
It also seems like typical php comments “/* */” doesn’t work either – any suggestions?
But first I need to resolve the static page vs. blog page first.
Perhaps a good theme (one that’s built for what my client needs?) suggestion?
Thanks,
Jeff
