    Hi Michael,

    The theme is Snow Blind.This is the code (below). Wanted this theme because it is easy to SEO and customisable. If this one won’t work, can you recommend one that will?

    Cheers,

    Cathy.

    • “>home

      • <?php
      $pages = get_option(‘sil_pages_include’);
      if($pages) {
      if(strtolower($pages) == “all”) {
      wp_list_pages(‘title_li=&depth=1’);
      } else {
      wp_list_pages(‘title_li=&depth=1&include=’.$pages);
      }
      } else {
      wp_list_pages(‘title_li=&depth=1&number=8’);
      }

    Hi Michael,

    I have given the pages a number in the pages, page order section. I looked at the wp_list_pages part but didn’t change it there as I wasn’t sure which bit to change. As I looked around more I found that you could change which pages show up in the theme its self and there is a box there where you can either put “all” for all pages or give the number of the pages you want to show. When I list the pages, the blog page doesn’t come up. When I put “all” in the box, it updates to \ and only the home page which I suspect is the index comes up. Before I did anything I had two copies of the home page.

    Thanks,

    Cathy.

    Hi, I now have another problem. Since I changed the pages to only show the static home page (index) and not the one I made, my blog doesn’t come up in the link bar at the top. It’s page number is “included” in those pages I want to show up. Also, even if I select the home page to come up, I still only have one homepage in the link bar whereas before I had two of them. What is going on?? You can take a look at my site here: cathy-blackburn.net
    Cheers,

    Cathy

    Cheers, I was only following the breif instructions on the forum. All done now. Did have a problem with two home pages which is why I think I originally changed the header in the PHP which probably confused things but I have figured out how to make the home (page) that I assigned not show up. Thanks for your help.

    I do have another question though. Are there now two homepages though one has been selected not to show, ie the index page and the one I created? If so From an SEO point of veiw I beleive that duplicate pages are marked down by google. Please explain as I have only minimal knowlege of how wordpress works. Thanks once again,

    Cathy.
