• Hi I am completely new to this so will probably sound so stupid but I am using Wordpress with the Shell 1.4.2 theme.

    I cannot change my homepage. I have been trying to do so via the theme options link as instructed. I click 'update' and the site homepage just reads 404- fancy meeting you here! - really frustrating.

    Would you be able to give me any guidance as to how to create the static homepage without the previous error message recurring!

    Thanks.
  • Hi,

    If you did not change anything to Theme files/codes there should not be any errors at all. I will need more information about your current setup in the order to help you further.

    There's not much guides on how to work with home page to be honest with you.

    Step one: (go to Theme Options)

    Step two: (type in the content into fields)

    Other things to look after are menu items, make sure that there's only one "home", also static page must me empty as well

    and compare with defaults:

    If there's anything else please let us know!
