When I do that it screws up the archived pages.</p> <p>I tried putting the blog as the 'front page' and 'static' as the blog page but it shows the full blog posts and not the summary (even though I have 'summary' checked).</p> <p>Am I missing something? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/use-blog-page-as-home-page#post-2943 Tue, 17 Aug 2010 12:53:50 +0000 James Morrison 2943@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,</p> <p>Change the from page settings to your blog page (WP admin -&gt; Settings -&gt; Reading)</p> <p>Hope this helps! :)</p> <p>James </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/use-blog-page-as-home-page#post-2842 Sun, 15 Aug 2010 20:27:38 +0000 jaw23 2842@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I am migrating a site and want to just use the blog page aspect of this theme to start (not the slider home page).<br /> How can I do this?</p> <p>Great theme, by the way. </p>
