Good work all! http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page
I cleaned up the spelling and formatting to match Codex guidelines and style, changing it from an essay blog post style to a technical, step-by-step breakdown. I'm sure I made some mistakes, so please check it thoroughly, please. I also left a big note there inviting you all to add some "fun" stuff. We need two things on the page: 1. Tips for "customizing" the "front page" such as how to have static content "at the top" and the regular posts below (a combination of static and not), and some other tips that people tend to want on their front page. We also have to emphasize that the sidebar doesn't change, but they might not want the "bloggy" sidebar on the front page, which means further customization. So we need to tell them how to remove that sidebar. 2. Theme Troubleshooting - the tip on the nav bar is great. We need more. You mentioned the top nav bar, but what about the sidebar Pages links? How about changing those? What if a Theme is set up to automatically have a static front page without a sidebar. They will want to know how to get that sidebar back. What else is Theme specific they need to know if they make a static page in a Theme that might not know what to do with it? Have I forgotten anything that we need to address that people think about when they do this? Great work all!!!
