Hi everyone,

I hope someone can help me. I have installed the latest Wordpress upgrade
to a new domain/site I'm working on.

I have 2 issues:

1) I would like to create a static front page.
I go to settings-->reading settings, but there is no front page display option.

2) Which is becoming real annoying...
The dashboard is not present when I go to any of the options.
I have to continually hit the back button to navigate.

I have installed this twice today. Just becoming more familiar with files, FTP and such...
I have been pretty much dead in the water today, so to speak.

I have no idea why the front page option is missing.

Has anyone else encountered the same problem with the dashboard I have?

I'm using the flexibility theme if that helps.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Kevin

The option is not displayed unless you have already Pages created in Write > Write Page.

  Thanks,
  
  I should have clarified...
  
  I have already written a page. I need to make that my static home page.
  
  Any issue with the dashboard?
