Hello Everyone and Happy New Year!

Is there anyone who can recommend to me the best Static Front Page Wordpress Plugin that will allow me to chose any post as my static front page and will allow the newer posts to continue below it as usual in sequential order. Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Charles Prosper

  • Why not just make a page and name it whatever you want, then make that your static home page. WordPress has that option already built in to it.

    Sounds like you want a "sticky post" plugin instead of a static front page.

  • Like Andrew said, you just need to make a post a "sticky" and it will stay at the top and your latest posts will always go under it.
  • Make a page with your needs and select it as static homepage.
  • I thought the static page was something that you could choose as an option in the newer versions.
  • Readers, please read and understand the OP's question before replying man.

    cprosper, you want to "chose any post as my static front page". First of all, you CAN'T choose a "post" as a static front page.

    Second, you want one static post on top, and the remaining posts below it.

    For this you JUST need to set one post as a sticky post. Nothing else.

    • I was wondering the same thing, this will work, but by making a sticky post and showing the complete post on your home page, you will now have a duplicate post in the category it is listed in. How would you get around the duplicate content issue.

      I would like to do the same thing, show one complete sticky post on the home page, with the most recent post (excerpts) below it. But I do not want the complete sticky post duplicated on my site in the category it is posted in.

      Any thoughts?

      Thanks.
