I wanna edit wordpress home page.
I have tired to edit some other pages. Ok to edit.
But in index(home), I don't know how to edit.
I wanna add "Welcome to >>>>>>>>>>>".
Like that kind of paragraph in home page.
Just in home page.
How can i?

    You have two options...

    1) Edit your index.php file in the theme folder wp-content/themes/themename/

    2) Create a blank page, name it whatever you want. The go to Settings >> Readings, and select static page from the radio buttons on top, and then select the above page which you created from the drop down. Then whatever you put in that will appear in the home page.

    Hope this helps.

    index.php is usually the file to edit as schwarzes says.

    If you want to add a paragraph to your homepage, say above the rest of the content, then you could simply add a <div> tag.

    So, it might look like:

    <div id="header">
    <div id="message">Here's your message</div>
    </div>

    Something like that. It's hard to say exactly without seeing your site.

    Hope that helps a little

    or set a page as your main home page, then edit that page to your liking without messing with the index file
