Having a Static Home Page: WordPress 2.1

As an addendum to the previous post on the anatomy of a WordPress site, I wanted to mention a new feature of WordPress 2.1.

Choosing your Front or “Home” page.

WordPress 2.1 now allows you to choose any of your “static” pages as your home page. So that when users first visit your site, they will see a static “home” page, then proceed to your blog area if they choose to.

This is a great feature for those who wish to use WordPress as their main Website, and want more of a classic Website look and structure.
