How to have a blank home page

    Hi.

    I’m just wondering if there’s a way to create a home page that has nothing on it, so you’d have to click on a menu item to see anything.

    I’ve already tried the static front page – but, of course, that means I have to have a page there.

    I’d just like to have the focus when people enter my site to be my logo, which I plan on using as the background image. (It’s still being designed at the moment.)

    Thanks!

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Also, I’m trying to remove the dates I posted each post and page, and have tried several CSS iterations I’ve found on the forums (the latest is:

    .post-date {
    display: none;
    }

    Can you help me with that, too?

    Hi there,

    It sounds like you’re trying to create a splash page, is that right? Unfortunately, this is not possible without extensive modifications to your theme.

    I’m sorry this isn’t the answer you’re hoping to hear :(

    It’s OK – I can just make the home page an “about me” page I guess.

    But how do I remove the dates from each post and page? Since I’m using this as a website and not a blog, I’d rather not have them there.

    Never mind – I found the answer here.

    It’s:
    h4 {
    display:none;
    }

    (just in case anyone else is scouring the forums like I was ;) ).
