A homepage serves as the first page visitors see when they arrive at your site. You can set any page type as your homepage, and visitors can always return to it by clicking your site title or logo.

Checking Your Current Homepage

1. Open the Pages panel
2. Look for the home icon next to a page title - this indicates your current homepage

Setting a New Homepage

1. In the Pages panel, hover over the desired page's title and click the settings icon
2. Scroll down to "Set as Homepage"
3. Click Confirm in the popup message
4. Save your changes

The new homepage will display a home icon, while the previous homepage remains in its original position without the icon.

After Setting Your Homepage

You can:

• Delete or rename the old homepage
• Move the new homepage to the top of your main navigation
• Hide it from navigation menus by moving it to the "Not linked" section

Troubleshooting Homepage Issues

If you see a "We couldn't find the page" error, check for these common causes:

1. Disabled Homepage

• Solution: Set a different page as homepage temporarily
• Enable the original homepage
• Set it back as homepage

2. Template Preview Issues (Version 7.0)

• Ensure you haven't deleted your live template's homepage while previewing a new template
• Either make your preview template live or restore the deleted homepage

Important Notes

• Pages within an index can't be set as homepage (Version 7.0)
• To use an indexed page as homepage, first move it out of the index
• Homepage pages can't be moved into an index after being set as homepage

This comprehensive guide ensures proper homepage setup and troubleshooting for your website.
