I had my home page set … I made another page that I now want to set at my static home page.
Set now to: http://dev-ejcj-huborfaleacenterucsbedu.pantheonsite.io/wp-admin/post.php?post=13&action=edit
I want to set it to this page: http://dev-ejcj-huborfaleacenterucsbedu.pantheonsite.io/home-1/
And soon to yet another page …
But when I select Enfold>Theme Options>General Layout>Front Page Settings, the page I want is not listed …
So I tried selecting Customize>Static Front Page and a “Front Page Select” drop down menu appears, but does not list the page I want to use.
What am I missing? It’s probably very simple … but I’m at a dead loss ….
Thank you for your consideration,

Have you tried the traditional method of going through Settings? https://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page
Best regards,
Jordan ShannonJune 27, 2017 at 3:41 am #813280Thank you … but are you referring to the Word Press settings? Or the Word Press Theme settings for my Enfold theme—which is where I assume it should be done.
The key point is that the page I want as my static front page already exists as one of the regular pages on the site… and now I want to move it to be the Static Front Page, but the menus for selecting the page to make the static front page do not include the Page I want to select.
On the Dashboard (which is what I think you must mean by ‘Administration’)>Settings>Reading>Front Page Displays>Static Page>Select Front Page path, the menu provided includes just a few apparently Random pages from my site.
On the Dashboard>Appearance>Themes>Enfold>Customize>Front Page>Static Page path, the drop down menu gives me a few apparently random pages from all of my pages to choose from … and no way to select from the full range of pages.
On the Enfold>Theme Options>General Styling>Frontpage Settings path, it’s the same …. no access to all of my pages.
So … briefly … how do I convert one of my standard pages, built with care over many weeks, to be my Static Front Page … the link you gave me is very general and provides no solution.
Thankyou for your attention, I’m sure it’s something basic I’m missing, but the menus just don’t allow access.
Does the page I want to select have to have certain characteristics?
I can tell you now on that page’s editor, under Page Attributes, I have it set:
Parent: No Parents
Template: Default Template
Sidebar Settings: Default Sidebars
Footer Settings: Default Layout – Set in Enfold
Header Visibility and transparency: Transparent header with BorderThank you kindly!

You should be able to go to Settings > Reading > Front Page Displays. Simply select the page you want to display.
Best regards,
