Courses Plus Student 403 Pointsfront-page.php not loading
I have the convention Zach discusses, it makes sense. My problem/question is why my empty front-page.php is not loading. He states that with no content in the front-page.php you will not see any content. Then he adds some and we see it. My front-page.php is empty and I still am seeing content from index.php? Thanks

Courses Plus Student 19,270 PointsIn Settings > Reading try selecting "Front page displays a: 'static page'" and set the front page to the page name where you're expecting to see the front-page.php template. You can then set your posts page to whatever you'd like your blog posts (index.php by default) page to be.

Courses Plus Student 403 PointsThank you both it seems like I need to have the drop-down for Front page as "Home" for it to do what Zach said it should. I don't know If I missed that step. Thanks
