home page

My static homepage isn’t showing up anymore.
If I un-set the page in settings->reading I can see it by going to the link:
http://mydailyread.com/home/
but if set it to be the homepage, it just shows up as a blank page.
I also created a test page with the same results.

Thanks,
Tom

Try resaving permalinks, turning off any new plugins — if something “suddenly” stops working, it usually comes from a plugin update that no longer “plays nice” — a caching issue, or issue with CDN/similar.

Try
a) resave permalinks
b) clear any/all caching
c) turn off all plugins except Visual Composer.

See what happens.

Might or might not help. I’ve also found naming the static home page something other than “home” works better, like “homepager” since the static page isn’t supposed to be seen by anyone — it’s just for building the page which gets loaded by the theme as the default home; so nobody should be going to yoursite.zz/nameofhomepage

Thanks Chris.
It turns out it was the Visual Composer plugin. I deactivated and then reactivated it and then things started working again. Very strange, but I’m glad I’m back.

Thanks!
Tom
