Creating Pages and Setting Your Homepage

Pages are the building blocks of your site — Home, About, Contact, Shop and so on. This guide covers creating them, choosing which one visitors see first, and adding them to your navigation.

Create a new page

1. From the WordPress dashboard, go to Pages » Add New.

2. Give the page a title (for example, About).

3. Choose how to build it:

   • Click Edit with Elementor to design it visually with drag-and-drop, or
   • Use the default WordPress editor for simple text content.

4. Click Publish. Repeat for every page your site needs.

Tip

Pages built with Elementor can reuse your Global Sections for shared headers, footers and calls to action — so you design those once and they appear everywhere, keeping every page consistent.

Set your homepage

By default, WordPress shows your latest blog posts on the front page. To display a page you’ve designed instead:

1. Go to Settings » Reading.

2. Under Your homepage displays, select A static page.

3. Choose your designed page in the Homepage dropdown.

4. (Optional) Pick a page for Posts page if you also keep a blog. Leave it blank if you don’t.

5. Click Save Changes.

The page you selected is now the first thing visitors see.

Note

A page can’t serve as both the homepage and the posts page. If you run a blog, create a separate empty page (named Blog, for example) and assign it as the Posts page.

Add pages to your menu

For visitors to reach your pages, add them to a navigation menu:

1. Go to Appearance » Menus.

2. Create a menu (or select an existing one), tick the pages you want under Add menu items, and click Add to Menu.

3. Drag items to reorder or nest them, then click Save Menu.

Your Navbar displays this menu. For an advanced, multi-column dropdown with images and widgets, build a Mega Menu and attach it to a menu item.

Next Choose the right layout per page with Page Templates.
