How to make page automatically show on homepage?

[siamohajer1]

Hello,

I am wondering Is there a way to get new pages to be automatically posted to the homepage? Just like a blog roll of recent posts? thanks.

Hi there,

Please go to WP Admin > Settings > Reading > Your homepage displays : A static page then select the page you want to be the homepage.

Hope this helps.

Hello Jade,

Thanks for replaying, but that is not a answer i need.

On the xtheme has recent post short code can use, just like this http://demo.theme.co/integrity-1/shortcodes/recent-posts/

so i would like to use same short code but change ‘post’ to ‘page’. it’s that any possible? thanks.

Hi,

To achieve that, you can add the code below in your child theme’s functions.php file

add_filter( 'cs_recent_posts_post_types', 'x_recent_post_types' );
function x_recent_post_types(){
    return array('post' => 'post', 'page' => 'page');
}

You can then change the type to page in your shortcode

[recent_posts type="page" count="2" orientation="horizontal"]

Hope this helps
