Problems with Home Page settings

Hi there,
I have a website and there seems to be an issue regarding the HP settings:

  1. It has the extension /home in the URL - which is a problem, cos I’d like it to be without it, as homepages go. Meaning: Instead of being what it is right now - web-done.co.il/home
    I want it to be - web-done.co.il

  2. I can’t make it the front-page; for some reason there’s a different page set as the front page and it won’t let me change it. I change it, when I save it it reverts back to what it was.

Please help :slight_smile:
Cheers,

Hi there,

You should be able to set the homepage of your site in Settings > Reading > Your homepage displays : A static page.

Once you set the page, you should be able to see the page you set as the homepage without any other url segment in the address bar. But as I have check, it seems that you are using a multilanguage plugin on your site which most possibly be adding the extension in the homepage’s URL.

Kindly look into the settings of that plugin as most multilanguage plugin should have the settings where the extra text will not be added to the homepage’s URL.

Hope this helps.

Hi there,
Of course I’ve done that. It wouldn’t save.

I disabled the Polylang plugin and it seems to be working now.
Is there a known problem between polylang and X?

Thanks,

Hi @liorgo81

I’m not sure which options page that can’t be saved with Polylang plugin activated? can you tell us more details about how to reproduce this issue?

Also, I believe this issue has something to do with Polylang settings, please check these guides:
https://polylang.pro/doc/url-modifications/#front-page-url
https://polylang.pro/doc/define-your-home-page-as-a-static-page/

In the first guide, it says:

If English is your default language, you can even hide this language code /en/ by checking the option ❻. When both options ❻ and ❽ are checked, the URLs of your home pages look like:

http://www.yoursite.com/
http://www.yoursite.com/fr/

Isn’t that what you are trying to do?

Thanks.
