Reading is set to display a static home page because that’s what I’m trying to do. Have a static home page and a separate blog page. So, the settings are: A Static Page and then Front Page to a page named Home and Posts Page to a page named Blog. If I then go into the pages section to confirm, the page named Home notes that it’s the Front Page and the page named Blog shows that it’s the Post Page.
The problem is that while the page named Home does in fact display the static content the page named Blog also shows the static content rather then displaying the blog posts.
