I am working on building a new site. I am working in the site information and following the tutorial. One problem is with the default front page. This is the URL http://www.orlandparkhomeinspections.com and I am adding this to it /orland-park-home-inspector.html. I click "save configuration", then I click "Home", and instead of the URL being http://www.orlandparkhomeinspections.com/orland-park-home-inspector.html I get this http://www.orlandparkhomeinspections.com/home-inspector-home.html. It is reverting to default. Everything else saved just fine. When I go back to the site info page and look in the default front page, this is in the box orland-park-home-inspector.html. What am I doing wrong?

Also your home page right now is http://www.orlandparkhomeinspections.com/home-inspector-home.html if you want to change it, edit the Home Page, go down to URL and change the URL to say orland-park-home-inspector.html

Actually you got half of it done. You renamed your home page: http://www.orlandparkhomeinspections.com/orland-park-home-inspector.html

Now what you need to do is go to site information and change that last field to be: orland-park-home-inspector.html and you'll be set.

I already have it like that. I just checked it again and the site information has that in there already. The Default front page has this in the field orland-park-home-inspector.html. I am following the tutorial also.

Looks like you got it figured out. One tip, sometimes you need to hold shift and click refresh. This forces your computer to get the most recent site info. Otherwise your local browser may be storing pages and serving them to you.

You can add that logo to a block in the theme you're using and shrink it down a bit. You can add the text to the same block and turn off the company name and slogan under theme configuration.

I see where if I hover over "Home" it shows the change. Shouldn't show up in the adress bar and the blue section above the address bar? I shouldn't have dropped that computer class in college, dammit!!!

No it won't show up in the address bar. It purposely redirects the home page as Google would then see two pages with the exact same content and penalize you.

The blue section above the address bar is controlled by the Page Title and the Site Slogan.

Yeah, I am trying to figure that out now. I guess I am just slow. So your saying I can remove the default header image and put my logo in there?
