My wordpress site is set up to be a static wordpress page (named "home"). Recently though, the site is pointing the home page to index.html instead of the "home" page. Even when I change the home page from "home" to something like "about" it will still direct to index.html
, also it does it when I manually type in site.com/home
or site.com/index.php
.
Is there a way to revert it back? I have done nothing to the site recently, it is just a static informational site and gets updated once a year. The last time it was updated was about 6 months ago.
The theme is Noteblog

A typical wordpress installation doesn't have an index.html
page/file, but instead an index.php
. index.html
could be a file that a provider puts into the webspace as a kind of "this domain is reserved for one of our clients" message.
Check if there is also an index.php
file in your theme directory. If yes, just delete the index.html
- that should be the solution in this case.
