Can you link to what you want to edit? Some details would be nice.

Wordpress is modular. It takes a lot of stuff to build the frontpage.

header.php
post.php
sidebar.php
footer.php
style.css <—Use this if you just want to change colors.

Most of these are called when your page is viewed.

So it is a bit impossible to help without more info.

@Pixilated I found this link through Google.com

http://wordpress.org/support/topic/419759

Part of the text is this:

“If anyones having the same issue you do the following:

Settings > Reading > Front page displays (edit this)

This is for WP v3.0 :

Hope that helps.

@Andreas :: That only lets you change what page is displayed first. Here is what mine looks like. So I could use it to display the about page when a person views the homepage then I could make it so a tab in the navigation goes to the blog. That is all you can do with it.

@johnpowell I haven’t got a WP blog at the moment, so I had to rely on Google. I am wrong in my answer. Thank you.
