WordPress Tutorial - Make Static Page Your Home Page -Part 3

This WordPress Tutorial follows-up to the tutorials "Make a Static Page Your Home/Front Page" and "Make a Static Page Your Home Page - Part 2". Tutorial Part 2 shows how to hide the link to a page that you use as your home page so that people aren't confused by the fact that there are two links to the same page in your main site navigation. That technique works when you have navigation in the sidebar that shows subpages AND you actually have subpages that are part of your site. If you don't have subpages, there is no way to hide the link to your home page because it will show up in the navigation as a subpage link. So, instead, this tutorial Part 3 shows you how to customize a sidebar using WordPress Widgets. This allows you to remove the page navigation from the sidebar. That way, you can make the home page a subpage and the link won't show in the main navigation. Confused? Forgive me! It's not as hard as it may sound. Check out the tutorial and you will see what I mean.
