Ticket #16379, comment 114
initial v1 1 After trying to understand the current behavior (what is i ssupposed to do) for a pretty long time, I was (gladly) pointed at this ticket.1 After trying to understand the current behavior (what is it supposed to do) for a pretty long time, I was (gladly) pointed at this ticket. 2 2 3 3 Here're my 0.2 cents: 4 4 5 If one selects (in "as it is"-UI) "A static page" and selects nothing, then WP automatically resets it to "Your latest posts" without any further notice why this happened. When I got a {{{home.php}}} and a {{{front-page.php}}} file in my theme, then I'd expect WP to use them by default, not only if I've created and selected a page for it. This simply isn't needed in every case (front page with just a title and a searchform for e.g.), so why force it? Or at least tell - in some admin notice - that there has to be a real site instead of just moving to a setting the user never made by himself.5 If one selects (in the current UI) "A static page" and selects nothing from the drop-downs, then WP automatically resets it to "Your latest posts" without any further notice why this happened.
