Description

If no pages, except for the Sample page, exist, automatically creating a new page fails when enabling a static front page. This is due to $_POST[ 'page_on_front' ] not existing and not having the value "new".

How to reproduce:

  • Install a fresh checkout of trunk.
  • Go to Setting > Reading
  • Check "Show a page instead of your latest posts"
  • Hit "Save changes"

This fixes the problem. It creates a hidden input "page_on_front" with value "new".

Also reported in ticket:16379:84 and can be fixed with ticket:16379:16379.9.patch​.

However, the UI may be changed again soon, so the fix wasn't committed yet.
