How can I create a homepage for a website where the homepage was accidentally deleted?

Hi there, can you try this?

Start here: https://wordpress.com/page

Add a new page, call it Home, or whatever you want.

Choose a page template as you like.

Edit the page to replace images / add text / etc, and then publish it.

Then, Go to My Site > Customize, and click on Homepage Settings. Select the page you just made.

That should do the trick — want to give it a try? If it doesn’t work, you might have an older theme with its own setup instructions. Could you send a link to your site?

The issue is now solved. Thank you. I did not realize I had to publish the site first to see the option to set the home page.
