Hitting the keys on your keyboard or scolding your computer won’t help. Here’s the solution.
To not be able to update the blog page is one of the most common challenges in WordPress. A Google search for “can’t edit blog page” returns 678 000 000(!) results. Here’s the explanation to why you can’t edit your posts page – and how to fix it.
⚡ Here’s the blog post mentioned in the video: https://divimundo.com/en/blog/fix-cant-edit-blog-page/
I will use Divi in this example, but the fast fix will work for any WordPress page builder, for example:
* Elementor and Elementor Pro
* WP Bakery
* Gutenberg Blocks
* Brizy Builder
* Visual Composer
* … and more.

Great! I've seen many videos and couldn't get this resolved. Your video helped me atlast👍 thank you!
Hi, I need help. Im unable to edit the home page in WP. Using Divi theme, whenever I click edit on the home page. It will prompt 3 options, start building, browse layouts and choose page (clone). I have tried searching high and low online, exploring all the menus in WP but I still can't find the solution to it.
My blog post only shows the title and featured image but not the whole article
So if I take it off as a "Posts Page", how will I be able to add my posts to that page?
Savior! I had basically given up and accepted… So happy to have my DiviMundo News Page format back 🥳
many appreciations for this tips
I'm so gratefull for this tutorial, Thank you!
Thanks for all your help, sir. It worked.
This was a life-saver. Thank you!
Is it possible to have a display photo beside the recent posts or comments?
That worked. Thank you!
Thank you, very helpful!
Hi! I change the setting in the first place of the POSTS option but when I select default all my posts disappear and it shows a blank page when I change the setting and add a post page everything is there but can't edit pictures or anything. I am using Elementor.
This is rubbish. You simply just changed the posts page. Now permalinks and breadcrumbs will be a mess. The actual defined posts page needs to be edited.
THANK YOU!👊
Omg thank you so much I've been trying to figure this out and I couldn't until I found your video! Thank you so much! You saved my website 😀
Yes it is helped out, thanks for sharing and subscribed. 👍👍
Thanks brother👍 it helped
Exactly what i was looking for. Thank you
Thank you so much
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much, Ive been adding margins and paddings like crazy and nothing changed, thanks!!!
I just tried this, and all it seemed to do is change my blog page into a normal page. Yes, I could edit it with Elementor now, but it has no content. I already had a page with the Elementor Posts widget as a temporary solution, but I want my posts page to inherit the posts layout, which has a sidebar that all posts inherit. Setting it as the blog page does that, but then I can't edit it, which I need to do because my main menu has white text in a transparent header, and the blog pages have a white background. Back to the drawing board.
Thank you! I was checking blocks, customize, and Kadence, and WordPress articles. You're the first person I found to solve this. I hope not having a posts page selected doesn't affect SEO?
Thanks, no one mentioned this issue, you help me to resolve this. Very useful video.
This a great video but I am still stuck after going to settings and changing the option to select, I am able to edit the page (which is great!) but all the blog posts have disappeared, I wondered if you had any advice to help me fix this please? Many thanks
hmm but i still cannot edit the post page
how do you edit the page that a chosen blog creates. ?
Great video. Im trying to edit my dads website but Im not seeing settings on the dashboard. Do you know how to fix this?
You're awesome! 100%

Thank you! This is exactly what I needed and couldn't find anywhere else.
… ano excellent video as usual, ty 🙂
Thank you 🙏
Thanks allot i was struggling with this for way to long 😅
If you remove Blog from setting It does not see the "posts" you created. So the link goes missing. Unless you manually add shortcodes to link the posts. Your fix is NOT CORRECT
Thank you for your support and support
Thank you brother
I will check if it works on my WP, thanks
My blog posts still appear under /homepage/postname instead of /homepage/blogs/postname. With blogs as the posts page in settings or empty it's the same. Why?
Thank you! This worked for me.
I would just like to reach out to you and say a huge thank you for creating this video. For over two weeks now I had been trying to discover why the heck my blog page had stopped working as it should.. not even showing the featured image or anything. And today, after i said out loud that this would be the last time i tried to fix it, i searched a big well known search engine again, and your video was the first to come up! It hadn't been in my search results previously. Needless to say, it is all now sorted, thanks to you. I am beyond grateful. Jo x😁
You are a Legend!
Thanks it helped 😍
I am trying to edit post pages by category, not for every post in general. How can I do that? Thanks.
Great advice. Thank you!
