			<description><p>Hey Chris,</p>
<p>So, I 've included the wp_head() again and the problem occurred once more. I then found/replaced all the $id variables inside the header.php with something else (other than $id because it is common e.g. $welcome_id) and it worked like a charm.</p>
<p>I am guessing that if the problem is caused by a plugin, then this would be WPML since it is the only plugin I have installed for the site.</p>
<p>I think that in a future update of your theme, you should consider changing the variable name since WPML is being used by many users.</p>
<p>Thank you SO MUCH for your support and your patience! Have a nice day! :)

			<description><p>Hi there,</p>
<p>wp_head() is required/necessary. If that's causing the issue, it sounds like a plugin you have installed might be causing a problem.</p>
<p>Best,</p>
<p>Chris

			<description><p>I've commented out the wp_head() call and it seems to be working just fine. I only need your confirmation that the wp_head call is indeed unnecessary.</p>
<p>Thank you for your help

			<description><p>Dear Chris,<br />
I just found out that the id is stored correctly but it changes right after the wp_head() in line 96. Is that call necessary?

			<description><p>Hi there,</p>
<p>Thanks for following up! </p>
<p>Strange the selection isn't being stored. That sounds like a WordPress issue as the theme is using the WordPress theme customizer.</p>
<p>Is that fix sufficient for you? If not, let me know.</p>
<p>Best,</p>
<p>Chirs

			<description><p>I also changed the id in the query (header.php line 131) so it would not take the $id parameter but the actual number of the page id and it works. It seems like the id is not stored.

			<description><p>Hey there,</p>
<p>You 're right, this was from a previous theme installed. I have deleted it and now it's back to default. But still no difference.</p>
<p>Site translation is being achieved through WPML.

			<description><p>Hi there,</p>
<p>Looking at your source code, I see you're using a page template called "Page-home.php". This isn't a built-in page template. I wonder if that's the cause of the problem.</p>
<p>Have tried deactivating plugins?</p>
<p>Also, how are you achieving site translation?</p>
<p>Let me know.</p>
<p>Best,</p>
<p>Chris

			<description><p>Hi there,</p>
<p>The "<code>is_front_page</code>" also applies to static pages, so that shouldn't be an issue. Can you provide a link to your site?</p>
<p>Best,</p>
<p>Chris

			<description><p>Chris,</p>
<p>I created a page for that space but it keeps ignoring it. I assign it to the Home Page tab &#62; "Page to display in header". It just ignores it.</p>
<p>I noticed that in header.php line 124, the code checks if it is a front page and the id is not blank. Could it be that the id is not stored from settings? Just a thought.

			<description><p>Hi there,</p>
<p>You need to create a page for that space. The demo site has the following content in the "Welcome" page...</p>
<pre><code>&#60;h1&#62;Welcome to The Kitchen Table&#60;/h1&#62;
A super simple WP theme for showcasing your finest recipes.

<p>Let me know if that helps.</p>
<p>Best,</p>

			<description><p>Chris,</p>
<p>I changed that from Appearance &#62; Customize but nothing happens. It still shows the same page twice.<br />
Should I assign the pages with a different template? They are now both set to default.

			<description><p>Hi there,</p>
<p>You need to specify a different page for the header area. That's also controlled from "apperance" &#62; "customize"</p>

			<description><p>Thank you for your immediate answer.</p>
<p>I changed the color successfully, thanks for that! :)</p>
<p>The static page however, is being displayed twice: Once in the header and again in the middle column.

			<description><p>Hi there,</p>
<p>To change the home page, navigate to "settings" &#62; "reading" and select a static front page there. You can disregard the "Posts page" option.</p>
<p>To change the header color, navigate to "apperance" &#62; "customize" and in the colors tab you can change the accent color there.</p>
<p>Let me know if that helps.</p>
<p>Best,</p>
<p>Chris

			<description><p>Hi there,</p>
<p>I would like some help on how I can add a static front page as a home page instead of Latest/Featured/Popular.</p>
<p>Also is there any way in changing the overlay color of the header?</p>
<p>Regards,<br />
Stelios
