displaying the 'about' details in wp
Michael
via web
hi, great work on hemingway, and i'm curious as to how the updates and revisions unfold.
one question, i have the 'about' bar active in hemingway wordpress, but i can't seem to find where this content lives, or how to edit/display it. i get the header to display, but that's it. apologies if this is a basic question. (i think it was displaying in a previous theme i had installed.)

Michael, I accidentally deleted this. Once I restored it my content was gone and I couldn't figure out how to edit it. I hope that they answer this question.

I made a new page called "about", and the blogg put it at the right place. But it also put it listed in the "pages" section were I dont want it.

I accidentally deleted it too! I'm in the exact same situation as Jacob. I can't figure out how to restore it. The dashboard says it's there, but it doesn't show up on the actual page.

I found the answer on wp forums. Go to "pages" in the dashboard and click "edit". If you do not have a page that says "About" make one. Make sure the permalink there ends in /about/ and Hemingway will pick it up and display it on the blog like it did before we all deleted it. Wordpress might try to end the permalink with /about-2, so you have to double check.

Thanks for the helpful tip, Natalie. I tried to change the permalink to end with /about/ but wordpress is changing it back to /about-2/ I even changed the page id (just to make sure it wasn't causing this problem).
Is there a way around this?
