Comment (by codeinwp):
@Chip thank you for the comments!
I really think that the way how this is working now ( create an empty
page, then select that page as frontpage) is just wrong, let's assume for
a sec that you have just discovered WordPress today, do you find this
logic easy to understand/use ) ?
Now back to your suggestions, which we also took into consideration when
came with this solution :
1. Is not very different to what we are doing, we can create another
dropdown, but I am not sure I see the point, however any feedback is
welcome
2. This is a good idea, however what I don't like is that if the user is
trying 3-4 themes, he will end up with x extra pages that need to be
deleted
3. Like 2, we have discussed this internally and this again might confuse
the user, to auto-create content, however is still better that what we
have at the moment
Would be happy to get other feedback and find a common solution :)
