Setting up a wordpress site for work.
They'd like the front page to be their latest posts (i.e. how Wordpress comes as default - not a static front page)

I've set this up, however it seems limited in comparison to other pages in that I can't set which template it uses etc.

The main issue is that it puts a blog 'Blog' title at the top of the page which I'd like to remove.

If it was a static page that I could edit through the pages menu I could do that, but I can't find anywhere in the menus to control it. Had a look in the Appearance > Editor menu and looked through all the PHP files but can't find the right one.

I've also tried setting the site to having a static front page and setting both to a 'News' page I created, but it gives a warning saying they shouldn't be the same page and the homepage displays another random page (projects???)

Any ideas?

Actually, just figured it out.
Set the site to have a static front page, didn't select a front page and set news (first item in menu) to be the posts page and then removed the title from it, but left the slug as news
