   Field	Description
   Title	Enter the title of the homepage that appears at the top.

   Order	Enter a value that specifies where in the choice list of homepages that this page appears. Lower values move the page up the choice list.
   Write roles	Specify the roles you want users to have to edit this homepage. Write roles limit who can make edits to the page, such as adding and moving widgets or deleting the homepage.

Note: Users who only have Read access create new versions of a homepage when they edit the homepage. Note: If no write roles are specified on a homepage, then any user with one of the specified read roles may access this page and delete it. For more information, see Secure a homepage.
