Make current post the homepage

Is there a plugin or code that I can use to make the most current post the homepage of my site. I want to display the actual blog post not a listing as you find in a blog roll.

I have searched for plugins but can't seem to find one that would allow this. I am sure I am not the only person to need this functionality and I am probably not finding the solution out there already.

Frustrated, appreciate your help.

• 1 Have you tried using a listing of 1? Note that plugin recommendations are off topic here. I'd also suggest redirecting to the latest post instead, as it's better for SEO and caching purposes – Tom J Nowell ♦ Commented Jul 4, 2019 at 16:49
• Thank you for the reply Tom. I am not worried about SEO for my site. I want to stay away from the blog roll look and have it just display the most recent post as the home page. – brian swanson Commented Jul 4, 2019 at 22:16
• Also keep in mind that if you post a new article, browsers may serve the older article from cache, as will any social media such as twitter/facebook/etc, redirecting is a much superior solution, and easier to implement. It also avoids the problem of people sharing the content on your homepage via the URL, then having it change without them knowing – Tom J Nowell ♦ Commented Jul 5, 2019 at 0:07
• Tom's first comment would do it, set the blog page to display full post content and limit the number posts displayed to 1. – majick Commented Jul 5, 2019 at 7:22

You can use custom template for showing current post on your home page. Using
'orderby' => 'date'

Like this example...

$args = array( 'post_type' => 'post', 'posts_per_page' => -1,  'orderby' => 'date' );
