bricks_set_homepage

Sets a specific WordPress page as the static front page (homepage). This configures WordPress to display the chosen page when visitors access the site root URL instead of showing the default blog posts listing.

Internally this updates the WordPress reading settings: it sets the « Your homepage displays » option to « A static page » and assigns the specified page as the front page. This is typically called once after creating and populating the homepage during the site build workflow.
