I have a problem I can't solve:  

When I go to my client's website at  bartosandrini.com the Home tab is not highlighted, in fact a completely different tab, Criminal/Traffic, is highlighted. This problem showed up after one of my client's blog editors selected   Promoted to front page in the Publishing options section.

These are my settings across the site

In Site Configuration > Site Information (or /admin/settings/site-information)

http://bartosandrini.com/ 
The home page displays content from this relative URL. If unsure, specify "node".

In the footer section on the same page and I am using <a href="/"><u>Home</u></a>

In Site Building > Menus > Primary Links (or /admin/build/menu/item/1964/edit)

Menu settings

In Site Building > Blocks after selecting configure for the rotor in the content top block
(or /admin/build/block/configure/views/rotor-block_1)

Page specific visibility settings
Enter one page per line as Drupal paths. The '*' character is a wildcard. Example paths are blog for the blog page and blog/* for every personal blog. <front> is the front page. If the PHP-mode is chosen, enter PHP code between <?php ?>. Note that executing incorrect PHP-code can break your Drupal site.

This problem first occurred in January and below is a copy of the advice I received. Initially, this worked for me. This advice does not work and I really don't know what to do or how to troubleshoot this.

The URL path settings should be front and not home.

did not work for me

I did that but I am still unable to see the Home tab highlighted in the Primary menu. Any ideas?

Check admin/build/path/list that the alias exists, if not create it

alias exists in one part of the list

in a filtered list nodes, I see node/33 = node/33 and if I try to change that it says that home is already being used.
Without a filter, home = node/33. Is this something I should change in the database so that forward or reverse it says home = node/33 and node/33 = home? Or should I delete the extra node/33 listing?

home is an Alias and node/33 is in System.

delete that and start again, on the site info page make front page: node

Then make you menu path <front> call it anything you want ie Home

wow! Thanks a lot.

That worked. Should I leave everything as is now? And moreover how did I get it so confused? Did I not read correctly somewhere down the line? I reset this (I don't remember how now) a few times and every time I ran a major update it changed itself. Do you think this might happen again?
