taichroth_84Hi - sounds like he could well have deleted the homepage from the Site Pages library. The homepage is the main landing page for all links to the site so editing the URL of a link to the Site Pages library will allow you to set another page as homepage. Alternatively you can go to the recycle bin and restore the deleted page.
