I am trying to remove a block from the home page.

I have checked Show on every page except the listed pages.

I typed into the comment block and that did not work. I also tried the complete URL and typing node/1.

Can you let me know how to remove a block from the front page?

Thank you

This has nothing to do with the theme, but I'll answer it anyway.

To have a block not display on the frontpage, go to configure it, and under "Page specific visibility settings":
- Select: "Show on every page except the listed pages."
- Enter <front>, like it describes right there:

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.

Yes, I have tried that and it does not remove the block.

I agree with Casselberrian - Manuel Garcia's answer still doesn't work in Drupal 7.

In Drupal 7, at least, this was a solution that I found worked.

Create a basic page, address is node/1 (for example).
Go to Configuration > System > Site information and set the Default front page to node/1.
