To start editing your homepage just visit the front-end while logged in as the admin. The theme will display the editing functionality to any admin currently logged in to the site. Regular visitors won’t see the editor.

Adding and editing text

To edit a text headline or paragraph simply click into the area you want to change, delete the existing content and start typing your own. Styling the text with HTML is not possible.

To change the font click on the Fonts section in the top left corner of the page and choose the font you want to use.

Adding images (logo, icons, etc)

To replace a sample image with one of your own just click onto the image and choose a substitute from your hard drive. The theme will automatically crop and resize/stretch the image to fit the frame.

Content blocks

Blocks are predefined elements containing sample content. They make up most of what you see on your homepage.

Adding a new blocks

To add a new block to your homepage expand the “Blocks” dropdown at the top of the page and drag the block you want to use onto the page. Each block contains dummy content which will allow you to see how the final result should look like.

General block options

Each blocks contains option that allow you to manipulate or modify the block.

Move
To move a block hover over it (with your mouse) and then click and hold the move icon. Now simply drag the block into it’s new location.

Copy
Creates a carbon copy of your block and places is directly below the original block.

Delete
Deletes the block from the page.

Reset
Undo’s all your changes and loads back the original (dummy) content. You can achieve the same thing by deleting the block and dragging a new one (of the same type) from the Blocks dropdown.

Change image
This option shows up inside blocks that have background images. It allows you to upload a new background image from your hard drive. I recommend using Full HD images (1920x1080px).

Setting up the latest news block

Do it by uploading a new image specifically to that blog post. Details on how to accomplish this are provided in the following article
