Remove home page post feature

Hi there,

I would like to replace the home page posts feature area with a few paragraphs of text - how do I do that.

Alos I did squeeze in a youtube video by adding it to the front-page.php - does the code look correct??

Hello,

1. Go to the front-page.php file present in your theme directory and paste the code given below in that file as instructed in the image given below.

Code:

<p>Enter your paragraph text here</p> 

2. We have visited to your website, it seems that you have changed some setting due to which theme default front page is disappear so I am unable to see your front page.

 

Thanks for the code Piyush, it concerns me you cannot see the front page....I have it up on my computer. I use safari - and have cleared caches to double check. I tried it on Chrome and Firefox and it does not show up!!! Do I need a new thread for this issue - it's big... ;-/

thanks,

Nicole

Go to the Appearance > Theme Options > General Settings panel in your dashboard and turn ON the Front Page.
And after that go to the Settings > Reading panel in your dashboard and set reading setting as shown in image given below.




I hope this will solve your issue.

 

Thanks Piyush, I can now view the site on Firefox and Chrome, but that brings the logo in front of the sliders which does not look good (covers over too much)...now what??

 

Hello,

Could you please specify your issue with the help of screenshot images.

 

Hi Piyush, I understand as per other forum posts, that the transparent overlay style logo option is set by going to settings>reading> "your recent posts" - it doesn't work with the images I have in the slider as it covers too much of the image...after I set it as described above, the site was also viewable on firefox and chrome - why is a mystery...!

I put it back to 'a static page' and chose the old website front page from the drop down menu options ( yes nothing of that page shows on this new template front page but that's ok) - the logo is above the slider again which looks better.


So it's all fine now...

Back to the original question...thank you - the css edit works beautifully! ...Can I tidy up the Home Page tab Feature and Widget above the text also... as per attachment-
(1)the Tab Feature has too much space on the titles area and not enough on the text area. - can the tab titles area be narrowed?
(2) there needs to be a space between the video and the feature/widget area.
(3) the outer edge of the widget is set in - can it line up with the edge of the video



thank you so much guys - love your support ;-))
