Just upgraded theme to WH Pro, however, error message displayed in the feature box area on home page www.heatri.com Any tips? Thanks

Did you already set up the feature settings?

I believe so - I used this theme for another site and the feature bozes on the home page automatically appeared.

Also having issue with sidebars - they are not appearing throughout the site either

Appears the problem is in assigning the home page - when I created the new page for 'home' the permalink http://www.heatri.com/home-2/ was created. WP will not allow me to delete the /home-2. Any suggestions on how to assign this new page as the home page?

You can make that new page a home page by going to Settings > Reading. Just make the new page the "static" home page.

I am having the same issue, but can't seem to resolve with the above information. Can you tell me how I can be sure that I enabled the feature boxes for the home page, and alternatively as you suggested how to set a new page as the home page. Can't seem to find the menu options described above. Thanks.
