Boxes on home page

Recommended Posts

kswaters

Hi guys. I've been searching the forum and can't find out how to put boxes on my home page, which is a list of my posts. Here is my home page - www.allaboutagile.com - I'd ideally like to have 3 boxes at the bottom of the page above the footer to promote other areas of the site. I have figured out how to add boxes to a Page, but since my home page isn't shown in the Pages area, I don't know how to add the boxes settings? Am I missing something simple? Kelly.

Kelly, have you told Wordpress where your home page is?

Hi David. In the Settings/Writing section, I have set it to display my latest posts as my home page, rather than pointing to a static Page. Hence why I don't have a Page to set up the Boxes on. Is there a way to do this or do I have to create a new static Page and somehow pull my list of posts into it? Kelly.

Hey Kelly. I'm a newbie, so not sure about it. Do this would work for you? - go to Settings Platform Pro > Template Setup - choose Default Page in Select Template Area - drag and drop from right to left (i'm a liberal) "Page Liine Boxes" If it doesn't work, I'll try: - go to Settings Platform Pro > Template Setup - choose Default Page in Select Morefoot area - Check there is "MOrefoot Sidebars" activated (if not, do so) - Go to Widgets at Wordpress - Feed the Morefoot with the widgets you want (left center right). Hope it helps Toni

Hi Toni, your first idea doesn't work because there's nowhere to tell PageLinesPro what box sets to put on the page, as normally that connection is made on the Page screen. But your second idea of using Morefoot areas works just fine and will do very nicely, many thanks! Kelly.

@Kelly Do you need more assistance with this or did the Morefoot solution work out for you?
