Static Body Home page with slider & widgets

Hi,

I sent an email to explain my query prior to purchasing the theme, i've now purchased the frame so hopefully i can resolve quickly.

www.surreystoveinstallations.co.uk

Currently this home page is set up as blog, not static. As when i change to static i loose the slider and the three horizontal widgets. I would like it to look as it does now but where the blog post is displayed i would like to display a couple paragaphs of welcome text.

Can you please advise the best way to create this?

Many thanks

Louis

 

Coincidently can you confirm how i can now upgrade my theme to pro now that i have bought the pro theme.

Thanks

 

Hi,

Any chance someone could assist ASAP?

Thank you.

 

Hello Louis,

To upgrade the theme, you have to first delete the older theme from your dashboard.

Note: - Please create a backup of your website before upgrading the theme.

Please follow the video link to delete theme from your dashboard :-

Thanks Praveen,

This is done now, thank you. Could you explain how i can change the "latest from the blog" section of the home page so i can have a small paragraph of text?

 

Hello Louis,

Go to Appearance->Theme Options->Home Page Testimonial Feature and write your text in Home Page Blog Heading Text section.
See attachment for the reference.


Thanks,

Thanks but this only changes the Header, how do i add/change the body of the text to appear beneath the header?

 

Hello Louis,

Please clear it to me...

Do you want to remove the blog slider and replace it with your text/paragraph?

It will be better if you provide me some edited screenshot indicating your requirement.

Thanks,
Praveen

 

This is essentially what i'm trying to create, beneath the three column feature.

 

Hello Louis,

Please follow the screenshot given below.

Code:

  <div class="clear"></div>
  <div class="my_custom_section">
    <div class="grid_24">
  <h1>MY CUSTOM HEADING</h1>
      <p>My Custom text...</p>
    </div> 
  </div>
  <div class="clear"></div>

Now, paste the code given below in Custom CSS section
(Appearance -> Theme Options -> Styling Options -> Custom CSS) of your dashboard.

Code:

.my_custom_section {
  text-align: center;
}
.my_custom_section .grid_24 {
  border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(202, 190, 190);
  margin-bottom: 30px;
}

Thanks,
Praveen
