Homepage Setup
Here is the quick step-by-step guide for how this theme’s demo homepage was setup from the WordPress admin panel. You can find much more information on the following steps in great detail by viewing the documentation that came in your theme’s download package. Keep in mind this is only a quick step-by-step for the theme demo’s homepage and you definitely do not have to setup your site in this way if you don’t want to.
- Install the theme under Appearance > Themes.
- Go to Settings > Reading > Frontpage Displays, and make sure you’ve selected “your latest posts”.
- Go to the Sliders page and create a custom slider.
- Go to the Builder page and create a new custom layout. Use “Barely Corporate Homepage” as your layout’s starting point. Configure your element settings, including selecting your custom slider in the slider element, and save the layout.
- Go to Appearance > Theme Options > Content > Homepage, select to show a custom layout, and select the custom layout you’ve created.
- Go to Appearance > Widget Areas and create a new custom widget area. For its location, select the “Right Sidebar” location. Under its assignments, apply it the homepage.
- Go to Appearance > Widgets and add the “Search” widget to your new custom sidebar along with the “Theme Blvd News Scroller” widget, which you can download here.

Sample Layouts
On the live demo, you will see a section on the main menu called Sample Layouts. Within this theme framework, sample layouts are not anything that require any kind of XML import file. When you go to the Layout Builder to build your custom layouts, you have the option to choose from any of these sample layouts as your starting point.
So, in other words, when you install the theme, you have all of the sample layouts. You don’t need to import anything or perform any additional tasks.
