Step 1
Create a new page and call it “Home” (or whatever you like).
Step 2
Set that page as your front page in Settings > Reading. If you do not want a static page as your homepage you can choose to set your homepage as the latest posts page.
Step 3
Navigate to Theme Options > Homepage Header and choose and create a header for your home page. Or select none. If using Page Title you will see an option to enable typed text. See example here.
*To learn more about header styles see here.
Step 4
Navigate to Theme Options > Home Page Layout.
- Choose if you want to have a sidebar on your page. If so, select a sidebar to use (you can create sidebars from Theme Options > Misc Settings and add content from Appearance > Widgets).
- Enable the modules you want and organize them by dragging and dropping. In order to display either your static page or latest posts page (Settings > Reading) be sure to enable Page Content.
- In the dropdown menu under Home Page Layout you can click the modules you have enabled and edit its settings.

- If setting your homepage as a static page, make sure “page content” is enabled in the Homepage Layout Manager.
- Navigate to the page you first created in step 1 and edit.
