The theme covers multiple widget blocks for homepage : Home Top (Left/Right), Home Middle (Left/Right), Home Flexible and Home Bottom. These widget areas could be used to share featured posts, banners, services, slideshow, contacts, featured categories and many other stuff.
You will be free to place any desired blog categories, selected pages, custom links and other widgets as required. What we really liked about this theme is the easy to manage homepage widget area. Just drag and drop multiple widgets in each section to highlight desired contents from any corner of your website. We all know that, homepage should connect to each main page, categories and important stuff that needs visitor’s attention.
