Homepage theme blocks #back to top

In this theme you can build your homepage using homepage theme blocks that you can drag and drop to your homepage with any order and you can have multiple copies of same theme blocks with different settings. Blog listing with optional sidebar is a theme homepage block too and you may not add it to your homepage if you don't need to do this.

Theme Blocks Manager

You need to use theme Blocks manager in Customizer to add blocks to your homepage.
Go to Appearance > Theme Settings > Home: Blocks Manager.

Here you can manage your homepage layout settings - add and order blocks. When you add new block you can configure its options depending on block type (displayed in [ ] brackets near block name). You need to ignore options that does not related to block that you want to add.

For example If you want to add [POSTS] Posts Line block you need to configure only options in POSTS block settings section. Ignore other sections with options, because it does not related to your block.

Blocks with [MISC] category can be configured independently in its own sections in Appearance > Theme Settings.

IMPORTANT: If you don't have have enough posts to display in block (for example you added Masonry posts block that have predefined 5 posts limit, selected Editor's picks posts to display in, but you have only 3 posts marked as Editor's picks) this block will not be displayed on site. If you added some blocks with posts but don't see it on your site make sure you have enough posts for this block posts limit in posts category that you selected for this block and in posts types you selected for this block.

Common Blocks settings:

All homepage blocks have common settings that you can use for any block:

  • Block title (optional) - displayed before block content. Leave it empty to show just block content.
  • Hide block on blog pagination - if you add BLOG block to your homepage you can use this option to hide some of your blocks when user visit 2nd and other Blog pages for navigation between your posts pages in Blog. This is useful if you have a lot of theme blocks above your Blog block on homepage - user will not be need to scroll all this blocks to see next block page posts.

Next you can read about all available theme blocks and settings that this blocks support. Ignore settings that don't supported by this blocks - this settings values will not be applied.

Header Blog Slider

This homepage block located in site header (between top and main menu), you does not need to add it from Homepage Blocks Manager. You can show this block only on homepage or all site pages. You can select posts to be displayed in this slider in its settings.

Header Blog Slider settings can be configured in separate theme settings section: Appearance > Theme settings > Home: Header blog slider

Header Top Line

This homepage block located in site header (above top menu or header), you does not need to add it from Homepage Blocks Manager. This block displayed on all pages, you can add text, button and custom gradient background to this block.

Header Top Line settings can be configured in header theme settings section: Appearance > Theme settings > Header.

[MISC] Blog Listing

This homepage block used to show your entire blog listing (like on regular Blog page). It support pagination and use optional Blog sidebar (left or right) for your widgets. If you want to have simple blog you can use just this single block on your homepage to have just Blog listing.

Important Note: When you just installed theme (and does not imported demo data) you will have this block added to homepage by default with default settings. When you add any other homepage blocks to your homepage this sample block will be removed and you will need to add it yourself with your own settings from Theme Blocks Manager to desired position on your homepage.

Performance and speed#back to top

Our theme created for very fast and effective work, with correct server configuration and content optimization you can get 100 / 100 score in Google PageSpeed Insights test and A grade in GTMetrix tests.

Site speed depends on multiple factors and theme itself is just one of this (theme already coded for extra fast work), like WordPress configuration, Server configuration and quality and Content optimization. We included simple guide how to optimize your website for extra fast work with our theme.

Important steps to optimize your website:

  1. Make sure that you have good hosting/server (we recommend to use Bluehost to host WordPress themes). You will never get good score on cheap shared hosting. If you see in Google Page speed warnings about large "Service response time" - this means your hosting performance is very bad and hosting have slow connection speed.
  2. Install W3TotalCache plugin and correctly configure it (enable all caches and configure it correctly).
  3. Prepare your post images (resize and compress) before you upload it to WordPress (use images like 1200x800px JPG with 80% quality. Never upload original images from your camera in high resolutions like 4000x3000px).
  4. After you resized your images compress it with lossless images compression utilities - . Only after this you can upload your images to WordPress. You can use this software: ImageOptim (MacOS) or Caesium (Windows). You need to properly configure this software (not just process images with default settings) for good results.
  5. Use less third party widgets and elements that connects to external services (Facebook widgets, Instagram widgets, etc).
  6. Enable browser caching and cache expiration dates on server for static files (you can ask hosting support how to do this on your server).
  7. Disable all third-party plugins that you does not use to speed-up your website if your hosting is not very fast.
  8. Use third party services that optimize your server response time and cache, like CloudFlare.
  9. Check this official WordPress Optimization guide article and external article links in it.
