Ink Drop: Setup Your Homepage

The homepage in your theme uses a standard, dynamically generated layout that is based on the layout you choose in Theme Options. This has advantages over using a static page in that you have one less page to manage, and your homepage is more easily crawled by search engines.

  1. Start by clicking on SettingsReading
  2. Ensure Latest Posts is selected. This allows WordPress to use the dynamic homepage.
  3. Save any changes, then return to Theme OptionsGeneral
  4. Click the Site Layout tab
  5. Select a Home Page Layout by clicking on one of the layout thumbnails. Each is explained below.
