Set up the homepage

Turn on the homepage sections and fill them in from the Customizer.

Use a static homepage

The homepage sections appear when your homepage is a page rather than your latest posts.

  1. Create a page called Home (it can be empty).
  2. Go to Settings › Reading.
  3. Choose A static page and pick Home as the homepage.

Anything you write in the Home page itself appears in the middle of the sections.

Edit the sections

Go to Appearance › Customize › Front page sections. Each section can be switched on or off:

  • Hero: background image, title, text and two buttons
  • Features: three short selling points with icons
  • Destinations and Tours: featured items first, then the most recent
  • Testimonials: up to three reviews (unlimited with Pro)
  • Latest posts from your blog
  • Call to action: a closing message with a button

Other Customizer settings

  • Site Identity: logo, site title and icon
  • Colors: primary and accent color
  • Header button: the button at the end of the menu; leave the link empty to hide it
  • Contact details: phone, email, address and opening hours, shown in the footer and next to tours
  • Footer: about text and copyright

Set up your menus in Appearance › Menus. Travelight has a primary menu, a footer menu and a social links menu; social links get the right icon automatically.
