    Hi all, I have purchased a WordPress theme and and wanting to customize the home page – I am largely familiar with HTML, CSS and some PHP but this is my first play with a WP theme.

    Specifically, I need to know if and how I can go about accessing and customizing the code that controls designed sections of the home page, such as Home Section A, B, C etc.

    For example, if there are 3 cols in Section A, I would love to be able to access the code of this section and tweak it to, say, 4 columns – but at the moment my home page design is limited to what the original coder has provided in the theme’s control panel.

    Any and all help would be HUUUGELY appreciated!

    Thanks in advance guys =)

    Hi:

    If you want to modify the actual underlying page code and not just the options provided in the Theme’s control panel you need to go to the Appearance > Editor. This will allow you to change the actual php files that render the pages.

    Before modifying any files please make sure to make a copy of your theme in case you need to revert any changes you make.
