    Hi ! Many thanks for this beautiful theme. Very happy to find it 🙂

    I would like to create a static homepage based on your own homepage to meet my needs. But after creating a homepage.php file, I cannot manage to call the last 10 articles (except the first two always integrate in the slider).

    Besides, I’d like to add three links+image corresponding to my 3 sections on top of the footer. But I don’t know where to put it in the code (between the footer and the rightbar).

    To end, I would like to put the social buttons and the related posts we can see in the articles of your demo.

    Many thanks,
    Best regards,

    HI, I’m fine thank you. Hope you are too.
    Yes I was but I changed my mind.

    I keep the last articles page as homepage, desactivate the right bar and add my own code in the template to have my own elements. I would prefer to create a static homepage but impossible to get the articles loop (as shown in the https://colorlib.com/activello/ homepage).

    Besides,
    – I would like to hide from the homepage the articles shown in the slider. Is that possible ?
    – I’d like to have the share this & related saw in this page https://colorlib.com/activello/template-featured-image-vertical/

    Kind regards

    I am not sure what you meant by “the last articles page as homepage” so please make it a bit clear.

    Also share some screenshots and your site URL where you have made these changes so that i can better understand it and help you.

    I would like to hide from the homepage the articles shown in the slider. Is that possible ?

    You can try achieving this by using the following custom code as described here https://colorlib.com/wp/forums/topic/suppress-slider-on-posts-page/#post-24989

    function exclude_category( $query ) {
	if( ! is_category() && get_theme_mod('activello_featured_hide') == 1 ){
		$slidecat = get_theme_mod( 'activello_featured_cat' );

	    if (  $query->is_main_query() ) {
	        $query->set( 'cat', '-'.$slidecat );
	    }
	}
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'exclude_category' );

    Many thanks for the code, it works perfectly!

    For the rest, I woukd like to create my own homepage. When I put this code in my homepage, thé page is empty: 

    <div id="primary" class="content-area">
                <?php $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; ?>

		<main id="main" class="site-main <?php echo "page-".$paged;?>" role="main">

		<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>

			<div class="article-container">

			<?php /* Start the Loop */ ?>
			<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

				<?php get_template_part( 'content', '' ); ?>

			<?php endwhile; ?>

			</div>

			<?php activello_paging_nav(); ?>

		<?php else : ?>

			<?php get_template_part( 'content', 'none' ); ?>

		<?php endif; ?>
		</main><!-- #main -->
	</div><!-- #primary -->

    I juste see the header, parts I’ve added and rhe slider.

    Hope it is clear now 🙂
