  • Hey,
    1. If this is for the carousel in the home page it’s not possible. Else post a link to where you mean.

    2. ? A link would be helpful here not sure what your referring to? If you mean columns there is a three column option in the premium theme.

    3. Where are these 4 widget boxes? If your referring to the footer? you can leave widgets out of the widget areas and it won’t show.

    Thanks for your reply. I’m not sure if this URL will work (it looks too generic): http://deveta.googleplex.net/.

    -The Carousel is good and I know how to change the dimensions.

    -The next 3 boxes down are what I understood to be “Portfolio” boxes. I will use the outer 2 to each link to a regular page. The left one (with an image in the box) will link to our Image & Video gallery page (am using the Photo Gallery plugin). I want the middle box to have text only and there will be a link to our Lumascope page (under Products). The right box will have the image shown but with more text on it and will link to our Applications page. I want to make the outside 2 boxes smaller so I have more width in the middle box.

    -The next 2 boxes down are for blogs, but again I want to use each as a link to a regular page (OEM, Distributors, and Upcoming Events) and each will have a photo in the box. Can I change from 2 boxes to 3 boxes?

    -The next 2 boxes down are what I call Widget boxes. If I can change the above “Blog” boxes from 2 to 3, I don’t need these. Can I delete them?

    -Finally, we feel there is too much space between the Carousel and the next 3 “Portfolio” boxes. Can we reduce that? This is a general question as to how much we can play with the dimensions. E.g., we would like the footer to be shorter.

    Thanks very much!

    I want to clarify how I named the features. The large images rotating at the top of Home is what I called the Carousel, but I see the theme calls them Sliders.

    The next boxes down that I called Portfolio boxes are likely what you call the Portfolio Carousel.

    The last row of boxes that I called Widgets are called Icons?

    I hope this is helpful. Thanks!

    Hey,
    1. So a portfolio carousel would show portfolio post and like to through portfolio post. They are not just images that you can link to whatever you want. You can use a redirect plugin if your determined to use the portfolio posts as just an image on your home page but to be clear thats not there purpose. And in a carousel you can’t set random widths.

    If you just want three images that link to pages I suggest using your page content and adding through columns. You can even use page builder to customize the column size.

    2. Again posts link to post. You can’t change that. You can use a redirect plugin like this but to be clear this isn’t the purpose of a post: https://wordpress.org/plugins/safe-redirect-manager/

    There is no option in the free theme for three column posts. This is possible in premium but based on what your saying I again suggest you just use the page content and work with pagebuilder to set this up how you want.

    3. The icon boxes can be disabled right in your theme options > home layout manager.

    4. In your theme options > home layout manager. Move “page title” to disabled. That will shrink the space.

    You can adjust your footer with css like this:

    #containerfooter, .footercredits {
        padding: 0;
    }

    Hope that helps.
