 * Hey,
 * I recently returned to using WP and am starting from scratch.
    I have no idea
   how to use it properly. Currently, I have a MH Squared Lite theme on my website,
   but I don’t know how to edit it (it’s activated)
 * [https://gyazo.com/ea7c50025ad153e3341991b112f5708a](https://gyazo.com/ea7c50025ad153e3341991b112f5708a)
 * ^ This is what it said.

 * ^ This is what I got.
 * I have no idea how to make it the way the picture said it would be.
    For example:
   I want a low opacity bar displaying my logo (just like in the first picture) 
   and columns like the website showed. But all I got was 10 copies of one example
   text and that’s it.
 * Now I’m sure this is a great theme with lots of posibilities. But I am dumbfounded
   right now and can’t manage to explore those at all right now.
 * Any help would be incredibly appreciated!
    (do note: I am new to this, no coding
   lingo please)

 * **Do you have an import file which sets the theme up like in the preview?**

 * Hi Revelon,
 * thanks for using MH Squared _lite_.
 * Please have a look at the [theme documentation](http://www.mhthemes.com/support/documentation-mh-squared/)
   where you can follow the necessary steps to configure the theme properly.
 * Have a nice sunday.

 * Hi author,
 * I did have a look at the documentation and have it set up.
    But I feel like the
   widgets aren’t connecting to the actual spots given to them.
 * Example:
 * [https://gyazo.com/e0c3d8e7b4616a8bc1cb1ba692f15e13](https://gyazo.com/e0c3d8e7b4616a8bc1cb1ba692f15e13)
 * The search widget is just a normal text block (like all of them)
    How do I make
   this, an actual search widget?

 * Ps: My search widget is as big as a post, how can I adjust sizes of the individual
   widgets? Like in the template.

 * What is shown on your screenshot isn’t a search widget, it seems to be a widget
   that comes with the theme and you’ve just added _“Search Widget”_ as title for
   the widget.
 * That won’t work out of course because the widget you are using doesn’t have anything
   to do with the search widget that comes by default with any WordPress installation.
   So if you want to use a search widget, you’ll need to place the **search widget**
   in your sidebar and not a different widget.
 * If you are still new to WordPress, we highly recommend some basic WordPress tutorials,
   because for a smooth experience it probably would be better if you get an overview
   of basic WordPress knowledge before starting to configure your website. For example
   if you want to learn more about placing widgets in WordPress, this might be helpful:

 * ”I recently returned to using WP and am starting from scratch.
    I have no idea
   how to use it properly.”
 * so ”ofc” doesn’t add up, I am trying to configure it by myself. And it’s working
   alright. But there are some things I won’t know.
    I’ll look into it. But nowhere
   on your documentation was any of this stated however. So I thought if I follow
   the steps (which I did) I’ll be fine, which didn’t turn out to be the case.
 * But that’s fine, I’ll look into it!

 * Please keep in mind that the theme documentation is about the theme only and **
   not** about WordPress itself. If you want to learn how to use WordPress, you 
   can find a lot of tutorials online – also in our [support center](http://www.mhthemes.com/support/)–
   or check the WordPress Codex as there is a lot of helpful information in there
   as well: [https://codex.wordpress.org/](https://codex.wordpress.org/)

 * Yes you’re right, it looks like a great theme! Thanks for the help you’ve given
   me.
