 * I’m looking at optimizer 0.1.9.
    I’m trying to make the blocked so I can see 
   them. I have your default information on each. I don’t see anywhere where it 
   shows the blocks on my website. How do you make them visible.

 * Hi Tim,
 * Go to _Optimizer Options -> Frontpage -> Elements Position_ & make sure that 
   _Blocks_ is checked.

 * Hi jrotem
 * Make sure your _**Front page displays**_ is set to **Your latest posts**_ from**
   Dashboard -> Settings -> Reading**_

 * But I am making it a static page, not a blog page. Will the blocks, etc not show
   if it’s static?

 * The blocks can only be visible if you set your frontpage to “Your Latest Posts”
 * You will have to set Change the menu color from Optimizer Options > Color & Font
   > Menu Color

 * Hi,
    I just came across your theme and wondered why did I never find it before.
   Anyhow, I have immidiately shifted to your theme’s lite version.
 * I am planning to make a website to display photos only. So i would not need any“
   block” content. How do I disable blocks?
 * Another question, How can I add albums to the post page such that they display
   in the grid format. When clicked on, they just show up galleries within them 
   in the grid format. And then when clicked on a photo form the gallery, the picture
   pops up in a stunning way.
 * Last question, how can I add categories to the photos and then categorize them
   for searchable purposes. This also means I would need a search bar showing the
   categories option. Do i need a custom code for that? Thanks
 * My website is still on WAMP, so i believe you can not access it to see it

 * Hi abshah
 * 1. You can disable the Blocks from Optimizer Options -> Front page ->Element 
   Position
 * Documentation: [Rearranging or Hiding Front Page Elements](https://www.layerthemes.com/documentation/rearranging-or-hiding-front-page-elements/)
 * 2. To turn off the lightbox go to Optimizer Options -> Miscellaneous -> Media
   Settings -> Lightbox Feature
 * 3. Try using [Jetpack](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/)
