Add this in your custom CSS panel:

#customizr-slider.carousel .item {
height: 224px;
min-height: 224px;
line-height: 224px;
}

You need to put different questions in different threads, especially if they’re not related, so others could benefit from the answers.
From what I understand, you’d like additional buttons for sub-pages of your featured pages displayed on homepage.

That requires serious coding and it is beyond the scope of this forum. We’re here to guide you with the existing features of the theme.

Link, please?

That code cannot affect your homepage, Sudeep. It only affects Category name and description when you view posts in a certain category. That “>” is probably inside the contents of the page you selected as your home page. Edit that page and you will probably find the “>” at the start.

Put your content inside $after_slider variable (line 3) and add this function in your child themes’ functions.php:

add_filter('tc_slider_display', 'content_after_slider');
function content_after_slider($html) {
$after_slider = ''; //Put your HTML inside this var
return $html.$after_slider;
}

Please note that the content above will always be placed after any slider in your website. You could use a conditional that decides how to populate $after_slider depending on what page you are or…

…alternatively, if you want to hook your content to the display of featured pages, use this function:

add_filter('tc_fp_block_display', 'content_before_fp');
function content_before_fp($html) {
$before_fp = ''; //Put your HTML inside this var
return $before_fp.$html;
}

@josiah: He needs to create a home.php template file, not index.php.

@josiah, please try to provide useful and complete answers. You usually reply to questions with other questions and when you do answer it’s either too general or too vague to provide real assistance. It’s great that you want to help, but make sure you do help.

@slpearman: you have two ways of going about this:
1. Register a new footer menu, that’s different from the main menu. You will need to use get_registered_nav_menus to get the list of registered menus for the theme, add a footer menu to the array, and re-register the theme menus with footer menu included, using register nav menus. After registering, you will need to add code for displaying your registered menu by either filtering the output of tc_widgets_footer or tc_colophon_display, depending on where you want to display it. Besides, you’ll need to style it up. Registering a custom menu for a theme is no easy task.
2. If you only want to add the main menu in the footer, you can use a menu widget from this list and add it in any of the widget areas of the footer.

As I was writing this I realized there’s a third, simpler method: You can create and save a new menu from your Menus, in Admin. You can than select that menu to display in a footer widget using one of the widgets in the list above (2.).
