Adding text paragraph to home page

[Kat Camplin]

Hi Bill,

I’d like to add a paragraph or so of text to the front page, either above or below the featured photo row. Is there an easy way to do that?

Thanks!

Kat,

Great question. You could add a bit of text right above or below the featured row. Here’s how:

1. Go to the Appearance section and select Edit.
2. From the list of files on your right, choose home.php. If you’d like it to go above the featured row, then find place the code above this line:

   
   <?php if(of_get_option('home_features') == 'yes') { ?>
   

   If you’d like it to go below the featured row, then place the code above this one:

   
   <?php if ( is_active_sidebar( 'home' ) ) { ?>
   

3. Here’s the code to insert:

4. Just replace the Your introductory text goes here. with the paragraph you’d like to have there.
5. Save your changes.

That should do it. If you have any questions or trouble, let me know.

Enjoy your weekend,
Bill
