Hi – I would like my front home page to look like the design of my category pages i.e. with a grid at the top of the page with large images followed by other articles listed below.

I have looked at the template settings > blog and post template but cannot see an option there. Is this possible please?

PS, aside from this question, I like this theme very much, thank you!

Hi,

Thank you for your appreciation. You can create a page using any of the available elements with the tagDiv composer, and set it as homepage
https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
There are Big grids, Full Big grids and blocks that can be used to display your posts

https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/full-big-grid-1/
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
I see you are not using a static page as homepage at the moment. For example create a page and select the Latest articles page template
https://www.screencast.com/t/DV99YC1k
Place the grid of you choosing at top (like Big grid 1 that is present on your category page)

The module that displays posts in the Latest articles section can be changed as well, in addition a custom name can be set for this section

The result will be a page with a grid on top, and a latest articles section below. Just like you wanted. Using the composer you can create pages in any way you like, it is not hard to use.
Please let us know if you have further questions, or you need help.

Thanks
