Newspaper Demo Home Page

Hi, I just installed the Newspaper theme and it’s exactly what I needed for my site.

However, I chose and installed a demo but the homepage doesn’t look like the demo at all. It shows just a list of articles as it did initially when I installed Newspaper.

How do I get the home page to look like the demo?

Thank you.

It works on page level though. Do I have to create a dedicated home page? Which is not set just yet.

So after playing around with it, I was able to find out that it works with any category.

However, on the homepage it still shows just a regular blog style list of articles.

The only thing I need to achieve now is that demo look (news magazine) for the home page (all categories).

I’d be thankful for any hints. thank you.

ok, so here is what I’ve found out so far (I can’t seem to edit previous posts):

The demo looks as intended in any category.

The homepage though, is set to “blog” (the breadcrumb shows home/blog). It’s a fresh inststall so no way this has been set manually.

Plus when I address the homepage manually URL/home the layout is broken.

So bottom line: demo layout (newsmagazine) works on category level.

But not on the homepage.

[SOLVED] ok solved, after reading the documentary, that said that the theme will set the site to “blog” by default and I should create a dedicated homepage by hand.

Once getting used to the TD composer it’s pretty easy to click everything together. Great theme.
