How to add the Essential Grid by Theme Punch to my Homepage

Hi!

This is a THEME / PLUGIN SUPPORT / BEGINNER question not listed in the drop down menus :slight_smile:

I’m using a free template by bavotasan.com called Arcade. I would like the layout of my homepage to be a grid I created with the Essential Grid plugin by Theme Punch. I have no idea how to go about this! All I can do is change the homepage from ‘Your Latest Posts’ to ‘A Static Page’. I’ve granted support access and you will see the Essential Grid I already built, ready to go! [ess_grid alias=”HomePage”]

Thanks for your help!

    Hello Heather,

    From the Essential grid you get shortcode:

    [ess_grid alias="HomePage"]

    and this shortcode you need to put inside the content of the Home Page. So you open the Home Page in your Dashboard, and in editor (text view) insert shortcode and update page.

    Grid will show on the Home Page of your site.

    Kind regards,

    Kasia
