Thank you! that helped – but now in the home page I can see a big block of orange below “Recent blog post” – how do I be rid of this ?
-
You’re welcome! I am not sure where you see it. Here’s how your website looks from my end:

Was wondering about the same – I could see the team section, recent posts and everything when I did a preview – but after save and publish, I dont see it on the blog

Is this what you see? https://kindleandkompass.wordpress.com/home/
It’s not yet set as your Home Page. You can go back to your Customizer. You can use this link to get into that page:
https://wordpress.com/customize/kindleandkompass.wordpress.comThen click on Static Front Page from the left menu.
Select A Static Page. See this screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/i5Hp61T.png
Then set them as follows:
Front Page set to Home
Posts Page set to Blog (if you don’t see Blog, please create a new page and name it Blog. Then go back to this section again to set it to your Posts Page.You can also find more information setting up your front page from this link:

Can you check again now – I think its displaying – but there is a section called BLOG with nothing under it – I am not really sure what I need to do with it
-
I think I have managed to fix most of these – thank you so much for your help!!
I do have another question though – is it possible to customize the background colors – Say I need to change the font colors, background colors etc, is it possible to do so ? I did try changing Colors & Backgrounds but no differences were visible after Save & Publish
-
Yes, the Colors & Backgrounds option in the Customizer may only change the background color of you site, depending on the theme you use.
The best way to customize the colors is to Add CSS. You need an Upgraded WordPress Plan to have that option.
Let me know if you need further assistance.

I did try to change the background with the available options but it wouldnt allow me even to change into any of the current options available. I am currently using the “Mood” theme

Hello @kindleandkompass,
Have you already tried the Palettes button. It looks like this – https://i.imgur.com/Vu8fS6T.png
Then when you click it, you will see different palettes to choose from. It looks like this – https://i.imgur.com/rP3TWeO.png
When you say it wouldn’t allow me – do you mean it’s not responding to the changes you make?
You have limited option to customize the color. Basically, you can only change the background color of the content area, not the fonts, header, etc. You can change other colors through palette – but then it’s limited to the palettes provided by this theme.
If you really want to make a total customization of the colors, you would need an upgraded plan in order to add custom css.
I’m sorry for the late reply. I hope you’re having a great weekend. :)
Let me know if you need further assistance.
Regards,
Rose
