    Hi,
    I just didn’t get it and try over and over again;however, there was just NO blocks in the front(home) page like the official demo.
    What should I do? Using CSS?
    Is it not admitted for free user?
    Thx you all

    You don’t need CSS or any paid plans to get those blocks on your front page.

    Go to https://wordpress.com/themes/edin/ and follow the instructions under Front Page Template.

    Go to your site’s Customizer at http://senserblog.wordpress.com/wp-admin/customize.php

    Click on Theme Options on the lower left hand side of the screen.

    Scroll down a bit to find Front Page: Featured Page One, Front Page: Featured Page Two and Front Page: Featured Page Three and select the pages in the dropdown box. These will be shown as blocks on your front page.

    Give it a try and let me know how it goes.

    I don’t have Theme Options on the lower left hand side of the screen.

    Re. Edin – I’ve set this theme up three times with new urls trying to configure the home page. I’ve done all the steps here & still do not have the featured home page layout. I’ve configured ‘grid’ right from the first set up activating the theme. Set each of the 3 intended feature pages as ‘grid’; set up the theme options ‘Front Page Featured Page One / Two / Three’ to the Pages I want as noted above in Customize & NADA.

    bummer that I’ve spent three days trying to figure out what should have had clear walk-through directions.

    To be fair to those looking at this theme, change the featured home page so that you can see what you’re actually going to get.

    siobhanoflynnphd – I’d be glad to look at this. Could you please provide a link to your current site so I can have a look directly and point you in the right direction?

    The step-by-step setup guide for Edin is here but I’ll be glad to have a look at your site and help you finish the setup.
