  Hi Amanda,

  Portfolio shows the most recent three posts marked as ‘portfolio’ items on the front page. To remove those posts, you can either edit those posts and unmark them as portfolio items, or you can add three additional portfolio items to replace them.

  You can read more about how your theme works here:

  Hi Amanda – I’m not sure what you mean exactly. You can change the front page template from Homepage, if you don’t want it to have the slider with three thumbnails below format. Or since you have Custom Design, you can hide the thumbnails with the following CSS in your CSS editor (Appearance->Customize->CSS):

  .page-template-homepage-php section.recent-portfolio-items {
  display: none;
  }

  Does that help?

  Thank you the CSS to remove the 3 thumbnails is just what I needed.

  Is there a code to alter the dimensions of the home page slider? It’s wide enough, but the 450 height has always been a problem for my feature images. Ideally I could do with 600.

  Thanks again
  Amanda

  Hi Amanda,

  Hmm I’m not sure, I’d ask the experts in the CSS forum about that:
