I’m new to Catch Themes. Referencing demo at https://catchthemes.com/demo/catch-base/; how do I customize this section with either a photo or a 2 colume section on something special. In other words where is the customization for this section found?

And for another possibly dumb question, which page is considered the home page? Is that a page I can edit? Or is the Appearance | Customization really the home page?

Thank you.

@novaglenn: Which section do you mean referencing the demo? Please clarify.
Well for the homepage, you can use any static page or the the blog page (set by default). Static page has been used in Demo.
Go to Dashboard=> Appearance=> Customize=> Static Front Page and choose the options as desired.

And for the second part of my question … where is the home page. I’ve only found two kinds — posts and pages. When you refer to blog page, do you refer to post? And, assuming so, I’ve checked every post, and none of them has current home page. So, repeating my question, where is the home page predefined by the theme? I realize I can reassign, but first need to start with the one created by theme.

Okay, I found what you said about appointing a page as the home page. I created a new page called “home” and then pointed to that page. It works. Not that it matters anymore, but before doing that where was this page located?

@novaglenn: Before assigning the static page, blog list is shown by default. Static page is to be chosen by the user himself/herself.
And the section you have referenced is the content of the static page. This will only show up in the home page if you have assigned the static front page.
