Hello Support.
I am trying to re-create the 4 boxes on the homepage with the picture and text via HTML on a “regular page”. I do not the default homepage that comes with the theme. I want to use a “regular page” for my homepage, that will have various other content including the 4 boxes.
I am having a hard time figuring out the HTML-code that will allow me to have these 4 boxes on my homepage so that I can then change the Title, Description, image, etc, manually of these individual 4 boxes. They need not “pull” this information from anywhere as I will be adding all of that manually.
Do you have the HTML-code for these 4 boxes so that I can edit it from within a “regular homepage”…??
Thanx in advance.

Then in “Select Content Type”, you can select “Image Content” and then add in image, title, content and link optional in “Appearance => Featured Content => Featured Image Content Options”.
Note: you can also select page or post or category in Select Content Type. For more, check out theme instructions page at http://catchthemes.com/theme-instructions/catch-kathmandu-pro/
April 16, 2015 at 11:55 am #55916Driven13MemberHi Sakin.
Thanx for the response but I think I am not explaining my needs well.
If I use the “Featured Content Options” through the control panel then I cannot add all the other content to the homepage that I want.
So I am choosing a separate “regular page” and making it my homepage via Settings > Reading > Homepage
So on this “regular page” Homepage I want the nice 4 boxes to show up. So I was wondering if you have the HTML-code for the 4 boxes that I can add to my homepage WITHOUT having to go through the control panel (“Appearance => Featured Content => Featured Image Content Options”).
All I need is the structure and CSS and I can MANUALLY add the picture, headline, description, etc.
Please let me know if I am not being clear still.
Thanx in advance.

April 16, 2015 at 12:04 pm #55917SakinKeymaster@Driven13: Hum, That featured image content is manual only. Ok for detail codes, you can open catchkathmandu-functions.php file and copy the code from function
catchkathmandu_homepage_featured_content()
. For CSS, open style.css and find the code in /* =Featured PostsApril 16, 2015 at 12:12 pm #55934Driven13MemberThanx Sakin. That is very useful and what I was indeed looking for.
Any idea why the code below is putting the two boxes in two rows each, when it should be all in one row…????
I copied it from the Source Code of the homepage and then pasted it into a regular page. Other text below it is showing up fine full width and no margin. But these 4 boxes are showing up in two rows instead of one.

April 16, 2015 at 12:56 pm #55942Driven13MemberHi.
Unfortunately, it is on localhost so I cannot send you link yet.
But the code above is EXACTLY what I copied from the source code of the homepage and pasted into this new page. You will notice that the code is between the
