Step-by-Step Guide to Using the Template
Customize the Hero Carousel
The grid is the core of this template. You can customize it to include:
- Replace the placeholder images with your own featured article visuals. Select the container with the image and on the right side menu, under the “Background Image” tab reselect the image. We advise ticking the “Responsive Background Image” box option.
- Update the headlines and captions to match your content, double click on the text element or on the highlighted box below.
- Adjust the pods and sections according to your themekit.
Organize Article Sections
- Each section can display articles as cards with images and text previews.
- Link each card to its corresponding full article.
- Rearrange sections by drag-and-drop for better flow.
Configure the CTA Form
- Edit the CTA text (e.g., “Subscribe for Updates”).
- Customize the form fields (name, email, etc.).
- Connect to your CRM or email marketing tool to capture and manage leads.
Test and Publish
Before going live, preview your interactive blog on all viewports to ensure it displays perfectly on all devices. Double-check that every link works, the carousel navigation runs smoothly, and form submissions are being captured correctly. Once everything looks great, your dynamic magazine-style blog is ready to be shared with the world!
