Post Banners Area

This page covers all of the available options relating to the post banners area. This is typically displayed on the homepage but can also be added to any page.

Heads Up! The customizer settings for this area will only take effect if no static page has been set as the homepage. If a static page has been set, you'll find these settings at the bottom of the page edit screen instead.

  • Section Heading Text* - Enter the optional text to display as the header for this section. Only plain text is allowed here.
