Domino — Setting Up the Homepage

This article refers to Domino Magazine

Domino’s homepage works with your latest posts (keep Settings → Reading on “Your latest posts”) and is assembled from the slider, widget areas, and the Recent Posts loop.

The Domino homepage

Homepage structure

From top to bottom:

  1. The Breaking News Bar under the main menu.
  2. The Featured Slideshow with the Right of Slider widget area next to it — the demo’s Latest and Our Picks columns live there.
  3. The Below the Slider (full-width) widget area — for a banner or a Carousel Slider widget.
  4. Featured Categories (Homepage) — stack Featured Category widgets here to build magazine sections; add Custom HTML widgets between them for ads.
  5. The Video Area — a full-width dark section for video content.
  6. The Recent Posts section (your latest posts loop) with the Sidebar.

Recent Posts options

In WPZOOM → Theme Options → Homepage → Recent Posts:

Recent Posts options
  • Display Recent Posts on Homepage — turn the section off for a fully widget-built front page.
  • Title for Recent Posts — the section heading.
  • Exclude categories — keep specific categories out of the homepage loop.
  • Hide Featured Posts in Recent Posts? — so slider posts don’t repeat below.

The number of posts comes from Settings → Reading → Blog pages show at most.


Layout and post display

In Theme Options → General → Global Posts Options you can set the homepage Layout (sidebar or full width), the Posts Layout, and what each post shows — featured image, excerpt (with length), category, date, author, comments count, and the Read More button:
