Indigo — Featured Categories on the Homepage

This article refers to Indigo

The magazine sections on the demo homepage — Style, Outdoor, Motorcycles — are Featured Category widgets. Each one shows the latest posts from a category you pick, and you can stack as many as you like.

Featured Category sections on the homepage
  1. Go to Appearance → Widgets.
  2. Find the Homepage: Featured Categories (Below Recent Posts) widget area.
  3. Add a Featured Category widget, choose the category and how many posts to show.
  4. Repeat with more widgets — one per category section.

Two widget variants are available:

  • Featured Category — one large post plus a list of smaller ones (the demo’s Style section).
  • Featured Categories (2 columns) — two categories side by side (the demo’s Outdoor + Motorcycles row).

Banners between sections

You can place advertising banners between the category sections: add a Custom HTML widget with your ad code (HTML/AdSense) between the Featured Category widgets in the same widget area.

Combine this with Theme Options → Homepage → Hide Recent Posts on Homepage to build the entire front page from curated category sections — see Setting Up the Homepage.
