Getting started

Once you purchase and install the theme, you can customize the colors and layout!

Since this theme offers a relatively wide range of theme options to explore, I personally believe it would be helpful to provide you with a list of customization guides below.

• How to add a custom link to this theme?
• How do I change the blog layout?
• What is theSidebar Additional Section in the theme options?
• How do I enable the latest post and/or featured post?
• How to change the icon on the primary and/or secondary buttons?
• How to add the featured tags on the sidebar additional section?

How to customize the colors

Please play around with the settings below for the live preview:

How to add a custom link to this theme?

You can add as many custom links as you want through Tumblr pages (click here for more information), and the process is very simple, here’s how:

• Go to Customize page
• Scroll down until you find ‘+Add a page’
• Enable ‘Show a link to this page’
• Select“Link” from the dropdown menu (for custom links) and if you want to make a custom page (for example, an ‘about’ page), just don’t change anything from the dropdown menu and leave the ‘Standard layout’
• Add the URL, page title, and page body text as you wish and save

How to change the blog layout?

It’s very simple. Under the“Blog Layout” option, change the dropdown to select the layout you prefer. The options are:

• Normal: This displays a single-column layout with the sidebar on the left. You can change theSidebar Position to the right under the theme options as well.
• Masonry: This presents a grid layout to showcase your posts on 2 or 3 columns.

What is theSidebar Additional Section in the theme options?

This section allows you to display social media links, featured tags, latest posts, and featured posts. Before enabling any of the features I mentioned, you must first enable theSidebar Additional Section.

By default, it’s set tohidden, so you’ll need to change the dropdown option toShow.

How to enable the latest post and/or featured post?

Before enabling this feature, since they are included under the Sidebar Additional Section, you need to first enable the option toShow

The latest post and feature post are generated from tagged posts. Here are the instructions for each feature:

Latest post

• On the customize page, enable it by scrolling to the theme options until you find theSidebar Latest Post dropdown. Change it fromHide toShow.
• Once done, tag your favorite posts as#text, and they will automatically appear in the section.
• It might take a moment for the posts to show up. If you don’t see any, try hard refreshing and clearing your browser cache.
• You’re all set!

Featured post

• Similar to the previous step, on the customize page, enable it by scrolling to the theme options until you find theSidebar Featured Post dropdown. Change it fromHide toShow.
• Once done, tag your favorite posts as#featured, and they will automatically appear in the section.
• It might take a moment for the posts to show up. If you don’t see any, try hard refreshing and clearing your browser cache.
• You’re all set!

How to change the icon on the primary and/or secondary button?

The icon comes fromhttps://icons8.com/line-awesome.

You can replace the icon HTML tag with your own. Browse the icon you’d like to implement. The icon’s HTML tag should always start with<i> and end with</i>. You can insert it before or after the button label.
