Basically you should decide what type of Categories you would want on your site and then create your Blog Posts for those specific Categories. <\/p>\n<p>For instance, let&#8217;s say you have a Lifestyle Blog and wanted to have various categories like Work, Life, Travel, Family, Shopping, Eating etc. You would create those categories and add your posts. <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to Appearance &gt; Widgets<\/li>\n<li>On the left hand side you will find the Evo Pro Categories Widget<\/li>\n<li>Choose which widget area you want to display the Featured Category<\/li>\n<li>Give the section a title<\/li>\n<li>Choose the Evo Image Size<\/li>\n<li>Decide how many articles you want displayed<\/li>\n<li>Choose the Category you want displayed<\/li>\n<li>Check the Split into Columns Box for a Grid Layout. Supports up to 6 columns<\/li>\n<li>Choose how many Columns<\/li>\n<li>Then Save and check out your new Featured Categories area.<\/li>\n<li>Note: you can have more than one Category featured on a page. Just repeat the process and add another Widget. <\/li>\n<li>Note: Articles should only be in one Category. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 id=\"two-sidebars\">Sidebars<\/h3>\n<p>You have two sidebar options Left and Right and these are for the page or blog sidebars. They are also in the widgets area and you can follow the steps above.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"the-customizer\">The Customizer<\/h3>\n<p>We have built in support for the theme customizer. There you can choose different colors for your background, header, footer, links etc. It gives you a lot of ways to change the look of your site so you can make it look different. <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to Appearance &gt; Customize<\/li>\n<li>You can change the Site Title there<\/li>\n<li>Upload your Logo<\/li>\n<li>Change Colors<\/li>\n<li>Change your text for the Latest from the Blog or Connect with us section<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Hopefully the documentation was helpful.
