When re-creating the Kadence Themes Gutenberg Blocks demo homepage, you need to have the Kadence Blocks – Gutenberg Page Builder Toolkit plugin installed and activated. You can find documentation on that here. 

Step 1: Create a New Page

  • Create a new page and call it “Home” (or whatever you like).

Step 2: Reading Settings

  • Navigate to Settings > Reading and set your front page as a static page, then set your home page as the front page. *Note don’t set your posts page here. You don’t need to when using a Kadence theme.

Step 3: Enable Page Content

  • Navigate to Theme Options > Home Layout and enable Page Content in the Homepage Layout Manager. *Note this setting will look different depending on the theme you’re using.

Step 4: Creating Your Page

  • Navigate to the page you created in the beginning and choose to edit the page using the Gutenberg editor.
  • Add a row layout block and set the number of columns to one. Then set the width to full and the alignment to the middle.

  • Next, upload a background image for the row.

  • On the right sidebar, open the Block tab and then open the Padding/Margin tab. Add 100px padding to the top and bottom of your row.

  • Click the plus sign (add block) to add an Advanced Heading block and a Paragraph block to your row (this will set the title and tagline as seen below).

  • Next, add a Spacer/Divider block and add 86px of padding. Then add a Pullquote Block. Then another Spacer/Divider block with the same amount of padding.

  • Add another Row Layout Block with two columns. In the first column add an Image block, then in the second add two Heading blocks, a Paragraph block, and an Advanced Button block.

  • Repeat this process for the next row, only reverse the order of blocks.

  • Next, create a new row and add a Spacer/Divider block and set the height to 86 under Spacer Settings.

  • Add a Row Layout block with three columns. In each column add an Image block, a Heading block, a Paragraph block, and an Advanced Button block.

  • As done previously, create a new row and add a Spacer/Divider block and set the height to 86 under Spacer Settings.

  • Lastly, create a Row Layout block with one column and set the layout to full width.
  • In the Block Options on the right column add 100px top and bottom padding and set a background image for your block.

  • Add two paragraph blocks and an advanced button block to your row.

Step 5: Creating a Footer

  • From Theme Options > Footer, choose a layout then add a social links widget from Appearance > Widgets. *Note footer layout options will vary per theme.
