  • Title - replace "Briar Rose Hawthorne" with your own title
  • Text - add your text to the "Caption" field
  • Image - check "Upload image from computer" below Select image by: and upload an image

Social Icons

Go to Layout > scroll down to "Sidebar Column" > open the "Social Icons" widget. Replace LINK with the links to your social media accounts. Add https:// otherwise the links will be broken.

<form action="/search" class="search-form" method="get">
<input class="search-input" name="q" placeholder="Type here..." type='text' value=""/>
<input class="search-submit" type="submit" value="Search"/>
</form>
