02 Basics

  1. Blog title/description + logo settings
  2. Menu configuration
  3. Social icons

03 Widgets

Avoid removing any of the widgets; if you want to hide a widget, go to Layout > open it > uncheck Show [widget-type] (Image, HTML/JavaScript, etc). I have edited the HTML of some of the widgets to make them look a certain way, so removing and adding them again will undo the changes and they wont look as they do in the demo.
