    Please have a look at attached image showing a screenshot of all my pages. The theme I'm using is soledad-classic. 

    I don't see the homepage? and Can I delete all those pages and just keep the contact page?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Yeah, if you don't need it, you can remove it.

    Also, I think you should check documentation for this theme here first to know how to config this theme. It's short and easy to understand.

    Hello, thank you for your answers, but maybe this question wasnt clear. 

    I have configured the theme but I cant find the home page listed from wp dashboard under pages.

    I'm a little confused with this theme although its simple, which one is home page?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    We've said about that in the documentation for this theme. I think you should check it first

    This theme has 2 ways to config the homepage: one is by Customizer and one is by Visual Composer.

    Please check more on the documentation for this theme like I said.

    Yes. The video is very helpful and clear. Also, the customizer is very useful and makes editing the theme very easy.

    My question is still not answered. I re-phrase my question so you can guide me better.

    Please open attached image, showing all my pages from my wp dashboard you will notice the contact page which i used but,  I don't see the (front page) listed on all pages, with all sites I have a front page i can open and add to it various yoast seo options like keyword, etc.

    Knowing my front page and my contact page will allow me to safely delete all the other pages which i dont need.

    I cant find the front page please advise.

    Also to do changes to the front page like add text at the top do I need to purchase visual composer or the theme provides the plugin. Thanks.

    Hi,

    1/ Because on our demos, we don't use front-page - we've using Customizer to config all the homepage on our demos. So, when you import it to your site, you will don't see the front-page.

    But, you don't need to make a front-page to set keywords, descriptions.... Because you can check options for it via admin page > Settings > General

    If you still want to make a front-page, you can check this video tutorial to know how to config your homepage by use Visual Composer. Please config it for yourself because as I said above we don't provide any front-page.

    2/ For visual composer, it's included in the download package of this theme. Please check more about that here

    just so I understand customizer is to customize the home page.

    So what page does customizer custom?

    general setting does not provide same as yoast 5 keywords.

    If I need to have 5 keywords and yoast seo to work then it means I need front page.

    Do I need to make a front page from scratch using visual composer to achieve whats shown on the demo?

    if this is the case then I will need to design a site from scratch I hope there is a easier solution?

    please advise

    I will look at the video and see if I can manage.

    This theme is been on the market for a while now are you not planning to add such important feature like a nice blockquote. Are you planning to add something or are we at a stage of milking the cow till its dead.

    Please have a look at what others are offering in this market they have like 8 different backquote with each one customizable and original design, and different. I dont want to sound like I had enough but i want to know is there any more surprises when I reach adsense. 

    Please help me god.

    Hi,

    Yeah, we're improve this theme day by day. This theme focus on personal blog/magazine, so of course it doesn't has some features like other theme focus on news Anyway, I will tell with our developers about that and we will consider to add more this feature in the future updates soon.

    No the others who I'm comparing with are a blog theme too. But it happens I don t like the developer and didnt want to give him my money even thou i purchased at $19 the theme. I preferred to pay $59 for an superior theme like yours :) and decided to come here.

    Now I'm here hoping for the best. But just to let you know what's happening in this market there are developers offering way way more than what you are happy with here. 

    Those who don't adapt to market changes  just watch things go by.

    Ok. I done the front page and it was easier than I thought. Your video tutorial is very helpful.

    Please advise which is better option 1 or 2 and why.

    1- Front page using visual composer plus my other category pages using customizer.

    or

    2- Front page using VC and other category pages also to be done using VC.

    Is there any advantages from using either option in terms of speed, optimization, Ad placement and management.

    if there is anything else you can recommend. 

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    You should use option 1/ because all other category pages just listing all your latest posts on each category. And when you use Customizer for category pages, your site speed will better more with VC.

    For ads spaces, this theme supports you can add ads to below & above posts list on category page. You can check options for it via Customize > General Options > "Google Adsense Code to Display Above Posts Layout for Archive Pages" & "Google Adsense Code to Display Below Posts Layout for Archive Pages"
