Coral posts with thumbnail widget
This wordpress theme contain a special widget that can display posts with thumbnails of the featured images in two different layouts:
Setting up the extra widget areas for the front page
In the “Appearance /Customize/Static front page” set up a static front page and a blog page. Then in the Pages menu edit your front page, and there on the right you have the options to set the page template (Page attributes/Template), where you can choose the layout of the page (e.g. Extra widget areas, 3 columns, content middle).
Now that you have set up a page with extra widget areas, you can go to the Appearance/Widgets to edit widgets. The special widget of this theme is the Coral posts with thumbnails. You can also edit text widgets easily if you install the “Black studio tinymce widget” plugin.
Image widget with dark or light caption
Install two plugins: Black Studio TinyMCE plugin, and Widget CSS classes plugin. Edit a widget with the Visual Editor of the Black Studio TinyMCE plugin, and when you insert an image add a caption to it. Select the image, create a link, then select the caption, create a similar link. Then add the image-light or image-dark class to the widget.
