Child Education is a bright, Bootstrap-based theme for nurseries, kindergartens and children’s education websites. Out of the box it behaves like a standard blog. The designed homepage is a page template, so it only appears once you create a page and assign it — this is the step most people miss.
1. Set up the homepage
- Go to Pages → Add New and give the page a title (for example Home). Leave the content empty — the template supplies the layout.
- In the Page Attributes box, set Template to Full Width.
- Publish the page.
- Go to Settings → Reading, choose A static page, and set Homepage to the page you just created.
The template file is page-full-width.php if you ever need to find it.
2. Create a page for your posts
Still under Settings → Reading, set Posts page to a second empty page (for example Blog). Without this, your posts have nowhere to live once the homepage is static.
3. Fill in the homepage sections
Everything on the homepage is driven from Appearance → Customize. See Customizer Options for the full reference.
The homepage banner has 4 slider slots. Empty slots are skipped, so you can use as few as one.
4. Set your menu
Go to Appearance → Menus, create a menu, and assign it to a location:
- Top Menu — the
primarylocation.
5. Add widgets
Under Appearance → Widgets you will find these areas:
- Sidebar
- Footer 1
- Footer 2
- Footer 3
- Footer 4
A note on demo content
Child Education does not bundle a one-click demo importer. The homepage is assembled from Customizer settings and your own posts and images, so there is no demo database to import — fill in the sections and it takes shape as you go.
