Home Page Layout Question

Evening Everyone!
I’m loving this theme and I’m experimenting with laying it out the way I want it. But I’m a newbie with this so it’s slow going.

Here’s my question: Would it take a lot of editing to get the homepage of my GeoDirectory to look like the homepage of this theme – http://uouapps.com/portfolio/glocal/bar/?theme=uouapps

I didn’t buy that theme because I feel GeoDirectory is superior to it in every way. But I do like the way the home page is laid out, especially the Browse by Category feature.

Can those of you who know coding very well tell me if you think this will be difficult or fairly easy. If it’ll be difficult I’ll start looking for someone to do it…or I might ditch it and go with the current layout.

Thanks everyone!
Rita Lorraine

Hi Rita,
Very similar things can be achieved by a thoughtful use of the GD widgets, and using a theme with similar styling or adjust the theme you are using.
Once you have organised custom post types, categories and a few listings, you can start playing with the widgets and CSS to get your own look and feel.

Hi Guust, thanks for your fast answer. I’ll keep experimenting with the widgets until I get what I want. 🙂
