Copying aspects of theme

Hi all,

I am creating an online magazine via the Viral News v1.3.2 theme.

Basically, I have my homepage all set up. Along with my main homepage I’m in the process of setting up an interactive page within the website. On this page, alongside the interactive features, such as polls, I wanted to include only the Carousel Module to display previous polls and other interactive material for the users to access.

I have two questions regarding this (I’m new to coding so my questions may be a little daft):

– How do I locate and copy the relevant code for the Carousel Module to insert into the CSS for my interactive page? (I’m trying to do all the coding in the Additional CSS feature because I really don’t want to be faffing around with child themes – another question, is this a reasonable thing to do or should I be creating a child theme for this issue?)

– Once inserted, I only want to display posts relevant to the interactive page. I understand this can be easily achieved from the homepage where you just tick which categories you want to feature in a module, however I doubt I’d have the same luxury from another page – how can I achieve this in another page?

Any help will be appreciated

Many thanks,
