I did this by:
1) COPYING the home.php file to my child-them folder.
2) opening the page in a text editor. I replaced the “Recent Posts” text with what I wanted.
3) I created a div for text below that in the new home.php and add styling for it in my child css file.
Here’s what that code looks like:
get_header(); ?>
<div id=”primary-home” class=”content-area”>
<div id=”headwrapper”><h2 id=”page-title”><?php _e(“happening at the studio”, ‘sixteen’) ?></h2></div><div>
<div id=”homewrapper”>Spirit Studio is a performance, art exhibition and meeting space for the Silver Lake community. Click on the images below
for more information about upcoming events. To see a full calendar of events, click on the “event calendar” link above.</div>
<main id=”main” class=”site-main” role=”main”>
And here’s a link to the live site: spiritstudio.org
There may be better ways of doing this. But you DO NOT want to edit the original home.php file. I likewise updated the footer.php file to say what I want using the same method.
