    My site is using the default homepage of Apostrophe 2 theme. It is not a custom page where I can easily add the shortcode too. Is there a way to add my featured posts carousel show to the default homepage?

    I see an index.php file. Would I need to custom-edit that? Thanks.

    Hi @consumerista,

    Thanks for reaching us. Hope you are doing great today!

    Yes, this is possible to insert the Smart Post Show shortcode inside the templates of your theme. If the theme uses a custom template for the homepage, you need to insert the shortcode by modifying the custom template if required. You can contact your theme author to get a clear idea of exactly which template you need to modify to insert the shortcode.

    Add the following code to the custom template to show the post carousel.

    <?php echo do_shortcode('[smart_post_show id="ID"]'); ?>

    You need to replace the shortcode with the shortcode of your post carousel.

    Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

    Have a great day!
