 * Great theme and amazing of you to offer your time through your videos and forums
   to support our community.
 * On the hero banner section (the top part of the homepage under the menu), can
   the latest/recent post be changed so that it just includes some basic copy (title,
   sub-title)?
 * Thank you,
    Angelo

 * Hello Angelo,
 * That part is already addressed in the Welcome Message area, where you have the“
   Subscribe Now” text widget.
 * Best regards,

 * Hi Dumitru,
 * Thanks for the reply.
 * I don’t want to include more text in the Subscribe Now widget but need to replace
   the section above (Latest Episode) with some Welcome Text. Can you advise?
 * Regards,
    Angelo

 * Hi,
    That would be problematic, as you would have to directly edit at least one
   theme file. Those changes would be overwritten during every future theme update,
   so you will have to re-apply your changes. Or you would have to stop updating
   the theme, which is also a bad idea. One way would be to create a child theme
   and replace the index.php file, but that could also cause issues with future 
   updates.
 * So I can’t really suggest an easy and permanent way of doing it.
 * Best regards,
    Dumitru

 * No worries at all Dumitru and makes complete sense.
 * Will keep as per your advice.
 * Quick one, is there a chance to add in a link on the black bar in the footer 
   where we the copyright sits? Looking to add a link for the Privacy Policy.

 * I’ll consider adding a “legal menu location” in a future theme update.
    But at
   the moment I can’t provide an ETA for that. Most likely by the end of the month.
   I hope that will work well for you 🙂

 * Superb, that would be incredibly helpful!
 * How can I stay abreast with such inclusions on the theme?
