 * Hello,
 * I really like this theme so I’m in the process of testing the theme to convert.
   Before converting though, I need to know if these critical points can be addressed.
 * 1. I can’t seem to have the sliders show the images. I created 3 pages with one
   picture each to use as sliders and set them as slider 1, 2 and 3 in Slider Options.
   How could I make sure this function can be used?
 * 2. I found out how to change the header and footer colours. Can I also change
   the Topbar, Menu bar, About Us Section and Footer Widget Area colours too?
 * 3. For Social Link Menu, I have set up a few channels with html icons like “fa-
   instagram” with custom URL, but when I put a mouse over to click on it, the cursor
   becomes a circle with a diagonal line across and doesn’t click on the links. 
   Is there another way?
 * 4. I tried copying and pasting all solutions posted for eliminating the sidebar
   completely from all pages but still doesn’t work. Is there another way to remove
   it? And when I remove it, would the page display in full-layout if it’s set to
   be?
 * 5. Your default Header Image or Inner Banner can’t be removed unless I put another
   picture. Could I remove this section completely?
 * 6. Service Section’s “Select post for service 1” and the other drop down menus
   doesn’t display anything. How can I use this function?
 * Thanks so much in advance for the help.

 * Thanks so much for the helpful responses.
 * I still have a few struggles with the setup.
 * 1. Now that I learned and set up featured images for sliders, I set up 3 of them
   but only 2 shows up.
 * 2. I’ve realize that only posts can be used for Service Section. So I set up 
   3 posts but only 2 shows up in all of the service 1, 2 and 3 drop down lists 
   even though all 3 posts are set with same settings.
 * 3. Now that I created the 3 posts for Service Section, it shows up on the home
   page as a new post/blog with the dates as a duplicate of Service Section underneath
   it. I tried some CSS you posted in other answers but couldn’t still remove them.
 * 4. How could I change colour of the font for Service Section title?
 * 5. All my pages are set to be “Full Width Template” however, after removing the
   side section, the pages are not displayed in full width. Under the Theme Setting
   > General Settings, I did set the Layout to be Full-layout as well.
 * 6. The social media icons are still not clickable.
 * I uploaded couple screenshot for better understanding:
 * For numbers 2, 3 & 4: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/9lq6kgurpsd3c8p/Pic%201.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/9lq6kgurpsd3c8p/Pic%201.png?dl=0)

 * Hello,
    I am having a very similar issue. When the page is set to Page With Full
   Width, it displays correctly. But if I make the page the **homepage**, then suddenly
   it reverts to a sidebar layout (with a right sidebar). I can get rid of the sidebar
   with the CSS you gave in this thread (event-right), but the page still doesn’t
   display full width. If I remove the page from being the homepage, then it does
   show full width. You can view the difference here – if I swop these pages around
   then the homepage is not full width but the regular page is: [https://martellochange.com/](https://martellochange.com/)
   [https://martellochange.com/martello-change-consulting/](https://martellochange.com/martello-change-consulting/)
   I can see that the Section class changes from “align-page-full” to “align-blog
   blog_page” when you change it to homepage and back again. This is some problem
   in your theme? Can you provide me with a fix please? Thank you.

 * Is it perhaps something to do with the fact that an ordinary page was set as 
   the homepage instead of using the frontpage template to create the homepage?
