I finally feel that I can help here.
I wanted to have columns on my main page, rather than a layout built in to Graphene for 2 column or 3 columns.
I tried the plugin called: “Column Shortcodes and it works great but didn’t have much to offer in the looks department.
If you look here you can better understand: http://help-me-candi.com
To get this look, put this in the Graphene CSS found at the bottom of the Graphene Options – Display Tab:
.home .type-page {
display: none;
}
Then choose the choose how many columns you want, by selecting how many columns you want in your footer.
I chose 3
Then you just create your information within the footer.
I cannot write code, so I have a private page where I layout what I want, and then I choose to view in text and copy the code.
I then past the code into the footer widget where I want it.
I really like the way it looks…
I can use advance options — action hooks — sidebar-footer.php to add the information I would have used on the footer. I just have not done it yet.
