Creating homepage

Hi There,
We are new to GeneratePress and are in the process of setting up a new website for a client.
The only thing we are stuck on at the moment is creating the homepage as can be seen in the sample here: http://localitywestmids.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/WordPress-›-GeneratePress-«-Free-WordPress-Themes.png
We will have a good look through the tutorial videos now to see if we can suss it out, but any advice you can give would be helpful.
We've look through some of the previous support issues but can't find anything we can make sense of at the moment!
Many thanks
Hi there,
That screenshot is using a regular page header, and then the grid columns plugin to create columns within the content: https://wordpress.org/plugins/lightweight-grid-columns/
Let me know if you need more info :)
Hi Tom
Thanks for getting back!
So do we follow the usual format with this:
A) Set up a 'home page' page
B) Set that as 'front page'
C) Add the required content
I'll check out and install the suggested plugin.
Cheers :-)
Hi,
I take it this plugin is stable as far as you know?
I have noted 'Last Updated: 2013-10-4' on the plugin page.
Cheers
Yes, it's stable (using it on this site).
I have my own coming out soon which can replace it :)
Let me know if you have any questions!

Hi Tom
I think we'll wait for your homepage shortcode or equivalent.
We find the Grid Columns installation guide a little confusing and overbearing!
Cheers,
Tippa :-)
My new columns plugin is released! https://wordpress.org/plugins/lightweight-grid-columns/
Cheers Tom
That's great news. We'll have a play soon. ;-)
Regards
Tippa
