Customise homepage w/ categories

Hi there,

if you use the GenerateBlocks plugin, you can add a Grid Block inside a Container Block to create the layout.
Inside each of the Grid items add a Headline block for your links, each of which can be given an icon.

This is probably a stupid question but how do I add a Grid Block under my 'Header' section like in the example URL above? I can only seem to add widgets to the header, footer, top bar and right bar.

Thank you

Not a stupid quest at all :) Its me making assumptions ....
Use a Block Element - Page Hero:

In that black element editor.
1. Add a GB Container Block, and give it some Spacing > Padding eg. 40px for desktop, 20px for mobile. And add your background color.
2. Inside that Container, add your Grid Block

Then in the Elements Display Rules set the the Location to Front Page.

Thank you David! I managed to add the block element, but how does one add an icon? I added the Font Awesome plug-in, but can't seem to copy and paste the HTML of an icon into the space for this in Wordpress?

but how does one add an icon?

You can add the icon via an image block, but you'll need to upload the icon to the media library first.

Or if you have the icon's svg code, you can use a headline block or a button block to add custom icon:
