Description
This theme is probably best used for a blog or some other kind of personal website. It hooks into WooCommerce to provide mom-and-pop scale ecommerce functionality.
Two "features" which might need short explanations:
You can alter the way posts appear on index pages, namely the blog/posts page and taxonomy pages, by choosing the background image template in the post editor. This template only affects posts that appear in lists and will not affect the "single" view of the post. It's best that any post that uses this template has a featured image.
You can add panels, consisting of a large image with text layered on top, to a page on your site by selecting the panel page template. You can also include these panels on your blog page by navigating to your blog page and checking the box in the CP Panels customizer section.
