Home page is the first page that ViArt CMS visitors see. Except the header (see section 2.3.3) and the greeting (see details)
the whole page consists of the so called blocks. As a rule, it includes several predefined blocks as well as multiple
custom ones. All of them are positioned dynamically and could be located into three columns.
Note: for more information about custom blocks please see details.
In order to set up the main page layout please go to Administration > Layouts > Home Page Layout.
Your screen should look like the following:
At the top of the screen you will see the 'Available blocks' field. As the name suggests all available blocks are listed there.
Should you have created any custom blocks they will be displayed in the list as well.
