It is very simple. You only need to edit file home.php to configure the home page. You do not need any programming skills to do it. Indomagz has 4 different areas for the home page. This picture will help you to more understand it.
1. Featured Category
Find this code,

You can change the value of cat_featured with your featured category ID and num_featured with number of posts will be shown.

We have two different size of thumbnail pictures (125×125 and 200×150). You should read How To Add Thumbnail Using Custom Fields.

Hello,
Nice template, one question. What if I don’t want a thumb image to be shown on the cat left and cat right? I changed the value to 0 but that didn’t work. It showed all the latest post show up when the value was zero.
any help would be appreciated.
Mike.

never mind i figured it out, I removed the:
ID, 'thumbpic', true); ?>
<a href="" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to ">
<img src="" alt="" />
<a href=”" rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to “>
<img src=”/images/thumbpic-left.jpg” alt=”" />
<a href=”" rel=”bookmark” title=”Permanent Link to ” class=”title”>
