    Hi
    I'm trying to achieve the following:
    I've constructed a front page using widgets but I want to use blocks to show a row of client images. I can't see how to do this; I've tried adding blocks to the front page but they don't show.
    Any help appreciated
    Regards
    Nick Garnett

    Hi @nickgarnett, unfortunately you cannot mix blocks with the widgets on the home page. You would need to recreate the home page with blocks. What type of content are you trying to add on the home page?

    Need help with customization or troubleshooting? Reach out to me.

    @nickgarnett I asked about this in the Genesis group and Bill Erickson provided a tutorial which may help you build "block based widgets" - https://www.billerickson.net/wordpress-gutenberg-block-widget-areas/. Give that a try.

    Need help with customization or troubleshooting? Reach out to me.

    Hi Anita
    Sorry not to come back sooner.
    I have decided to re-build the page with blocks, so that's great advice
    Regards
