    I am using the Lifestyle Pro theme. How can I divide the Home Page Middle section into columns? I would like to add various widgets in the columns in that section. My goal is to create a little more visual interest on the home page.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Without knowing how many widgets you want to add - and what type - this is a bit of a shot in the dark.)

    Add your widgets to Home -Middle. Add this CSS snippet to the bottom of your child theme stylesheet:

    .home-middle .widget {
    	float: left;
    	margin-right: 2%;
    	width: 32%;
    }
    
    .home-middle .widget:last-of-type {
    	float: right;
    	margin-right: 0px;
    	padding-right: 0px;
    }
    	
    @media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
    	
    	.home-middle .widget {
    		width: 100%;
    	}		
    }

    This is setup for three widget across; you can adjust for more or fewer. The media query makes these widgets appear full width on smaller screens. The trigger point can be adjusted from 767px as desired.
