I have a self-hosted site on wordpress - I have been told it isn't self-hosted.
Basically, I have my own domain but use Wordpress as a platform. I am currently trying to create a home page where there the home page contains latest blog posts as well as sliders, image galleries etc.
I don’t want the latest blog posts to be on the sidebar, I want it to be as it would be if I had selected “latest posts”. I have added the content view plugin and it is closer to what I want but still not quite there yet. I would like to change the font size/style, positioning of title etc. but I am unable to do this. Ideally, would like blog posts to be in a vertical format rather than a grid or the most recent post as the main post then the other recent posts in chronological order in a grid format such as /?theme=foodica
Can anyone help?
Any plugins/widgets would be appreciated.
Thank you!

- @JacobPeattie Theoretically this is not necessarily true any more since wordpress introduced the Business plan wordpress/business which gives you more access to install plugins and themes almost like normal self hosting. – kraftner Commented Nov 7, 2018 at 11:52
- Doesn't make it "self-hosted". – Jacob Peattie Commented Nov 7, 2018 at 11:55
- Self-hosted site VS wordpress ... FYI : If it's on wordpress, it's not in self-hosted site. – Mike Castro Demaria Commented Nov 7, 2018 at 13:22
- Maybe I am not using the correct terms. I have my own domain and web hosting and I am using Wordpress for my blogging. – arteewp Commented Nov 8, 2018 at 13:32

Reset to default 0There is a plugin called Page Builder. If you don't know much about Wordpress then you can use this for designing your pages.
If you want to customize the theme (edit font size, colour, etc) then try creating Child Themes.
I hope that helps.
