Adding Articles to the Home Page

At this point, you've created all the sections, categories, and articles for the website, at least as placeholders; but if you look at the front end of the website, it still looks like nothing has been done! That's because you have a pile of articles created but they are not yet linked to the menus on the website.

Because there's much more to learn about articles, before we move to menus this lessons demonstrates how to include articles on the home page of the website. That way, you get a sense of how they will look when they are connected to the menus. Displaying articles on the home page is something you can do without using the Menu Manager — you can add articles to the home page directly from the Article Manager.
