[intro]In this Guide, you’ll learn how to edit and customise the 3 Promos section of the Aerial Theme on your EKM online shop.[/intro]

Before you begin, it’s a good idea to prepare the images you would like to use in the 3 Promos section on your Homepage. You will need to create a design image that measures 350px x 350px. This should be a .png product image with a transparent background. The background image is 570px x 370px and should ideally be a plain image with no text or excessive detail. These images will 'flex' and change shape, according to the device being used to view your EKM online shop. With this in mind, it's important that you do not include any text within the images themselves, but instead use the text fields to ensure that text can be read, regardless of the size of the browser being used to view your EKM online shop. 

These images should be uploaded to Tiny Png/Tiny Jpeg beforehand (according to file type) to ensure that they have been optimised and will load quickly for visitors to your EKM online shop. 

1. Click the Edit symbol to open this section:

2. Click the down arrow to edit each different element:

Promo Box 1, 2, 3

3. Now you can configure each of the images and their text. To begin amend the text in the fields provided for the Title and the Content:

4. Now you need to configure the Button. If you wish to use the Button, ensure that the switch is turned on, and you have amended the text in the field accordingly:

6. In the menu that appears, each folder symbol represents a different area of your EKM online shop. Click the green cross symbol to expand the relevant folder and select what Product, Category or Webpage you want to link to the Button:

[remember]The Category, Product or Webpage that you want to link to sections must be visible and not hidden on your EKM online shop, otherwise, it won’t be visible in the link menu when you are creating the link. [/remember]

7. Scroll further down and you can begin to customise the Promo One Image. From the drop-down menu, select the alignment of the content and ensure that the Show Image switch is turned on, and then click the Select Image button:

12. Now you’ve added the Promo One Image Image, scroll further down. Here you can choose whether you would like a solid colour background behind Promo Image One, or whether you want to use a separate image as the background instead. If you wish to use a solid colour as the background, click the Promo One Background Square to open the Colour Picker window and use that to select your colour or add a hex code for your colour:

13. However, if you want to use an image instead of a solid colour background, click the switch to enable and click Select Image:
