Override Global Settings (From Theme Options) on Individual Pages/Posts
Global settings are centralized on the Theme Options admin page (WP admin -> Loyde -> Theme Options). However, a lot of the global settings can be overridden on individual pages i.e. posts. This provides a great flexibility and more granular control over individual pages/posts look&feel.
How to override global settings on individual pages/posts
Steps:
- Go to WP admin and open the page/post for editing
- Scroll down, and find the metaboxes* below the editor
- Expand desired metabox and change the desired setting field.
note
Metaboxes is the name for a group of custom fields. Custom Fields are setting values available in editor, for individual page/post.
