Choose the position Save Repeat if necessary

After creating the blocks, it is important to choose which one will be on the front page of the webshop. For this we first go to (General) Page. Here you can create a new page, if there isn't one yet. Give this page a clear name, in case you change your mind later and want to show something else. Navigate to the just created page --> items. This is the place where you can put previously created things on the page. In the case of a carousel, you determine here which of the previously created carousels may be shown. Don't forget to save.

Once you are done creating the page, you can also choose to set it as the start page of the webshop. You do this in (General) Configurations --> [Configuration] --> Start page.
