How to set a Homepage as the default page for my Magento store?

Once the Pearl Theme is installed, you can easily switch between the sample homepages. This can be done either manually or using the Demo Settings Import.

Option 1: Change Homepage with Manual Setup

a) Set the desired Homepage as default

Go to:

Magento Admin → Stores → Configuration → Web → Default Pages

Select your desired homepage (e.g., Homepage V15).

b) Configure the width of CMS Pages (optional)

Each homepage has a specific width. To match the demo store:

Go to:

WeltPixel → Frontend Options → Section Width

From here, set the widths for store pages, for example:

• CMS Page: 100%, 1400px, 1200px, 80%
• Row: 1200px, 100%

You can log in to the Pearl Theme demo admin (use incognito if it doesn’t auto-login) to check exact widths for each demo store view.

c) Regenerate theme files & clear cache

Go to:

System → Cache Management

• Regenerate Pearl Theme LESS/CSS
• Flush Magento Cache

Your new homepage should now display.

Option 2: Change Homepage with Demo Settings Import

⚠️ Warning: This will also overwrite general theme settings, including category and product page settings.

a) Set the desired Homepage

Same as manual:

Magento Admin → Stores → Configuration → Web → Default Pages

Select homepage (e.g., Homepage V15).

b) Import demo settings via SSH

Connect to your server and run from your Magento root (mymagentostore.com/html):

php bin/magento weltpixel:import:demo --store=GLOBAL --demoVersion=v15
php bin/magento weltpixel:cleanup
php bin/magento weltpixel:less:generate
php bin/magento weltpixel:css:generate --store=default
