To add more default sections like Blog Posts or Slideshow to your Dawn theme template, you’ll need to edit the corresponding JSON template file located in your theme under template e.g. index.json for the homepage. Open index.json and add the section blocks you want by copying the structure of existing sections and specifying the type like blog-posts or type, slideshow. Make sure the matching section files exist in selection After saving, those sections will appear by default on that page. Always back up your theme before making changes.
