Remaining on the Homepage, you can customize the Promo Banner by selecting the 'Actions' button. You can choose 'Customize' 'Publish' or 'Remove Widget'. In 'Customize Widget', you can customize your Promo Banner by inserting text to appear on the banner, selecting the font color you would like the text on the banner to appear, and choosing a background color for the banner. Click 'Save' to record your changes, or 'Cancel' to undo them.
