Show latest post on static page for Travelify WordPress theme?

You can achieve this by adding this PHP code to your Child Theme functions.php file. Sample Travelify Child Theme can be downloaded from here.

// Add custom text above blog on front page
add_action( 'travelify_before_loop_content', 'custom_introduction' , 13 );

function custom_introduction() {
	if ( is_home() || is_front_page() ) {
		echo '<section class="post type-post home-intro"><article>
			<div class="entry-content clearfix">
			<p>This is my content</p>
			</div>
			</article>
			</section>';
	}
}

Now you have to edit text that appears as:

<p>This is my content</p>

You can use any HTML there.
