Hello Michael,
Did you customize a new page? And you want to make that page as a front page? Would you please make us clear that what is happening now? Please post your site URL too. Before this, please read this blog post, that will help you to customize the theme. http://www.acmethemes.com/blog/2016/03/supermagpro-best-magazine-wordpress-theme/
