Dear @Dhwani Trivedi ,

Let's breakdown your questions and answer one by one.

• How to remove header ?

It depends whether you have full access to developer portal or only limited access. If you are a free customer of Apigee only limited things you can do like changing the Appearance of Main Menu as mentioned here.

If you are a paid customer of Apigee, You should have full access to the Developer portal where you can write your own custom css as well as customer templates, themes to change the look of the Developer Portal from top to bottom. If you are a paid customer do not have access, please open a support ticket to get access. To build a new theme or change templates you might need little bit of Drupal Expertise.

• Remove Default Blogs, Comments, Forum Blocks from Home Page.

Those blocks you see in home page are enabled using Context module. You can remove them by navigating to "admin/structure/context" as an administrator > Click on Edit button Next to home context > Click on Blocks in reactions section and remove blocks from content region. See screen shot below for more details.

• Adding new content to the home page

Create new Blocks by navigating to Structure -> Blocks. Using the above context home page screen you can add blocks created to the home page. Read more about context module here.

Thank you @sgilson for your quick response. I tried those thing but, Mine is more custom than those documents.

Thank you @asagar. I have to delete welcome-header.jpg"Welcome to the New Apigee Site" in this image "Welcome Header.jpeg". In fact , I need to delete that header.

Also, I need to modify area below this header which is in image "default blog post.jpeg". I would like to set my custom image in back ground and either form or hyper link. default-blog-post.jpg

Please guide me.

Thank you.
