HomeRunner Toolkit is an add-on for your HomeRunner site that bundles dozens of focused upgrades to search, maps, reviews, branding, and checkout. Turn on only the features you want from one place.
What Toolkit is #
Toolkit installs on top of your HomeRunner site and adds optional features you can switch on individually. Each feature is a small, self-contained module with its own on/off toggle and, where relevant, its own settings panel. You are never forced to use a feature you do not want.
Everything lives in one screen: HomeRunner → Toolkit in your WordPress admin (the Toolkit Hub). From there you enable a module, open its settings if it has any, and the change takes effect on your live site.
This overview groups every Toolkit feature by what it helps you do. Open any article for setup steps and tips.
