You are welcome, I like helping you. And you’re (or the site is) from Canada, I like that country 
.
I used the php file template.page.fullwidth for creating my homepage template + added the code from slider and blurb from SimpleCorp’s default homepage file (home).
I use the shortcode because you cannot add a div when creating/changing a page or post because this will mess up te site. Besides that, the shortcode is part of this theme (it has many) so it works well.
Note: when I used your plugin I was not able to change the default language in plugins setttingspage and I was not able to select a template (on the right) while creating/changing a page. So your plugin has some bugs in it. I guess because of the lack of updates.
