Just started working with custom post types in a new Child Theme. I've successfully registered a new one, and everything's working fine...but I can't get it to show up on the home page.
Do I need to write a new query? How do I replace the standard one on index.php? Do I need to create a new index.php file?
Sorry if this is a dumb question..

Thanks so much!!

you could try this:

or you could merge some query args like they show in the codex
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/query_posts

and put in on the thematic_above_indexloop hook
```
function kia_adjust_args(){
global $wp_query;
$args = array_merge( $wp_query->query, array( 'post_type' => 'product' ) );
query_posts( $args );
}
add_action('thematic_above_indexloop','kia_adjust_args');
```
in place of 'product' use the name of your CPT
