Landing page, dropdown menu

Greetings!

I’m not sure if you’ve seen the tutorials, or if you still need help, but here is a link to the complete set of Storytime Tutorials:

For submenus…WordPress has a tutorial for creating menus, but try this one from our “Common Setup” tutorials:

Hi Andre,
Went through the tutorials regarding the landing/splash page.

I was hoping to be able to put a couple of links to new articles or artwork under the title and description but can’t find anything that tells how to do it.

Tried to see if I could write some html in a coding block to add to the landing page but can’t figure out how to make it work.

Did I miss it somewhere.

Didn’t get to the menu yet.

Hmmm…I might need to do some updating with additional info for the tutorial.

You can add a menu just below the title on the splash page. When making a menu for that, you would assign the menu to the Splash Menu location. Then you would just add whatever menu links to whatever you want.

on this tutorial:
https://www.roughpixels.com/documentation/storytime-tutorials/storytime-splash-page/
…when making the menu Splash Page Button, you can add more links to your menu. So, if you want to add links to a couple of articles, this is where you would do it.

Note: if you just want the links to be normal without a button style, ignore step-7 under the Splash Page Button.

As for adding a graphic or something, you won’t be able to do that without creating a child theme and then customizing the splash template. In this case, you will only be able to do the menu because it has a precoded location for a menu only (under the site title area).

Hope that helps?

Andre,
Thanks, my homepage is set up mostly.

What I am tring to do is get a magazine style set up where the title is placed like the masthead on a cover with two or three text links that below that can go to the left, right or center depending on the cover image.

So, I have the site title and description in the same size as they are on regular site pages. What I can’t figure out how to get them to move to the top of the page.

The article links are centered below stuck in the center. It would be great if I could have the option to have them left-justified, centered, or right-justified.

I looked into trying to put article links in a block to make editing easier but that is beyond my ability right now. I figure that I can live with putting them into the html.

This is has gotten so much more complicated than what I had hoped at first. But if I can pull it off it would be really cool.

Oh, and yes, I will be putting all this into a child theme.

Is it possible to get a link to where your site is? I might be able to give you a solution for positioning your title and description.

Hello,
Let me get back to with that. There are a coule of things I need to clean up.

Andre,
Here is the link:

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the link!
I’m not sure if this is what you are looking for, but if you want the splash content (currently in middle) to reposition to the top, copy and paste this into the Customizer’s Additional CSS tab:

#splash {
    justify-content: start;
}

Andre,
justify-content works but it doesn’t like to be squeezed into a mobile screen.

I may have to just do without that.

My questions here are pretty much answered so I’ll call it resolved.

Thanks again for your help.
