• I have a site at “wp-multisites.com” that uses a child theme of 2017. The latter is untouched. If you have the time, you’ll see that the second item on the navigation bar is called “What We Do”. Although its linked page needs more styling work, it basically displays what I want.

    The “What We Do” page is a Custom Template that was created with 2017’s “front-page.php”, taking out the loop. Where the loop used to be, I added some bootstrap code, image links and text. I also added to the theme the necessary bootstrap css and js files.

    Now, the first item on the navigation bar (“Home”) uses 2017’s default front page, which allows me to display other pages in Sections. You’ll see that I added the “What We Do” page to the second section, but it is not displayed. I just can’t figure it out. Any gtuidance appreciated. Thanks!

  • if you look into /inc/template-tags.php, you see the function twentyseventeen_front_page_section( $partial = null, $id = 0 ) which deals with the panels, by calling /template-parts/page/content-front-page-panels.php – and there is no inclusion of custom page templates …

    instead of a custom page template for your 4 columns, possibly consider to create and use shortcode in the ‘what we do’ page.
