Homepage

Overview

Content > Pages > Index

The "INDEX" template is your homepage template and is assigned automatically to your home page. In the CMS, your homepage will be titled "INDEX" and cannot be changed.

The header options for your homepage are the same for your subpage templates: static image, muted/looping background video or image rotator.

With an image or video, you can use the "Header Text" field to add a text overlay. For the rotator, the text will pull from each item within the rotator setup. 

Sections

The rest of the page is controlled via sections, and the homepage sections function the same way as the "Subpage Default" template.

Content > Link Lists > Featured Links

Within each item, the following fields are used: name, link, description, button text and icon class.

See a full list of available icons here: http://princeofpeace.monkpreview3.com/_assets/fonts/icons/icomoon/

Within the Home - Featured Links section, the monklet labeled "Section Monklet - Link List Featured Links" is added in the content field. The "find" parameter is needed in order to specify which link list to use.

ex: {{section-monklet-linklist-featured-links|find="featured-links"}} 

The "section top" category is added, in order for this section to overlap the header/billboard area.
