Hub #1
Template Overview
The Hub is a content-heavy page specifically aimed towards regular and engaged church attenders. This page serves to provide the latest media and make it easy for regular attenders to be engaged.
Your Hub #1 templates allows up to 9 content sections and provides the same options as your main site full width sections.
Content > Sections
Content - This is the main content block and supports the content/styles of the page content.
Background Color - This color allows you to set the background color of the section and should be a html hex value. A good reference is http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_colorpicker.asp.
Background Image - This serves as the section background image. This image should be 1,400px in width by the desired height. The height will depend on the amount of content in the section. A recommended height would be between 600px and 1,200px (double for retina).
Dark Background - Selecting this checkbox displays the content in white color on top of the site default section background color or dark background image.
Large Padding - Adds additional horizontal padding to make the container taller.
Narrow Container - Displays the content at a narrow width.
Parallax Background - This option turns the Background Image into a parallax background.
Icon Class - Selecting the page checkbox "Section Nav" will place a section navigation at the bottom of the page on mobile devices allowing users to scroll between sections. If this option is used the section Description will be the name of the link and the Icon Class is used to add a custom icon to the link. If the page checkbox is selected only sections with the Description field used will display in the navigation.

Sections and Monklets
Overview
Monklets defined with "Hub 1 Monklet " in the title can be inserted in the content area of a section. Inline parameters are not currently supported, except for the blog and link list monklets. Monklets are setup to display all items from a given module.
*To filter items, you can assign a category or group (in addition to the default site group) to the Hub page. Once a category or group is assigned, all monklets (except for the blog, "Hub 1 Monklet - Connect Links" and "Hub 1 Monklet - Link List" monklets) will pull in and display all matching items from modules with the same category or group.
NOTE: Categories and groups are supported throughout all modules (sermons, articles and events) so using a single category or group will work seamlessly through all modules.
As an example, if you add the category or group of "Hub" to your Hub page, any item that you'd like shown on the Hub page will also need to have the category or group of "Hub" assigned to it. The exception to this rule are the blog, "Hub 1 Monklet - Connect Links" and "Hub 1 Monklet - Link List" monklets.
