Homepage Monklets
Overview
Monklets are predefined code snippets that allow you to bring in other module content (sermons, events, etc.) into your pages. There are a few monklets that have been created that are placed in the content area of your sidebar sections.
You can use a monklet inside a section by placing your cursor in the content area, selecting Insert > Insert Monklet > "Desired Monklet".
Some monklets allow/require inline parameters to define items from a specific group, category, etc. You can use one of the inline "find" parameters such as the "find_category" parameter to display items from a specific category. Example: {{section-monklet-featured-articles|find_category="stories"}}
These monklets were designed to be used on Carmichael's homepage, but can be used in other full width sections throughout your site! You can find other section monklets included on your theme HERE.
This monklet will display a row of banners from a link list. The heading and description display in the banner with the button displaying on hover. The image displays behind the text. The field "Button Text" is required to show the button.
You will need to use the "find" parameter to tell the monklet which link list to display. An example of this would look like this: {{section-monklet-featured-banners-carousel-2|find="featured-banners-carousel"}}
