    Hello dear Support Team,

    i want to customize my start page and display additional content (text) WITHOUT Featured | About Us | Tab | Client Logo Section. I just tried this but only slider will be shown.

    What do i wrong?

    Many thanks in advance.

    Regards
    Jürgen

    Hey photomaxe,

    Could you provide a link to your site so I can see what you’re referring too?

    Hey there @photomaxe,

    I don’t think it is possible to add additional content to the front page besides the predefined sections. You can only use those to bring in content from pages.

    Have a great day,

    many thanks to @fmixell and @baicusandrei ,

    i agree it seems the only way is to use any predefined section to get some content to my start page.

    well i’ll take the about section and hereby see confronted with further difficulties with headings specification.

    – the about section takes <h2> furthermore <h1> is taken by the site title: <h1 class="sq-site-title">

    i guess it’s rather simple to change the header.php but how to change from h2 to h1 within the about-section? – to which *.php does this correspond?

    regards
    jürgen

    I’d recommend creating a child theme to overwrite the contents of the about section. You should find all you need here.

    Furthermore you should be able to overwrite the about section in front-page.php. Just copy and paste the file into your child theme to overwrite it. You can find the title tag on line 118 and change it from there:
    <h2 class="sq-section-title"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>

    To recap:

    – create a child theme
    – copy the front-page.php file into it
    – change the tag on line 118

    Have a great day!

    Andrei

    genius @baicusandrei 🙂

    i’ll add this to my existing child theme and take this chance to implement a custom h1-class in style.css

    kind regards
