# Button Banner/Header Field

 * We are looking at adding a banner above our current header slider to incorporate
   some direct link buttons – a mock-up jpg of this can be found at [http://lutherkinghouse.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Website-Button-banner-addition-3.jpg](http://lutherkinghouse.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Website-Button-banner-addition-3.jpg)
   
   The problem is I don’t know if this is a widget, a plug-in; what the actual name
   of something like this is… Because of the latter, I’m not even sure what to search
   for. The buttons (although fixed in their layout) would need to be linked to 
   different pages across the site and with titles and links that can be changed/
   updated on a semi-regular basis). There has also been discussions with management
   about the possibility of a small box appearing as you hover over the active buttons
   with a brief description of the linked page content. Can anyone help – or guide
   me in the right direction?

 * I know you’ve come here for pragmatic advice, but I think you shouldn’t go through
   with this because doing _‘masonry_‘ layouts well is time consuming and expensive.
 * That’s the keyword you want. It sounds like once you have the plugin, you’ll 
   still need a custom job to implement it.
 * I must ask why you need this particular design of links above the content. It’s
   essentially an odd looking navigation menu that is difficult to navigate sequentially.
   That’s why you can’t find a name for it.

 * [@anevins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anevins/) Thank you for your advice.
   I’m afriad I’m an intermediary – I tend to do a lot of the day-to-day ‘caretaking’
   of the website and the management have seen examples of these ‘masonry’ layouts
   on other sites (for example – [https://www.cliffcollege.ac.uk/](https://www.cliffcollege.ac.uk/)
   underneath their header slider), and feel that the inclusion of something similar
   on ours would be beneficial for the user (accesing information directly from 
   keyword-titled buttons rather than going through the drop-down menu header we
   currently have).
 * If it’s okay, I can use your recommendation when I feedback to them and see how
   they feel.

 * That’s an example of something that’s implemented nicely on a particular size
   but doesn’t work in responsive Web development and acts as poor content for people
   with screen readers and search engines. That’s what I mean by it’s difficult 
   and expensive to implement correctly.
