    Hi There,

    Is there an easy way to create one more front page, for instance front-page-8, in Altitude Pro?

    Thanks for your help!

    Cheers

    Claude

    Hello PassionVente,

    You would have to add in functions.php

    genesis_register_sidebar( array(
    	'id'          => 'front-page-8',
    	'name'        => __( 'Front Page 8', 'altitude' ),
    	'description' => __( 'This is the front page 8 section.', 'altitude' ),
    ) );

    around line 244 - you will see all the widget areas from 1 to 7.

    And in front-page.php add

    	genesis_widget_area( 'front-page-8', array(
    		'before' => '<div id="front-page-8" class="front-page-8"><div class="image-section"><div class="flexible-widgets widget-area' . altitude_widget_area_class( 'front-page-8' ) . '"><div class="wrap">',
    		'after'  => '</div></div></div></div>',
    	) );

    in the function altitude_front_page_widgets().
    Here you can add/change the classes you need or remove the image-section div

    Bye,

    Good morning Saxisme,

    Before I close the topic, would I dare to ask you a last question? 😉

    When I add for instance a front-page-8 with the image-section div, how can I set the background image I would like to have? Of course in the menu appearance/customize I have no option to change the image of the new front page I added...

    I'm sure it's again an easy one... for you!

    Thanks in advance 🙂

    Add this filter in your functions.php file

    add_filter( 'altitude_images', 'gd_custom_bg' );
    function gd_custom_bg( $arr ){
       $arr[4] = '8';
        return $arr;
    }

    When I add the filter in functions.php I get the option in the appearance menu/customize to change the picture of the front page 8. Then when I set an image obviously something happens (a kind of flash or refresh of the screen) however the image doesn't appears... I cleaned the cache, tried with another browser, still no image!
