You need to create a new page template based on index.php and page.php (or template-fullwidth.php if you'd like to create a fullwidth frontpage). </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/static-main-page-with-slider#post-28028 Tue, 27 Sep 2011 23:19:00 +0000 lcontheroad 28028@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi, I'm working with Nike theme and need a static page with the slider functioning. The above instructions don't work for this theme. Can you please give me instructions for the Nike theme that will allow me to have the slider plus a static page?<br /> thank you!!!<br /> Leanna </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/static-main-page-with-slider#post-24466 Tue, 09 Aug 2011 17:43:30 +0000 Dude 24466@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Glad that I could help you :) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/static-main-page-with-slider#post-24464 Tue, 09 Aug 2011 17:28:07 +0000 mmlaarhoven 24464@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Great, sometimes simple things can just do what jou want ....</p> <p>Thanx a lot for your support!!!</p> <p>Maurice </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/static-main-page-with-slider#post-24456 Tue, 09 Aug 2011 15:55:55 +0000 Dude 24456@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Yes that's possible. A quick hack:</p> <p>Open up archive.php and replace:<br /> <pre><code>if ($fullsized &gt; 0) :</code></pre> <p>with:<br /> <pre><code>if (0 &gt; 0) :</code></pre> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/static-main-page-with-slider#post-24450 Tue, 09 Aug 2011 14:57:42 +0000 mmlaarhoven 24450@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Thank you for your quick response, this almost works as I intended! ;'&gt;</p> <p>I would like the article on the first page to be "big" (two colums wide) and the articles on the menued pages to be small (2 small next to eachother). Is that also possible ?</p> <p>You can have a look at: <a href="http://www.laarhoven-ict.nl/wp" rel="nofollow">http://www.laarhoven-ict.nl/wp</a><br /> the main page should be big and the posts on the "Voorstellingen 2011" page should all be small...</p> <p>Thanx a lot. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/static-main-page-with-slider#post-24442 Tue, 09 Aug 2011 13:27:28 +0000 Dude 24442@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey,<br /> 1) It's not directly possible. You can use a workaround though. Open up index.php and replace:<br /> <pre><code>$additional_loop = new WP_Query(&quot;cat=&quot;.$negative_cats.&quot;&amp;paged=$paged&quot;);</code></pre> <p>with:<br /> <pre><code>$additional_loop = new WP_Query(array(&#39;post_type&#39; =&gt; &#39;page&#39;, &#39;post__in&#39; =&gt; array(50)));</code></pre> <p>and instead of 50 fill in the ID of your page. Then search for:<br /> <pre><code>&lt;div class=&quot;entry-text&quot;&gt; &lt;?php the_excerpt() ?&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</code></pre> <p>and replace it with:<br /> <pre><code>&lt;div class=&quot;entry-text&quot;&gt; &lt;?php the_content() ?&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</code></pre> <p>and delete:<br /> <pre><code>&lt;a href=&quot;&lt;?php echo get_permalink() ?&gt;&quot; class=&quot;more-link&quot;&gt;&lt;?php _e(&#39;Read more&#39;,&#39;newscast&#39;); ?&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</code></pre> <p>2) You can use the menu manager (Appearance &gt; Menus ) to add any content you like. I posted a tutorial here: <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/i-can%E2%80%99t-create-a-custom-menu-the-menu-behaves-weird" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/i-can%E2%80%99t-create-a-custom-menu-the-menu-behaves-weird</a> </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/static-main-page-with-slider#post-24439 Tue, 09 Aug 2011 12:58:34 +0000 mmlaarhoven 24439@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi there,</p> <p>I could not find the answer to my question on the forum. Maybe I overlook it, but this is my question:</p> <p>I would like a static main page for the website with the slider (filled with the blog-posts) in it.<br /> I would like 3 menu items to 3 different categories of posts.</p> <p>How can I arrange this?</p> <p>Many thanx,</p> <p>Maurice </p>
