I have Renew Stack and Renew 03 demo (not full demo website content) loaded.
After a week of browsing tutorials and documentation - somewhat confused about where to start re: cornerstone, building up components of page, etc. A lot of doc and tutorials seem to pre-date the latest cornerstone/stack/demo package(?).
What I think I want to do, using Renew 03 home page as a starting point:
- Bring in some icons to replace the default 175x175 circles in the middle section.
- Set up a “one page menu” for part of the home page (with some normal page menu items) - but leave the “one page menu” items off the other pages.
- have a footer on the home page and other pages (doesn’t seem to show up on my renew 03 demo).
Questions:
-
In general what is the best approach to use if starting with a stack demo? Copy the demo home page to another page to play around with? (If so - what is a good way/plugin to copy pages - that works with x/cornerstone)?
-
On the Renew 03 demo home page - when I get into cornerstone - I see the layout/elements/inspector display for the different sections - but it is not clear how to modify things. Specifically I’d like to replace the 175x175 circles in the “Features 3 Columns” section with icons (lists, dollar sign, etc.). My attempts at doing this have failed miserably - little itty bitty icons that I can’t figure out how to expand to the same size as the circles, etc.
-
As an aside, what would be helpful, that I haven’t found, is an explanation of how this demo home page was built in cornerstone, section by section. It’s hard to reverse engineer it, not being familiar with all the knowledge and assumptions that have gone into it…
I’ll leave it at that. I’ve built WP sites with different themes before, so I think once I get started with this I’ll be OK.
Thanks.
