Hey Guys,

I am working in the Icon theme and have a blog page as my homepage. I would like to add a welcome message above my blog posts. Pretty much just like the Blog Header that is available in the Integrity theme. Is it possible to add a Blog Header using the Icon theme?

As always, your help is much appreciated.

Hi There,

Because this requires a template change, I’d advise that you setup a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released. After your child theme is setup, please review how we recommend making template changes in Customization Best Practices.

Then add the code below on your child theme’s functions.php file.

/**
Add something on the Blog index page after the slider
*/
function custom_landmark() { 
 if(is_home()): ?>
    <div class="custom-landmark">
      <div class="x-container max width">
        <p>CUSTOM Welcome Message HERE</p>
      </div>
    </div>
  <?php endif; 
}
add_action('x_after_view_global__slider-below','custom_landmark', 30);

If you’re not sure where to paste the code, just right under the:

// Additional Functions
// =============================================================================

Hope it helps, Cheers!
