HI, WELCOME TO HARPER TEMPLATE PAGE.
If you follow the instructions, you’ll end up with a design that resembles the demo. I recommend having the demo opened in a different tab and use it as a reference.
CHANGELOG
Version: 1.0.0
Release date: August 2017
LET’S START!
1. INSTALLATION
Go to THEME > Click on the three dots at the right > Restore > Upload the .xml file.
2. MENU SETUP
Go to LAYOUT > MENU > EDIT.
In the NEW SITE NAME field, add the title you want to appear on the menu (e.g. HOME). In the NEW SITE URL field, add the page URL, don’t forget to add the HTTP:// prefix. Click on ADD LINK.
To create a drop-down menu, add the parent item name, in the URL field add a hashtag (#). To create the child item, add an underscore (_) before the title name and add the page URL, make sure the child items are placed under the parent item, see example below:
I recommend starting backward so you don’t have to move all items once you’re done, otherwise, you’ll have to use the arrows to rearrange them.
When you’re happy with the end result, SAVE changes.
3. SLIDER CAROUSEL
The slider carousel will show six selected featured posts, to select these posts you have to add the Featured label to each one of them. Labels are case sensitive, make sure only the F is upper case.
