Editing Your Homepage

We're often asked "Where do I find my homepage to make edits?" or " Help! I can't find my homepage item!"

Unlike most pages, your homepage isn't an item or a category, It is usually composed of various components and modules. Review these articles for guidance.

There are many nuances and variations with how the hero image space is managed on your website. They are set at a specific size and ratio, they may be designed with text that is set to behave in a specific way, we take your top menu and navigation into consideration when they're created, and they are set up with considerations for desktop and mobile performance.

Please contact Third Sun Support at support@thirdsun.com with your specific request, i.e. If you have different copy or a new image you'd like to have on your homepage hero. Please include any image attachments or specific details in your email. Remember: these images are the first thing many people see when visiting your site and they need to be large enough to be seen clearly and best represent your organization. If you're not sure, please err on the side of an image that may seem too big. We can resize an image down, but they can't be resized to be larger.

Items displayed on your homepage are likely managed in one of two ways:

1. News Category

As you add Items to your News* Category and publish them, they appear on the homepage in chronological order based on published date. (See Edit Items and Categories for more information.)
*The Category may be called something else like "Blog" or "Updates" but it will be whichever category is set up to contain your latest news.

or

2. Featured

Some sites are set up so that choose which Items are Featured on the homepage. Then the Items display on your homepage based on Featured being on or off. Sometimes this is set up to be Category-specific.


FeaturedNews

If you aren't sure how content is arriving on your homepage, check your News Category or see if you have Featured items. If you need help please email us.
