Design the hero area & banner
Updated on 15.07.2026
The hero is the large area at the very top of your homepage. You decide its layout, images and text — and place an eye-catching, rotated banner over it that may even overhang the bottom edge. A live preview shows every change instantly.
Choose a layout
Pick a hero layout: full width, or a split view (50/50, 30/70 or 70/30) with text on one side and an image on the other.
Set the content
For each part, decide whether it shows text or an image. Text comes with an editor for headings, bold, links and font sizes; alternatively you use your community default text.
Add images & a slideshow
Upload one or several images. With multiple images a slideshow is created automatically that can advance on its own or be controlled manually — as a background or inside a part.
Enable & position the banner
Enable the rotatable banner, enter a title and subtitle, and set rotation, position (horizontal/vertical), size and colors. At 100% vertical position it sits centred on the hero bottom edge.
Check the preview & save
Review the preview and click “Save appearance”. The banner appears on your homepage over the hero area.
The rotated banner
The banner is an eye-catching, rotated “sticker” over the hero — like a stuck-on sign. Here is how to use it:
- Title (bold) and an optional subtitle across two lines
- Rotation continuously from -30° to +30°
- Freely positionable via horizontal and vertical position — even past the bottom edge
- Background and text color freely chosen or matched to the theme
What you can adjust in the hero
- Layout: full width or a split view (50/50, 30/70, 70/30)
- Text or image per part — text with headings, links & font sizes
- One or several images as an automatic or manual slideshow
- Background image with dimming plus heading and button style
- Visible homepage sections (stats, featured, how it works)
- Rotatable banner with title, subtitle, rotation, position, size and colors
Common questions
I cannot see my banner
Check that the banner is enabled and has a title or subtitle, and that you saved. The banner only appears on the homepage over the hero area.
The banner overlaps other content
Lower the vertical position (e.g. to 90%) or the size so it extends less far past the bottom edge.
The banner text is hard to read
Choose a text color with clear contrast against the background — for example dark text on a light background or vice versa.
