How to create a site like this?
5 replies · Started by Mark on May 4, 2021
1. I like your new site :)
2. I have a site at generatepress.michianait.net and would like to create this type of site: http://www.charliewaite.me
Can I create this kind of site (seems like a fixed left column and a one-page site in the right hand column) with GP premium and Elementor (free or Pro)?
Thanks,
Mark
Hi Mark,
By using GP Premium, Generateblocks, and a little bit CSS, you'll be able to create a page like this easily :)

I built this structure in 5 min:

The structure I'm using is as below:

Let me know if you have any questions in building it in the future :)
Do you think the same thing can be done with Elementor/Generatepress?

Hi there,
Sure you can but as to how it's done with Elementor, you'll have to ask its support.
Elementor is a third-party plugin. It's outside of our scope of support, unfortunately.
Hi Ying/Elvin
Thanks for getting back to me. I understand how the site you built with generateblocks works, but I don't understand how you would build a menu structure to go to the different colored blocks you have there, making a one-page website. Do you need another plugin?
Thanks
Mark
We can use html anchor and GP built in smooth-scroll class:
Here's a demo video:
