Landing page / front page help needed
3 replies · Started by Fredrik on November 1, 2020
Brand new to GP here. I have searched around for the answer to my question before posting this though.
I love the speed and in general how clean it looks, but I fast discovered that I'm pretty much lost when it comes to creating a landing page for the front page. Usually, there are some kinds of templates to work with, but I don't want to import a complete set of pages from the site library. I just need a lander for the front page.
Please help me create something simple like this:
https:// khrisdigital.com
https:// www. wpglossy.com
P.S.
I don't want to install Elementor or other page builders, because they will create extra bloat code globally on my site.
I don't know how to code this manually.
Hi there,
you can use the GenerateBlocks (GB) plugin - it is a zero bloat block plugin that only adds the HTML and CSS it requires:

We recommend that you enable the Full Width page builder container:

Then construct your page using the GB Container Block.
For displaying lists of posts you can use the WP Show Post plugin:
Fantastic answer David! Those two plugins where what I'm looking for.
Glad to be of help!
