[Resolved] Moving Page Headers to Elements – Home page header is not working

[Tanya]

Hi,

First of all, thanks for the latest updates on Header and Hooks management interface. It’s lovely!

I moved all of my headers to the new Elements structure. All work perfectly, except one – the home page. Not sure what the difference is. Page settings are exactly the same as everywhere else.

I expected home page header (https://dev.gritmatch.com/) to look the same as in other pages – try navigating to two registration pages in the top menu or to “Contact us” link in the footer to see examples of headers that look correct.

Thanks!

Hi there,

It doesn’t look like a Header Element is active on the front page.

Do you have an Element set to “Front Page”?

Let me know 🙂

Hi Tom,
I have an element type Header with Display Rule set to Location > Page > Home where “Home” is this page https://dev.gritmatch.com/.
I tried removing Featured image and adding it again to the page or setting up fallback image for the header. Did not work. Somehow this page is different. I can’t see how.

Try setting “Front Page” instead of choosing the actual “Home” page in Display Rules.

Oh, I see. Now it works. I was looking for Front Page under Location > Page > and did not see it. But it is actually in the 1-st drop-down.

Thanks Tom! And again, great re-design 🙂

That can definitely be a little confusing – we’re looking into a fix 🙂

Glad you like it!
