    Hello, I recently discovered Generateblocks (like yesterday) and I like the simplicity of its use. I’ve been wanting to make an update to my homepage and Generateblocks has the ability for me to do this easily. I want to keep my format the same, but change the background image and wording. Please advise on how I can accomplish this task.

    Example
    https://imgur.com/a/ZtHkORy (The top image is what I currently have and the bottom image crated with GB is what I would like to convert to.)

    Thank you,

    DJ

    Hi there,

    Try this:

    – Create a Container block that holds the background image.
    https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/container-overview/

    – Add a grid wrapper/block inside that container and set it to like 50% or whatever you want which will hold the headline/text.

    – Add a headline block inside the container block of the grid.

    Hey Leo, Just so that I’m clear. Am I to follow the steps you suggested on my home page?

    Thanks DJ

    Hi there,

    is your Home page a static page or is it displaying the Latest posts ?

    Hello David, My page displays my latest posts and I currently use Beaver Builder. I like the setup of my page, I would just like to change the image header to resemble the image in my first post, but also be easily to manipulate the wording and picture as Generateblocks allows me to do. Is this possible since I’m already using Beave Builder? Do you need access to my site view my setup?

    A link to your site should help.

    You can use the private URL field.

    So just to confirm, the home page content is currently built with Beaver Builder, and your goal is to replace everything with GenerateBlocks so that you don’t have to use Beaver Builder anymore?

    Yes I would like to do that. My concern is will the layout(the look and feel) of my site remain the same on all pages and post?

    You should be able to use GB to replicate the site no problem.

    The latest articles section would require a plugin like WP Show Posts:
    https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-show-posts/

    And parallax requires a script currently:
