Add new section/ page

Hello,

I’m pretty sure I’m missing something obvious but am going round-and-round in circles trying to figure it out!

I trying to set up a static homepage with about 5 sections, using intergalactic theme: http://test.zedonk.net/

As you can see I’ve added a background image and changed text in header section but can’t figure out how to do same for hello world ‘section’ (page? post?) below. Or, indeed, how to add 3-4 other ‘sections’ below that.

Once I’ve got that licked, all I’ll need for a happy life is to change font, change text to lower case, and upload a image logo in place of header text. But one thing at a time!

Any pointers very gratefully received.

Best wishes,

Matt

Hi Zedonk
Try this first

Put this code to your child theme style.css file

or get free plugin Simple Custome CSS

and put this custome css to plugins editing area
```
.blog .hentry, .archive .hentry, .search .hentry {
    background-color: #222;
}

OR

.blog .hentry, .archive .hentry, .search .hentry {
    background-color: #222!important;
}
```
instead of background-color you can use background-image element

SEE: background-image

OK for now
Let me know if it is working and request another part to tweak
Cheers

NOTE:
instead of #222 use any color you want red blue or #456789

……and here is a discusion about your Theme and adding sections:

Where are you wanting to add these sections? The normal main page of Intergalactic is designed to show posts, not page content.

Hope this will clear you up.

Thanks TR! That was quick!

To be completely frank: eeeek!!! This is day 1 using WordPress for me and what i thought would involve a template and adding content has quite quickly become editing CSS code, creating child themes etc. No I dunno if I have the right theme for what i’m trying to achieve, or need to up-skill.

Thanks again,

Matt

…..maybe before you start to put some content to new pages, thing agai what you want to achive and compare some themes for couple of days.

I personnally use Responsive Theme and with my eperience can achive any layout I want.
It is just engine for me. Rst is tweaking and playing theme shape and so on…
