1. Add, Remove or Change Order of Sections

[tolhuinfarmland]

Hi, this is Issue 1:

Id like my web to show this sections in the following order:

1. timeline
2. services
3. clients
4. contact
5. footer

And to remove altogether the sections "portfolio" and "teams".

But I had the following complications:

i) I can't rearrange the order of appearance of sections ii) I can't seem to remove a section (a blank space still exists)

What would be great to see:

A "section:" label to name a new section A "type:" label to add the the kind you choose (be it timeline/portfolio/services, etc.) An "order:" label to set the location from 1 to n The ability to remove sections by removing specifict parts.

Kind Regards

Unfortunately, because each section is different, they can't be built based on the site text order. Instead, you need a custom layout. This is the default layout:

---
layout: default
---
{% include navheader.html %}

{% include services.html %}
{% include portfolio_grid.html %}
{% include timeline.html %}
{% include team.html %}
{% include clients.html %}
{% include contact.html %}

In your repository, make a _layouts folder. Inside that folder, make an HTML with a name of your choosing, for example custom.html. Then, change the ordering as needed. For what you currently need, it should look like this:

---
layout: default
---
{% include navheader.html %}

{% include timeline.html %}
{% include services.html %}
{% include clients.html %}
{% include contact.html %}

This way, there's no need to delete any sitetext. You can keep everything for potential future use and customize the layout for you needs.

Thanks, this worked perfect. For anyone with the same issue, I had to change the index.md file as well as follows: layout: custom where custom is the name of the .html with the new ordering

That's right, forgot to mention the index.md change. Glad it worked!
