A follow question as well? Linking inside to content and pages - have you all had any luck with comslider? I hit this question in another thread, but I figure to cover my bases.

I am serving it up pretty successfully on page without a problem.

If you are using comslider, remember that it is not actually part of the page you are on, so it is as if linking form a different website, you need to use full links.

@Adam Ballhaussen - are there any plans to provide “template” home pages that could include a slider like this at the top?  There are plenty of us that would love to use this but at the same time have zero skills in making this happen or fixing issues that could come up.  Having a widget or a home template page that includes several different set ups that other users have would be a great way for many of us to use what others have done in an easy way.

@pcarr - hey good morning/afternoon.

There are examples all over in the community - but there is a set of template pages that are out there that is available as part of the product. I often rush by it quickly….but when you go to build a page, you can take on one of three to four templates.

That said, I think as a widget that is internal to the platform? Something like this is “necessary” and “overdue”.

Not really. 🙄

With css only sliders growing in popularity, maybe it will become more of a non-issue.

Except you lose some potential that way unfortunately….i.e. same code loaded onto all home pages, but based on page URL, different content displayed which is stored centrally and can be scheduled. (I do this with a bunch of courses currently for frequently updated content and am working on one for a slider so that groups of people can manage and update the content via a Sharepoint list without Admin access to Docebo and without needing to edit 20 homepages)

This looks so good! how did you do those smaller icons on the top bar? (assuming they are clickable)

Hi @reanneh,

Yes, the buttons are clickable as they lead one to respective internal pages. 

I am sharing with you the page that is really the holy grail for the community. There is help for the buttons you talk about, accordian (FAQs), and Sliders. Besides to place 2 and 2 together, the community pals have directed me to page design resources Course on Docebo Univeristy. Basics of html and css come handy.

Link to the post which serves as inspiration for many.

 If you need any help please feel free to ask.
