Frontpage notes

Our evolving story section on the front page is being queried with the tag “featured”.  Any article written with the intention to be displayed on the front page needs to be tagged with that featured tag. The consumer is currently set on the first frame to one and on the second frame to one. However, the second frame can output more than one article. if there is a future need where one would want to display more articles Within our evolving story section of the front page. you would need to change the consumer on this second dynamic post frame or column To permit more consumption. and output.

The entire article output being displayed is wrapped in the html div tag fixed with an anchor tag and linked to the assigned single output layout so that the entire container serves as a button link with a mouseover listener (revealing the box shadow when hovering) linking to the single post output layout constructed in cornerstone and entitled “PM front page redesign” as of of this moment it is the only single post layout contained in the back-end and will serve as the backbone for our single layouts throughout the website.

The height of the container is determined by which of the two columns with the end the div is greater. The intention is that the image height. would be greater than the textual content. The columns are using flexbox and set to vertically center the content therein. It is our intention that the image set the height of the container. determining the layout in such a manner, it will be. necessary to examine these. aspects of the layout in responsive sense. on smaller devices. As of this moment. the single page, the single. post layout. asks for a more horizontal image. to which we will determine actual aspect ratio sizes. and so consequently requires a crop of that image. that would be more vertical in its presentation This has been accommodated. for by introducing a custom image input. field on the back end of the WordPress site. and incorporated into the query. and incorporated into the layout. when we burrow down into the single column layout for our smaller devices. I should understand the break point on that. Let me give me a second – 767. pixels. is where we break down into a single column layout. We would need to crop a minimum width. of 700 pixels. Perhaps we just set that image as a square. 700 by 700

Minimum requirements for submission of. an article post would be. one image and text. along with a summary we call that an excerpt that would be presented on the front end. Ideally, the single image presented in the submission should be a minimum of 1920 pixels. Ideally, 2400 pixels. of which one crop possibly. two will be made.
