1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,350 Now that we've built the headers and footers, 2 00:00:03,345 --> 00:00:06,275 it is now time for us to build our homepage. 3 00:00:06,270 --> 00:00:07,740 And the very first section we're gonna 4 00:00:07,740 --> 00:00:10,890 be building will be the banner you can see 5 00:00:10,890 --> 00:00:13,110 right here we have the background image 6 00:00:13,110 --> 00:00:15,680 with the tropical trees, 7 00:00:15,675 --> 00:00:17,405 palm trees and the beach. 8 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:19,170 And then of course, the texts, 9 00:00:19,165 --> 00:00:21,415 we're traveling with adventure and then 10 00:00:21,410 --> 00:00:24,770 the button that says our book, your trip now. 11 00:00:24,770 --> 00:00:27,320 Also, of course, you would have noticed that 12 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:31,220 the background basically blends into the header. 13 00:00:31,220 --> 00:00:32,450 How do we do that? 14 00:00:32,450 --> 00:00:33,920 Well, we're going to go ahead 15 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,040 and go to edit the homepage. 16 00:00:36,035 --> 00:00:38,855 I'm gonna say Edit with Elementor. 17 00:00:38,855 --> 00:00:40,135 Right here. 18 00:00:40,130 --> 00:00:43,010 You can notice that we have basically two columns, 19 00:00:43,010 --> 00:00:44,360 one on top, the one that 20 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,240 contains where traveled means adventure. 21 00:00:46,235 --> 00:00:47,695 And then we'll have another column 22 00:00:47,690 --> 00:00:49,490 containing the button book, your trip. 23 00:00:49,490 --> 00:00:53,440 Now, what I'm simply gonna do here is this. 24 00:00:53,435 --> 00:00:56,965 We do have a heading text in here, 25 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,700 but just in case you don't see anything, 26 00:00:58,700 --> 00:01:01,460 just simply drag the heading element 27 00:01:01,460 --> 00:01:04,160 and drop it inside your box right here. 28 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,560 And I'm simply going to say 29 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:15,740 where we're travel meets adventure. 30 00:01:15,740 --> 00:01:19,010 That is the major tagline for All website. 31 00:01:19,010 --> 00:01:21,770 And I'm gonna make this one on one. 32 00:01:21,770 --> 00:01:23,780 But we're going to make some changes to 33 00:01:23,780 --> 00:01:27,110 the actual topography itself. 34 00:01:27,110 --> 00:01:29,350 So let's go to style. 35 00:01:29,345 --> 00:01:31,985 And for the typography in here, 36 00:01:31,985 --> 00:01:37,505 I am going to change the transform to uppercase. 37 00:01:37,505 --> 00:01:39,265 And we're also going to make the weight 38 00:01:39,260 --> 00:01:42,730 900 just to make it a very, very thick. 39 00:01:42,725 --> 00:01:47,435 And then the style will make it italic as well. 40 00:01:47,435 --> 00:01:49,775 That's that for the text for now. 41 00:01:49,775 --> 00:01:51,295 Let's go ahead now and add 42 00:01:51,290 --> 00:01:54,290 the background image for this section. 43 00:01:54,290 --> 00:01:57,070 So I'm gonna click on the edit section button right here. 44 00:01:57,065 --> 00:01:59,645 The content width, we're going to keep this one box, 45 00:01:59,645 --> 00:02:04,925 but then the width here we'll do 1240 pixels. 46 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,400 And our checklist advocate for the height, 47 00:02:09,395 --> 00:02:13,355 we're gonna set it to a minimum height of 48 00:02:13,355 --> 00:02:15,985 a thousand pixels because we really wanted to 49 00:02:15,980 --> 00:02:18,980 show as much of that background image as possible. 50 00:02:18,980 --> 00:02:21,860 So let me make this 1 thousand. 51 00:02:21,860 --> 00:02:24,230 And now we're gonna go over to 52 00:02:24,230 --> 00:02:27,280 style, background type classic. 53 00:02:27,275 --> 00:02:29,435 And I'm going to choose the image. 54 00:02:29,435 --> 00:02:32,095 And it's going to be, I do apologize. 55 00:02:32,090 --> 00:02:35,170 Actually do have two separate ones in here for now. 56 00:02:35,165 --> 00:02:37,715 I will delete the woman are going to use, 57 00:02:37,715 --> 00:02:39,625 we're going to use the big out version. 58 00:02:39,620 --> 00:02:42,080 This one is just 859 pixels in height, 59 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,330 but this one is 1274. 60 00:02:44,330 --> 00:02:46,160 So we're gonna make use of this one. 61 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,870 So I'm going to insert that. 62 00:02:47,870 --> 00:02:49,610 And there you go. 63 00:02:49,610 --> 00:02:51,500 Now, let me show you some tricks regarding 64 00:02:51,500 --> 00:02:54,730 positioning your background image. 65 00:02:54,725 --> 00:02:56,425 You've got different kinds of 66 00:02:56,420 --> 00:02:58,460 positions in center, center, 67 00:02:58,460 --> 00:03:02,420 center left, center, right, and so on. 68 00:03:02,420 --> 00:03:04,690 So it's really up to you to choose 69 00:03:04,685 --> 00:03:09,635 the ideal angles of position for your background image. 70 00:03:09,635 --> 00:03:13,475 Mine here that I've chosen is going to be bottom center. 71 00:03:13,475 --> 00:03:16,285 Here you get to actually see the palm trees, 72 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,200 the beach as well. 73 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,440 So it's familiar is the best position. 74 00:03:20,435 --> 00:03:22,045 And then for the size, 75 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,510 you do have several options in 76 00:03:23,510 --> 00:03:25,400 here I'm gonna go with cava. 77 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,100 The difference between Kovach and contain is 78 00:03:28,100 --> 00:03:31,730 the containable show the entire image. 79 00:03:31,730 --> 00:03:34,070 Content isn't always the best option 80 00:03:34,070 --> 00:03:37,130 because when you show the entire image, 81 00:03:37,130 --> 00:03:40,810 if the image isn't big enough for the entire screen, 82 00:03:40,805 --> 00:03:42,265 it will start to repeated study. 83 00:03:42,260 --> 00:03:44,150 You can see in the background here you kind 84 00:03:44,150 --> 00:03:46,280 of have the image repeating itself all over again. 85 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,400 But with COVID, you basically, 86 00:03:48,395 --> 00:03:49,765 you're basically saying, Hey, 87 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,800 try to ensure that the image 88 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,820 will cover the entire screen. 89 00:03:53,820 --> 00:03:56,770 That's why I've chosen are covered here, 90 00:03:56,765 --> 00:03:59,375 but also going to 91 00:03:59,375 --> 00:04:03,475 add a background overlay.
