Every day new HTML, CSS, and JavaScript tutorials are posted to the growing Solodev Web Design Blog! Here is a list of what was added the week of January 23rd!
Adding Sectional Tabs to your Homepage
Creating quality sectional content is essential to showcasing your service or product. Occasionally, however, design limitations can impact how much space you can afford to this necessary content. One solution is to include everything within separate tabs. This approach allows you to drastically increase the amount of content you include on a page while allowing you to work with, rather than against, your design.
Creating a Latest News Module in Solodev
Displaying your site’s latest news is a reliable method to connect to and keep your audience informed. By showcasing your latest news posts, you can significantly increase engagement and help highlight the specific pieces of information you emphasized. Your custom display module will only be as effective as the content you showcase. In this vein, it’s essential that your latest news display is kept up-to-date. The best way to ensure timely news items are displayed is to make your section is fully dynamic.
How to Add a Slide Down Menu to your Nav
Contemporary website design affords only so much space to your website navigation. A slide down menu allows you to provide the option for more in-depth navigation options. By simply clicking a button, your top nav gives way to a more granular view of your website's navigation. Otherwise, your navigation is hidden which gives users a clear and unencumbered path to page content.
Adding an Industry Section to your Homepage
There's no better marketing than targeting content to the right audience. Adding an industries section to your homepage allows you to serve up the right content to the right visitor. You may an offering of products and services that have different uses for different industries and informing your website visitors of that is crucial.
