Is there a standard way in Xtreme I can create a single full screen front page image which is clickable anywhere? That front page will then link to the home page of a site in development. My only effort so far is to create a draft page, use the Xtreme per page options to omit pretty much everything then set the featured image as the background image. It looks just as I want but I can’t see how to add a url to the image to link to the home page.
Thank you.
I assume you meant using the raw page template.
For the link, you could probably create a small transparent (.png) image, then add that image in the page with a link and a 100% 100% size using 100vw and 100vh (Viewer width and height CSS) (see below)
The html for the transparent image link would look like
<a href="LinkUrl" ><img src="ImageUrl" style="width:100vw;height:100vh;" /></a>
Thanks for this. Armed with your code I was able to achieve what I wanted without needing to use the transparent png. Using the raw template (I hadn’t done this, I was using my normal template and using per page to omit everything). Then instead of the featured image I put a SiteOrigin html widget on the page and added your code using the required full screen image as my source and linking to the home page. It works just as I hoped so thank you.
By the way, this front page is for the site about which I asked for your advice and we had a brief discussion about the merits of subdomains and subfolders. At the same time I was experimenting with the per page options in Xtreme. I found that I could achieve what I wanted by switching off much of the main site layout and using 1 or 2 per page layout widgets. There aren’t many pages in the site and half of those are similar. So I set up my per page options and cloned the page a few times to get me started.I mention all of this because I have strong reasons to be very grateful for the extensive per page options and overall flexibility of Xtreme.
