If you have confidence in changing true to false and vice versa in the following image, you can customize the layout of your theme even further:
- Go to Theme → Files → layout.html.
- Find these variable declarations (as of the time of writing this, they begin on line 76, but that could change slightly by the time you read this).
- Change whatever you like.
- Apply any changes you make in layout.html to layout_protected.html and splash.html. If you change show_subpage_excerpt or show_homepage_excerpt, replicate the changes in _nm-partial-content-hero.html as well. The variable declarations are easy to find at the very top.
NOTE: The variable show_homepage_excerpt has a value of show_subpage_excerpt. This just means it's inheriting whatever value show_subpage_excerpt has. You can change this to true or false if you don't want those values connected.
Here's what the variables do:
social_sign_in: Displays the Facebook and Twitter sign up buttons on the default homepage signup form and the default sidebar signup form.
show_supporter_status: Displays a logged-in user's supporter status checklist in the sidebar.
nm_breadcrumbs: Displays breadcrumbs and share buttons right below a page's hero section. Also hides the page's parent page link that would normally appear above a subpage's headline, as this becomes redundant with the breadcrumbs.
sidebar_left: Moves the default sidebar to the left side of pages. The default is on the right.
secondary_nav: Displays a small bar above the main top navigation bar that has social buttons and user account links.
wide_secondary_nav: Makes the content in the secondary_nav full width instead of slightly less (like in the above image). Usually, you do not need to worry about this variable unless you're using a top navigation bar that is itself full width. In this case, you will most likely have purchased a theme where the variable will already have the correct value, so you won't need to touch it.
footer_img_social: If your site has Facebook and/or Twitter connected, it will display these on top of the footer image.
show_subpage_excerpt: Displays a page's Settings → Social media → Excerpt for Facebook, search engines in the hero section of all page's but the home page (show_homepage_excerpt below handles the homepage).
VERY IMPORTANT: If you change this variable, you also need to go into Theme → Files → _nm-partial-content-hero.html and change it there too. It's easy to find at the very top.
show_homepage_excerpt: Displays the home page's Settings → Social media → Excerpt for Facebook, search engines in the hero section. By default, this value inherits from show_subpage_excerpt's variable.
VERY IMPORTANT: If you change this variable, you also need to go into Theme → Files → _nm-partial-content-hero.html and change it there too. It's easy to find at the very top.
