How do I move my navigation bar below my header banner in 7.1?

Is it possible to make this have an editable section, where you can add blocks of text, an image or even an email signup form?

I really like this example here: https://havilahcunnington.com/#home but can't figure out how to match this style.

The site you've linked is a Showit site (not a Squarespace site). There isn't a built in feature like this, but if you're familiar with JavaScript, you should be able to write some code that moves a page section above the header.

I am not familiar with Javascript. Is there a way to still do this with Squarespace?

Hello, 


I'm trying to add a section above the navigation that's similar to this website. The example is a Showit website, but I'm hoping there is a workaround for Squarespace too. I tried turning on the announcement bar, but it's really small for what I'm after.

I need this "above nav" section to have:

  • video background capabilities
  • text block; and
  • button functionalities.

 

Any help would greatly be appreciated!

Thank you!

I just solved a similar case, I used Section Loader plugin + some JS code

https://www.will-myers.com/products/p/section-loader-supreme

First add a Not Linked Page (with url: nav-menu), design your content

Next, install plugin

Next, add this code to Code Injection > Footer

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.7.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
  setTimeout( function() {
        	$('div.wm-load-container').insertBefore('header#header');
    }, 2000);
});
</script>

Next, add this code to Custom CSS

/* Add sticky header */
header#header {
    position: sticky !important;
  	position: -webkit-sticky !important;
    top: 0;
}
/* section above header */
.wm-load-container>section:first-child {
    display: none;
}
.wm-load-container .content-wrapper {
    padding: 0 !important;
    max-width: 100% !important;
}

Hello! I have been reading your comments for an hour or so, and it's amazing!

I would like to know how can I add text to the banner image? 

Which approach did you use to add banner? If you use my approach (above comment), just add Text Block over section

Hello all, I am trying to achieve the same thing as the original post (relocate header navigation below my header banner). I used the original code that was provided in the thread, but it is not working. I made sure to replace with beaverhero with my image URL.

Here is my website on the page I am trying to do this:

https://www.lucasano.com/home

And here is the code I inserted in the CSS under Home / Website Tools / Custom CSS:

/* Add a banner */
body.homepage div#siteWrapper:before {
    content: "";
    background-image: url(https://static1.squarespace.com/static/660dabf2c74e425529726520/t/661a73f4b369d36c1bd3199b/1713009653619/TEST_home-page.jpg);
    background-size: cover;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    display: block;
    width: 100%;
    height: 500px;
}
/* Add sticky header */
header#header {
    position: sticky !important;
    top: 0;
}

Thanks for your help!

Hi!

This chat has been so useful! I used the code to place an image above the navigation. It worked, but I don't want it on the other pages. How do I keep it on the main page only?

Thank you!
