I’ve been trying to figure this out this week too @dinamicorre.
Due to the WP hierarchy of files, the Front Page Template will override anything else.
The way I’ve ended up doing it (because I don’t want to go digging into code) is to create a backup of the Front Page design as a new page, and then edit the Front Page Template directly by copy-pasting what I already designed on my custom home page.
I’ve not used to Wonder Blocks yet (I’m starting very simple to begin with!) but if I spot anything that helps as I work my way through all the features, I’ll share my discoveries ✌🏽
To overwrite the front page this currently is the best way:
Create a new page (Pages > Add New) 1. Under summary set Template to “Page (without title)” 2. Add patterns and modify the content as needed
Set the page as Homepage (Settings > Reading > Your homepage displays)
Open the front page template (Appearance > Editor > Templates > Front Page) 1. Backup the content (if needed) 2. Delete all blocks/content 3. Add pattern “Front page (inherits homepage content)” (+ button > Patterns > Enter name inside the search) 4. View your homepage
Is there any chance that the answer above doesn’t work?
I’ve tryed many times and when I delete the original template in the editor and create a new one with the pattern, this once again predominates over the one I created in NEW PAGES based on patterns.
Steps 1. and 2. I think they work fine for me. They are easy to do and I don’t see any opportunity for failure there.
It is in point 3. where I see the most possibility of error. Let me explain: At this point (3) I delete the frontpage template adding then the pattern you’ve designed for Front Page, and saving changes.
Then I return to see the live site and the model page that can be seen in patterns continues to appear. Not the one I’ve designed in step 1.2. Maybe this is where I don’t quite understand your instructions.
Can you please confirm that in the Site Editor > Front Page template, you have only three blocks: header, content, and footer? Also have you created a page with some content that is now set as the front page?
Also have you created a page with some content that is now set as the front page?
Yes, I did. Anycase, I think now its working. I think I didn’t add the template atribute right in the first instance. Now it is (as you can see below).
