Intro Gradient
Use the intro-plugin to attach a gradient as introduction to the page.
The page intro plugin allows you to add an image, color or gradient as an introduction at the top of the page. The intro can display behind- or below the menu, at any height, and you can include page context items. In this example, we have set a gradient to display at 300px height, below the menu.
Simply add gradients directly to the source field in your page › plugins › page intro plugin. Read more about CSS3 gradients here and here. * Add CSS gradients without browser prefixes!
Options
Source
Set the source of the intro as either an image, gradient or solid color.
Show in Intro
Choose to show title, description and content within the intro area.
Height
Set the height of the intro area in px or %. If disabled, height will automatically adjust to size of image. You should always use a height for gradients, colors and repeating background patterns.
Fixed
Creates a cool effect where the background image remains fixed when scrolling.
Overlay Menu
When enabled, menu will overlay the intro, which is attached to top of page. When disabled, the intro is attached below the menu.
