    I’ve tried a couple ways to design a Homepage Banner that includes an image on the left and text-block on the right. My goal is to have the text-block at centered height and overlapping the image a little. I’m trying with two columns set at individual height, but I’m unable to change the height on the column with the text block. Here is an example site that I’m trying to recreate the Homepage Banner: https://fahrenkampministries.com/.

    Below is a link to my website and login credentials if needed.

    I would appreciate any guidance on how to accomplish this. Thank you!!!

    Best Regards,

    UPDATE:

    I found an article on the Enfold forum titled: “Overlap Columns/Elements” that is a lot like what I’m trying to accomplish, but unfortunately, I don’t fully understand how to execute it.

    Any help with interpreting this for me would be appreciated. Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    Thanks for the login to your site, first I moved your two columns into a color section and gave it a custom ID homepage-banner then I gave your green box a custom class green-box the in the first column with the image in the Row Layout field I choose No Space Between Columns so the green box column would be right next to the image column.
    Then I added this css to your Quick CSS to vertically center your green box column and overlay it on the image column:

    #homepage-banner + #after_section_1.container_wrap {
    	 border-top-style: none;
    }
    #homepage-banner main.content {
    	 padding: 0;
    }
    #homepage-banner .entry-content-wrapper {
    	display: flex;
        align-items: center;
    }
    #homepage-banner .green-box {
    	left: -5vw;
        z-index: 1;
    }

    I also removed the padding from the special heading EQUIPPING CLASSES below the two columns because it seemed like too much.

    Mike,
    Thank you for your assistance and the detailed explanation…very helpful.
    It looks good on my desktop, however, on my iPhone 14 it looks like this.

    Is there a way to have the green box displayed under the image on mobile phones?

    Thanks again for your help.

    Hi Julio,

    Please try to add this CSS code as well:

    @media only screen and (max-width:479px) {
      #homepage-banner main.content {
        padding-top: 20px;
      }
    
      #homepage-banner .entry-content-wrapper {
        flex-direction: column;
      }
    
      #homepage-banner .green-box {
        left: 0;
      }
    }

    Hope it helps.

    Best regards,

    Nikko,
    Works perfect. Thanks to you and Mike for your assistance. One more question please, how can I make the two columns take up 100% of the page width? I know the Color Section by default is a full-width element and always takes 100% width of the page container. However, with the overlapping columns, it’s not clear to me on how to achieve full page width. Thanks to anyone that can help me with this.

    Best Regards,
    Julio

    Hi,
    Try this css:

    .responsive #top #homepage-banner > .container {
    	max-width: 100%;
    	padding: 0;
    }
    #homepage-banner .av_two_third .avia-image-container-inner,
    #homepage-banner .av_two_third .avia-image-container-inner img {
    	width: 100%;
    }

    Please ensure to copy the code from the forum and not an email notification so the symbols are not converted.
    After applying the css, please clear your browser cache and check.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Mike,
    Thanks for your response. I’ve added the CSS, but it appears to have distorted the sizes for two columns.
    I was hoping that by going full-page width, it would look more like this homepage banner: https://fahrenkampministries.com/

    Hope this makes sense. Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. THANK YOU!

    Best Regards,
    Julio

    Hi,
    Thanks for the feedback, I disabled the above css for now and to ensure that I am understanding correctly, when I look at the example page I see that the header image and overlay text box is not 100% of the page, but it is 100% of the content area, leaving a margin on both sides, note that the overlay box comes to the edge of the content area:
    Enfold_Support_1891.jpeg
    With the above css removed your header image is to the left edge of the page content area, but the overlay box doesn’t extend to the right edge of the content area, so we only need to make the overlay box bigger, correct?
    Enfold_Support_1889.jpeg
    If so I got pretty close by changing the coluoms to 4/5 & 2/5 and using this css:

    #homepage-banner .green-box {
    	left: -15vw;
        z-index: 1;
    }
    .responsive #top #homepage-banner > .container {
    	max-width: 100%;
    	padding: 0;
    }
    
    #homepage-banner .avia-image-container .avia-image-container-inner img {
    	width: 100%;
    	right: -5vw;
    }

    try clearing your browser cache and see if this is closer, and try fine tuning the css to suit.

    Best regards,

    Mike,

    Desktop view looks pretty good. I noticed that the changes made threw off the mobile layout a little. Here is a screenshot. It appears to have gone back to the layout before I added the CSS that Nikko recommended in the above thread.

    Hi,
    Glad to hear this helped, to remove this from the mobile view, try wrapping the code in a media query @media only screen and (min-width: 767px) { ... } like this:

    @media only screen and (min-width: 767px) { 
    #homepage-banner .green-box {
    	left: -15vw;
        z-index: 1;
    }
    .responsive #top #homepage-banner > .container {
    	max-width: 100%;
    	padding: 0;
    }
    
    #homepage-banner .avia-image-container .avia-image-container-inner img {
    	width: 100%;
    	right: -5vw;
    }
    }

    the (min-width: 767px) means it won’t work until at least 767px, you could change this to 1024px, 1440px or any other minimum screen size that you wish.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Mike,
    Looks very good on the desktop. Your assumption is correct: “header image and overlay text box is not 100% of the page, but it is 100% of the content area”, I only need it to be 100% of the content area.

    With the above css removed your header image is to the left edge of the page content area, but the overlay box doesn’t extend to the right edge of the content area, so we only need to make the overlay box bigger, correct?

    When I look at the Header Banner image and text box both ends appear to exceed the content area below under “EQUIPPING CLASSES” and the three images. Can we align the Header Banner (image + text box) with the content below or does the content below need to be changed to take up 100% of the content area?

    It appears the mobile layout has gone back to the way it was before I added the CSS that Nikko recommended in the above thread. Here is a screenshot.

    Home-2-0-Error

    How can we correct the desktop and mobile views?
    Thank you so much!

    Best Regards,

    Here is the CSS that I have in place under “Quick CSS”:

    /* Overlap Columns - Homepage Banner (Desktop) */
    #homepage-banner + #after_section_1.container_wrap {
    	 border-top-style: none;
    }
    #homepage-banner main.content {
    	 padding: 0;
    }
    #homepage-banner .entry-content-wrapper {
    	display: flex;
        align-items: center;
    }
    #homepage-banner .green-box {
    	left: -5vw;
        z-index: 1;
    }
    
    /* Overlap Columns - Homepage Banner (Mobile) */
    @media only screen and (min-width: 767px) { 
    #homepage-banner .green-box {
    	left: -15vw;
        z-index: 1;
    }
    .responsive #top #homepage-banner > .container {
    	max-width: 100%;
    	padding: 0;
    }
    
    #homepage-banner .avia-image-container .avia-image-container-inner img {
    	width: 100%;
    	right: -5vw;
    }
    }

    Here is the CSS that Nikko suggested that corrected the mobile layout originally. However, as you can see, I replaced Nikko’s CSS with the recent one that Mike suggested. As you can imagine, I’m starting to get a little confused here … LOL. I truly appreciate the help provided!

    @media only screen and (max-width:479px) {
      #homepage-banner main.content {
        padding-top: 20px;
      }
    
      #homepage-banner .entry-content-wrapper {
        flex-direction: column;
      }
    
      #homepage-banner .green-box {
        left: 0;
      }
    }

    In all of this CSS, what changes can be made for the “slight” correction to the desktop layout and to fix the mobile layout?

    Here is the outcome that I’m hoping to achieve:

    Desktop Layout

    Mobile Layout

    Please let me know if you have any clarifying questions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
