Usage ----- [](#usage) There are multiple features to create root-page aware content. ### Create articles in the root page [](#create-articles-in-the-root-page) The extension allows to create articles in the root page. Here's how it works: 1. Edit your **theme** and add custom content sections. Each theme can have multiple sections with root content. 2. Add an article to a root page. Contrary to regular articles, you cannot enter a name but select one of the sections from your theme. 3. Create a root-content module in your theme and select the section you want to output. 4. Place the new module anywhere in your page layout. ### Limit front end modules per root page [](#limit-front-end-modules-per-root-page) For each front end module, there is a new setting to limit it for one or multiple root pages. This way you can create language-aware modules. Simply place all of them in your page layout and only the respective ones will be rendered one at a time. ### `` css class per root page [](#body-css-class-per-root-page) Add css classes to the root page and they will be inherited through all pages. ### Health Score 51 — FairBetter than 95% of packages Maintenance69 Regular maintenance activity Popularity26 Limited adoption so far Community15 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity80 Battle-tested with a long release history Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 88.2% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
