The Headliner 3 and headliner 4 themes are available from Gary Byrd at rapidweaverthemes.

In these themes, the extraContent area 5 inserts content over a portion of the header image. This does not play nicely with our BannerZest banner.

The instructions are the same for both themes and are as follows:

Make your Bannerzest banner the same width as the page width you select in the Styles menu and exactly 180 px tall.

Publish the site and reveal the HTML

Publish the Bannerzest theme to its place on your server and select "Show HTML" (see Publish at right)




Copy Bannerzest's code to the clipboard

When you click this button, you'll be presented with another window (see Copy at right)






Use Textwrangler to open index.html
TextWrangler

Now we have the necessary code copied to our clipboard. This theme allows us two methods for inserting the necessary code.

The final step is to open the theme's index.html file with the text editor you've selected and paste the code in the correct location. To open this file, right click the theme in Rapidweaver's theme drawer, choose " Reveal Theme Contents In Finder...". This will present you with a folder called "Contents". Open it and you will find the index.html file. Right click on this file and navigate to your chosen text editor application. In this example I chose TextWrangler. (see Textwrangler at right)

Paste here


Scroll through the code until you find a place that matches that shown in the photo (see Paste here at right) The code you copied from Bannerzest is still on your clipboard. You want to paste it in the right spot. Place your cursor right after the pageHeader div and paste in the code from Bannerzest by either choosing edit>Paste from TextWrangler's menu or simply by pressing the Apple-v key combination (command-v). Now that your code is inserted, save the file and view the results. NOTE: Do not enable extraContent area 5 just yet. Now that your code is inserted, save the file and view the results.

The BannerZest banner prevents the logo and extraContent area 5 from displaying properly and I have not figured out how to remedy this. Turn the logo and EC5 "off" in the Styles menu.

The BannerZest banner is going to push the Title and Slogan down on the page. We can fix that with a bit of CSS:

.pageHeader h1{
margin-top:-180px;
}


Remember, when you use this technique and publish your site, send me a link so I can put your site in the showcase!

Now, go out and create some Headlines with either Headliner 3 or Headliner 4.
