Asking to see if this is possible

[Nickalf]

Hi,
I'm building a simple (at first) three page site using the "Vue Supersite" theme, which makes a carousel/flip type website.

I would like to have the Home (index) page as the center page, the 2nd page flip to the left or the 3rd page flip to the right (from the Home page).

How can I do that?

Thanks,
Nick...

If I correctly undestand your requirement you could
move the Home page to the middle,
rename it "home",
rename the about page (now the first page) to "index",
adjust the menu to show "About" for the first page
and add a little script that forces the Home page to be opened when visited.
See example (created in Designer Pro X12).
Code is placed at the website head.

siran, I like the clever check as to whether the hash exists.
I was going to use a sessionStorage.pageLoadCount check or document.referrer.

Thanks for the comeback

I tried that but without the script. What script do I need to create? (I don't have Designer Pro, only WDP15)

Your attached SupersiteCenterHome.web failed to load/open. I D/Led it - what app would open it?

Hi Nick. Xara has two default filetypes, .xar & .web
They are interchangable and any Xara software will open either.
It may be you haven't associated .web file types with your Xara software. To get around this open whatever Xara software you're using and drag the .web file into the Xara's title bar.
It may also help if you right click the Xara launch icon and 'Run as Administrator'

The script is:

<script>if(!location.hash)location.hash='xl_xr_page_home';</script>

but you will have to adjust xl_xr_page_home to xl_xr_page_... whatever the name of the page is that you want to be shown first.
You can put the script to the head of the site, a page or a placeholder, it doesn't matter when using a supersite.

Acorn, there are always multiple ways to do something in javascript.
