Hello,

I am trying to see if there's a way to override the slogan region and place something else in there.

Basically, I have the Quotes module installed and I'd like for the site to pull from that list and place a random quote in the area below the title where the slogan normally would appear. I guess that I could just remove the slogan and place a "Quotes" region directly below the title, but I was wondering if there was another way.

Also, I'm trying to figure out how to make that region look just like what the slogan looks like. I know that's specific to my theme, but if there's any general suggestions, I'd appreciate some insight.

Thanks,

Jsoh

I suggest using views to make your list of quotes. Make a views block, then insert the block in the region where your slogan usually is. Then with CSS, make it look the same as your slogan and maybe position it exactly where you want it to be displayed.
I think this will be easier than trying to override the way the core slogan works...

Thanks for the response. I had thought of that, but I'm not sure I'm good enough with Views to make it happen. I'll go play around and see what I can do.

Thanks,

Josh
