One page website

With Jumpstart or any of your themes, is there a way to implement a “one page website”? So, if five pages are setup and added to the menu, the pages would actually be stacked on top of one another on the homepage. I have a few of these to setup and would like to use your framework to do it if possible. I was thinking of making a child theme for Jumpstart but that might not be the best solution. Any direction or ideas would be appreciated.

Hello,
There isn’t really anything specifically for Jump Start that would really be applicable. This would just sort of be a general approach you’d have to decide on. I’d imagine there’d be tons of theoretical ways you could accomplish this from your Child theme though.
For example, from your Child theme, you could create a custom page template, and in that template just have some query of retrieving pages and looping through them like you would blog posts, or whatever.

Then, for each page when displaying its content in the loop, you could also wrap it in some sort of DIV or other elmenet that you then give it a unique ID based the page’s slug or whatever. Then, you’ll have:
Page 1...Page 2...Page 3...Page 4...And in your WP menu builder, you’d just setup custom links where you link to
#page-1,#page-2, etc.Brilliant! That’s what I’m looking for. Thank you for taking the time to run through the steps and provide further direction.
Cheers!
