Apologies if this doesn’t belong in support. Currently, the main /s subscription page simply shows the subscription/payment options. And each subscription/payment option has only a limited amount of text characters you can include. For my purposes, I’d like to make the /s landing page a bit more …

I got it to work on only the subscriptions page and mostly properly formatted with the following. Huge thanks to @pfaffman and @NateDhaliwal for providing the clues necessary for this complete solution to my needs. Note: This works for my needs, but it’s very hacky. Go to Admin Go to themes an…

I think this can be done with CSS. Could you send a screenshot with where you want to add the text? Thanks.

[image] ZeroDean: Wasn’t intended as criticism at all. No, no. I meant to imply, yes. You’re right. The documentation should be improved. That’s why I said it was “fair”! [image] ZeroDean: Yes, I’d discovered that link earlier in my searches. The problem is, I don’t know how to run Disco…

There should be a body class that’s only on the subscription page, so you can then use CSS to hide the thing you add on every page except the subscription one.
