Is there a way to hide index page content?

[Jaime Stuardo]

Hello,

I am customizing the Magento template and it is working so far. There is one thing i cannot do, though.

I have a Home Page with some nonsense content that I need to hide.

How can I do it? I tried with <referenceContainer name="content" remove="true"> defined in cms_index_index.xml, but all content area was removed, including a slideshow and featured products.

Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks

Use CSS display: none rule: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/display

That would be possible if there is a HTML tag to be hidden. In this case, the HTML is:

<div class="column main">
<div class="magestore-bannerslider">
<div class="magestore-bannerslider"> </div>
<input type="hidden" value="mc8DLg5cCmCPDL4R" name="form_key">
<div id="authenticationPopup" style="display: none;" data-bind="scope:'authenticationPopup'">
<div class="magestore-bannerslider"> </div>
<div class="magestore-bannerslider"> </div>
<p>Aquí va el texto de bienvenida al sitio.</p>
</div>

What I need to hide is 

<p>Aquí va el texto de bienvenida al sitio.</p>

So, I cannot use display: none without the possibility to hide anoher element in the page.

I could hide the title with

<referenceBlock name="page.main.title" remove="true" />

in cms_index_index.xml. I am wondering if there is an elegant way to hide the page content in home page the same way as I have done with title. I can also add a text with font color #fff or the HTML in the page body of the CMS but that would also be a trick.

Regards,

"That would be possible if there is a HTML tag to be hidden."

<p> is a HTML tag too.

Just use a CSS combinator with p: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_combinators.asp

It is not that simple as you think. I cannot do it without the possiblity to hide another element accidentally.

But never mind. I have set the page content to be:

<font color="###">.</font>

It is tricky, but it worked :-)
