moving static block 'out of container'

Question

I am currently using Magento 1.9 and the Bootstrap boilerplate.

I have already put the banner slider in a static block.

Is there any way to move a static block out of the container to below the menu?

So it fits the screen width wise.

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

1) Create some static block, then put your code on it.

2) To display this block out of container and after the menu in All pages, you have to add this piece of code in : app/design/frontend/{package}/{theme}/layout/local.xml

The piece of code:

<default>
...
<reference name="top.container">
    <block type="cms/block" name="custom.slider" after="-">
        <action method="setBlockId"><block_id>block_id</block_id></action>
    </block> 
</reference>
...
</default>

Clean Magento and browser cache.
