In the Layouts editor #

1. Open Layouts > Layouts and the layout Landing Page / Home; the editor opens it in a draft.
2. Open the block palette (+ at the top left) and drag List (group Listing) into the zone main.
3. On the Content tab press + Add items, open the branches, tick the articles, Add selected.
4. Drag the items into order; on the Design tab choose view type and item view type.
5. Publish layout. The pages that use the layout show the block on their next view.

The Prefooter was changed this way: Change the prefooter in the Layouts editor.

With templates #

1. A fixed list of node IDs in a template (fetch( 'content', 'node', ... ) per ID) works, but every change is a deploy.
