    diego9010 it was quicker for me to record a short video rather than doing screenshots, so hopefully the attached will help you build this in less than 10 minutes.

It looks like you are using a team site. Try a communication site instead and you will be able to create an experience that is exactly what you are looking for. Navigation will be at the top and you can use a mega menu to show a comprehensive story of helpful links for your users. If you really want a narrow banner at the top of the home page, create a site page and then use the “make home page” feature from the Site Pages library to make that page the home page.

Hi SusanHanley 

 

I do have that one at the top (I think). Please take a look: 

 

I am looking to have exactly what RobElliott did with Power Apps.

 

I want to learn new ways to make sharepoints slightly different from the standard features.

 

Regards 😄

    No, you started with a team site, not a communication site. If the purpose of your site is to communicate information, not collaborate, you want a communication site and you can get your desired outcome without needing any other app. From the SharePoint start page, select New site and choose communication site. If you need collaboration workspaces, you will want team sites.

      Hi RobElliott 

       

      You solved my problem thanks a million. One final question, when I click on the button it opens a brand new tab. Is it possible to click and open the link on the same tab?

       

      Thanks!

        diego9010 as I said at the end of the video, Microsoft have started working on the request to have an option where the launch function opens in the same tab but it's not delivered yet. https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Power-Apps-Ideas/Launching-App-Web-Page-in-same-tab-page-of-browser/idi-p/28687/page/4#comments
