How to add a tiled menu on SharePoint 2013 landing page

Question

SharePoint 2013 Office 365

I'd like to add a menu on the home page that uses the same type of grid tile layout as what initially comes on a new site's page...

Is there a native/already installed web part or app that allows me to add this type of tiled menu?

Thanks,

R

Yes, you absolutely can add the list of tiles like this. If you want to create the tile menu like this. You should use these steps:

• Create a promotion list. Go to Site Content -> Add an app -> Choose Promotion Link list -> pick a name and create this list.
• Go to the list just created and add the tiles you want to show with title, description, link, background image...
• Go to the landing page you want to show the tile menu on: Edit page -> Insert this list to the page and Save.

So you will see the tile menu display on the landing page.
