Can somebody please answer these questions or point me in the right direction to find them?  I am working on a shortlist story map v.1.4.8.

1) Is it possible to add a second custom logo (w/href) to the logoArea <div> or can the social div be modified to include two (stacked) links?

--I thought I could pull it off by adding a second logo div to logoArea but there is either more to it beyond index.html changes or I'm simply not doing it correctly.  Ideally the logos will be placed side-by-side, with some space between. 

--I was able to add a second link to the social div but it didn't leave any space between the two links.  Plus, I'd like to stack them if possible.

2) Does the story map popup (from the .csv) override any and all popups configured in the AGOL map?

--I want the user to not only get information via the popup derived from the .csv, but also from the AGOL popup.  My story map shows a five-year road plan and it might be nice for the user to be able to identify a feature from a year other than the active year, without having to search through each tab to cross-reference the intended feature.

-I set up a configurable popup for one of the layers (from a map service) in my AGOL map.  Said popup loads in AGOL but not in my story map.

3) Any tips or code for adding a basemap toggle, probably for custom basemaps, would be much appreciated.

Rupert,

Thank you for the prompt response and sorry my delayed response.

I've had a chance to look over your links and notes and think I have what I need to get me going in the right direction.  I will probably come back with another question or two though.  Thanks again.

Hi Adam.

1)

I'm not sure about the coding but in the Story Maps gallery there are some Shortlists with customizations applied:

and I saw these examples with multiple logos:

Yes the Shortlist overrides all popup configured in the web map and imposes its own logic and popup schema. Any supporting feature layers (i.e. layers that don't define the content in the tabs) in your web map can have popups in your Shortlist as long as they have fields matching the Shortlist schema and you specify the names of the layers that you want to be clickable in the SUPPORTING_LAYERS_THAT_ARE_CLICKABLE parameter in the index.html. For example, you could add the point layers for the other years as additional point layers and define popups for them (so these would be displayed independently of the numbered points represented by the tabs. If you do add supporting layers to your web map that are points, there's a parameter POINT_LAYERS_NOT_TO_BE_SHOWN_AS_TABS in the Index.html where you name those supporting point layers so that the Shortlist doesn't treat them as tabs.  (Note: we are going to simplify how this works in the new version of the Shortlist: we'll be providing full support for popups configured in the web map for your supporting layers, so the Shortlist will display the ArcGIS Online web map popups as-is for any layers that have them which don't define tabs).

I'm not sure about the specificcoding but here's an example of a Shortlist with a basemap control:
