Custom Templates

The Custom Templates by Nicepage allow you to stylize pages that output Blog, Post, and Products differently. For example, you can have Product Details pages with different layouts and styling pages for goods and categories differently on one website. It allows you to quickly and consistently add other elements, layout, and styling for a particular template to make the pages using that template easy to recognize by your visitors.

Adding a Custom Template

You can add a custom template in the Theme section either on the Dashboard or the Editor by selecting the Add Template in the list.

Custom Template Types

In the Add Template dialog, enter the name and select the Template Type. For now, you can add templates for Blog, Post, Product List, Product Details, and Shopping Cart.

We are also working on custom WordPress templates.

Editing Custom Templates

You can select your previously added template for editing from the Theme list.

Deleting Custom Templates

Click the Bucket icon in the Theme list to delete a Custom Template.

Selecting a Template for WordPress Post

In this update, we have added the selection of the Custom Template for a WordPress post.

Open the Posts - Post and select a template for this post in the Template section to the right.

In future updates, we will add the selection of the Product Templates.

Assigning a Template via the Joomla Menu

In Joomla, the Custom Template is assigned via the Menu.

1. Duplicate the installed Nicepage Joomla Template.
2. Open the duplicated template.
3. Select the Templates tab.
4. Select the Custom Template created in Nicepage.
5. Save and Close
6. Open the Menu -> Your Menu -> Add New Menu Item
7. Enter the Menu Title, select the Menu Item Type and Article.
8. Scroll down to the Template Type.
9. Select the duplicated Joomla template, with the Custom Post Template, in the Template Type option.
10. Click Save and Close button.

Header and Footer

Sticky Option for Each Header Row

You can use the Stick property for any Header Row. Please note that you can see the sticking only on the exported sites or the previews.

Now you can stick a required Row and unstick all others.

Header Presets

We have added the Header Presets to help you to get started with the new Multi-Row Header layouts.

Adding Header and Footer to My Library

We have supported the addition of the Header and Footer Block to My Library.

Exporting and importing Header and Footer

You can also export and import Header and Footer Blocks to your disk.

Context Menu in Outline

We are improving the operations in the Outline. We have added the Context Menu, the same that you can use in the Editor for each Element or Container.

Sorting on Dashboard

We have improved the Pages' sorting on the Dashboard.

Best Practice: Placing One or Multi-Select Elements in a Row

Many layouts require the Grid and Grid Repeater Elements for making the automatic responsiveness on the Mobile Views. Add we see that in many cases, users put images and texts without containers, simply duplicating one or multi-selected Elements. Therefore, we have added the Best Practice helping them by turning the copied Elements placed in a Row into the Grid Repeater Element.

Change Video URL in Editor

We have added the Context Dialog for the Сhange Video icon since many users had difficulties finding this operation.
