Hi, is there a way to stop forms from zooming in on phones?
For example, when someone taps a field to type, the form zooms in – I want users to be able to go into a field on form without the screen to zoom in.
Thanks
Hi there,
Unfortunately this is the default behaviour for a form element on an iOS device. This is an Apple sanctioned browser behaviour and not something we can prevent.
Thanks,
Craig
Hi Craig,
Sorry but i have to disagree here. This depends on the design of the form, if the form is designed to take into account these things then it would work perfectly without having to zoom in – here is an example of a form which works without zooming in: https://slack.com/help/contact
I would assume it depends on the size of the fonts and text fields used?
Thanks Kenn
OK no response after 2 months – clearly i’ve proven my point that it’s possible as a lot of new themes already have this issue resolved but you don’t even bother responding to an issue here.
I’m not even a developer, but this isn’t so hard to change – so don’t get why you don’t just amend this in your theme(s). It’s so bloody annoying as a user to zoom in/out every time we have to type into a field, it’s a waste of time and energy. That’s how consumers think these days, so you either adapt or you don’t.
Your theme ‘LOOKS’ good in many ways, but the devil is in the details – and this is one detail you got wrong. But seeing from no response in 2 months, you are obviously in denial about it or can’t accept you were wrong.
Your answer was misleading – because you thought everybody is an idiot and you can act as a ‘knowledgable’ developer and tell me that this is the ’’default’’ form behaviour for an ’’Apple sanctioned’’ browser – well guess what, that’s a load of bull. Tons of themes with forms out on here which work perfectly without zooming in every time you have to type something in a form. It’s annoying.
And since landing pages are all about CAPTURING information, then your whole theme becomes pointless – it’s not always just about prettiness, but also about basic function, and it’s so annoying when developers take others for idiots.
Wasted my money on your product – off to find another theme which DOES work on iOS devices without zooming in.
Apologies that this has slipped through and that our tone came across as dismissive. I’m happy to admit that a fix has now been found and we will be updating Stack shortly to publish this patch.
Kind Regards, Craig
Hi, do any of your other templates come with a list of Blocks and Elements… other than Stack and Foundary?
Hi there,
Any theme which is shipped with Variant has a list of blocks. You can open the Variant Buidler demo for any of our Variant templates on any browser and scroll through the list of blocks included with that template.
James
Thanks James… it’s more the Elements that I am looking for. Would you consider adding these to your Menu for all of your Themes… it’s a great way to see what each Theme exists of!
I see, thanks for the clarification. We’ll endeavour to include this in future releases.
Thank you… I think it would help you sell a lot more too. The builder is great, but it’s far more effective if you can see the Elements that are available in a template.
the Variant builder in Google Chrome is failing to include the name of the section id on the exported file. I have to manually edit html file in order for the menus to work. This is the empty id in the section div: < a id=”” class=”in-page-link” data-scroll-id=”home” >
I’m using one index.html file as a one page layout so linking the menu to the anchor id is crucial.
Anything I’m doing wrong?
I have replied to your ticket now – but I think it could be because you are manually adding the desired id, whereas you should use the dropdown box of existing renamed sections to indicate to Variant that you want to link to one of those.
James
Hey thanks James for the reply. Initially I was manually inserting the page id so perhaps that breaks the file on export moving forward.
Hello.
I have questions, please answer them:
1) If I buy a license “Regular License”, how can I make websites and download them?
2) If I buy a license “Regular License” then I can download “Stack Multi-Purpose HTML with Page Builder” on my computer and install “Stack Multi-Purpose HTML with Page Builder” on my website (domain)?
Before buying, I need to know the answers to these questions, thank you.
Hi there,
One single license means you can make one website, then if you make another site, you must purchase another license. One for each site you make.
When you purchase, you will need to download the files and unzip the package to your own machine. Then you can open the variant builder and start building pages. When you have built the pages, you upload the required files to your hosting.
James
Thank you!
Is it possible to have the side menu sub navigation have a smooth opening and closing like the accordions do?
Hi there,
This has not been created as the sub-nav changes the display CSS attribute to none when closed.
To animate this would take some extra CSS code to provide the animation and some JS code to add and remove classes from the element.
James
Built a couple landing pages to add to an existing project. Worked perfectly! But when I try to add the newsletter modal exit popup to the header the css code breaks the page. Wonder if you could tell what classes, files are used to display Stack modals or if there’s a simple way to use the Stack modal. Thanks!
Hi there,
Could you please show me a link to your page so I can see what you’re seeing? A demo page would be fine, as long as I have access to it.
The HTML for the modal does not need to be located in the nav. Your modal can be anywhere in the page (close to the foot) then your data-show-on-exit attribute just needs to contain a selector that matches the nav.
James
I’m sure this is easy for you to fix.
Best,
Hi there,
We would also need to see this working on a live demo page to ensure everything is correct – it is very difficult to debug from just a screenshot.
Please open a ticket on our support system at http://mediumrare.ticksy.com and we’ll be glad to assist.
There, you can provide us a live link for us to check on.

I want to use the form validation feature but ultimately submit the form to some other URL without AJAX. If I don’t add class “form-email”, validation does not work. And if I add it, it forces the ajax mode. How can I use form validation without AJAX?
Hi there,
The form validation can be accessed through javascript. Also for your information, you can change where the form is submitted by changing the action attribute on the form itself. This allows you to keep the ajax functionality (and validation) but submit to a different address than mail/mail.php which is the default.
If you just want to run the validation manually you can call
mr.forms.validateFields(form);
Where form is a js reference, a jQuery reference, or selector to identify your form element. The function returns the error text or false if no errors were encountered.

Do you have any plans to integrate MapBox as an alternative to Google Maps?
That is a great idea – I love how slick MapBox is. Google has been rather greedy with their latest price hike, but we are still able to remain below the free threshhold across our item demo pages.
What are your requirements and what is your interest in MapBox over Google Maps?
My interest is simply that I do not want to rely on Google, their pricing is really murky.
The following marketplace app has switched to Mapbox from Google as their default map, though there’s the option to use Google too:
https://github.com/sharetribe/flex-template-web/blob/master/docs/map-providers.mdMy requirements for Stack is simply to be able to use Mapbox instead, but I guess we could customise this ourselves.

Does this include LESS or SASS?
Hello,
Yes it includes LESS.

How easy is it to make the header have a centred logo for desktop / is this possible in the current version?
Hi there,
There is navigation type that shows this at this page: http://trystack.mediumra.re/home-landing-1.html is this what you were referring to?
Thanks,
Craig
In your next release could you try to work on responsive notifications?
might be as easy as removing margin on some of the notifications at that window size?
Hi,
I am converting my theme to your new version with bootstrap 4.x . I am finding a few classes missing from your documentation, do you have an updated doc with all the classes?
e.g. “dropdown__content—lg”
understanding – why did you opt to use this solution vs the helper class solution?
<div class="col-md-12 dropdown__content dropdown__content--lg">
vs
<code>
<div class="col-md-12 dropdown__content space--lg">
seems like the dom would read the latter faster and you would reduce the corresponding css of the prior by half. Am I missing something?
<code>
@media all and (min-width: 991px) {
.dropdown .dropdown__container:before {
height: 0.92857143em;
width: 100%;
content: '';
display: block;
}
.dropdown .dropdown__content.dropdown__content--md {
padding: 2.78571429em;
}
.dropdown .dropdown__content.dropdown__content--lg {
padding: 3.71428571em;
}
.dropdown .dropdown__content.dropdown__content--xlg {
padding: 4.64285714em;
}
}
</code>
Thanks</div></code></div>
Hi there,
Thanks for your input. The space—lg was reserved for sections, although I will agree that the name does not necessarily appear to preclude other elements.

Craig
Hi, is it possible to use video as backgroud instead of image in the Cover section?
Hi there,
Yes this is possible and is demonstrated as Cover Video 4 on this page: http://trystack.mediumra.re/sections-covers.html
Thanks,
Craig
hi, how do I remove the scroll to top arrow?
Hello,
You would need to remove the element from within the HTML file.
If you need assistance with this, you can open a support ticket at http://mediumrare.ticksy.com
James
can you tell me which page?
Each page has a ‘back to top’ arrow element, so you’ll need to remove it from each page.
Thanks,
James
Hi, apologies if this is the wrong place to ask and let us know if we need to extend our support?
We were trying to replicate this page http://trystack.mediumra.re/blog-articles-cards.html but when we launch Variant the only options under ‘blog’ in the page builder seems to be either posts, List simple or Recent stories and we only see the category filter available with the simple list?
How would we create the filtered cards in this link http://trystack.mediumra.re/blog-articles-cards.html
How do we tag/add filters to posts?
Thanks for a great item.
Hi there,
Currently these features aren’t possible inside the builder, hence the limited blog blocks available inside the builder. I’d recommend editing this page directly with HTML where you can use the ‘data-masonry-filter’ attribute to adjust which category the post belongs to.
Thanks,
Craig
I really wish we could have more design for the navi or header region. Do dev team has plan to do so?
Hi there,
Which nav or header layouts did you want to see added? We can definitely take a look for a potential future release. (Any links or screenshots would be helpful)
Thanks,
Craig
Hi there,
Thanks for the link! I see what you mean about the richer functionality of these dropdowns. We can definitely consider adding these.

Craig
That template appears to be exclusive to that marketplace and the price appears to be the average price of templates sold there
That’s correct, Bootstrap have different guidelines around pricing.
Hi guys, after buying for of your themes (Stack, Machine, Pivot, Foundry), all of them beautiful themes and very easy to work with, I just found out that your newest addition to the family is called Insight and is not sold at Envato but instead at geobootstrap.com??? Also, pricing is $ 49.00, 3 times the Envato pricing for your themes!
Question: are you going to sell Insight at Themeforest at the regular Envato pricing for HTML templates?
Thanks!
Hi there Daniel,
The templates released at the Bootstrap marketplace are were commissioned by the Bootstrap team and are priced accordingly for that marketplace. We will be releasing new items on Themeforest in the future.
Thanks and best,
Craig
Hi, The full demos are not included and I dont see all of the blocks to make the sites. For example the crypto site blocks and others are missing
Hi there,
Not all blocks are available due to some limitations of the builder (editing progress bars etc) so we haven’t been able to include every block. You can definitely still use these elements in your page once you export from the builder however – just copy and paste the section.
We’re working toward having full HTML editing inside the builder environment but we’re not quite there.
Best regards,
Craig
