Hi, i want to transform a infographic imagem to infographic html (dont wordpress, html). The only requiriment its be responsive and full text. (changes can be.) Well, do you have some theme to me dot it? http://imgur.com/a/9jhZ2

Hi there,

This would require you to do your own HTML and CSS to achieve this layout – there is nothing built-in to Foundry that looks just like this, so it would require custom code to do.

Thanks, Craig

Hi, Firstly, thanks for the awsome varient builder. Save me a lot of time… My question, I wanted to have a full screen layout and mix the tab layout inside it. I can’t figure out how to do this.

The idea is my entire page will have the same layout, but only the contents will be different, like some will have forms, and some will have tab.

I could insert it easily but i lost the full screen (no scroll) functionality. It always gets inserted below the full screen layout.

Thanks

Hi there,

Thanks for purchasing! Do you mean you’re trying to use the tab markup to emulate a fullscreen layout? To do this you’d need to place full <sections> inside the tab content element.

Hi, great Theme with perfect Site builder. But I want to know, if you could generate external links for example to google fonts via https when anyone will export his site to html. It is a much work load to change the http links to https for the users. I think it would be easier when you could implemate this function in export to html function. Or? It would be a greate feature because https is more important than ever.

Best regards, Erich

Hello.

Has Foundry Builder advanced css editor? Also interested in the question when generating css classes in the html code use the word builder?

Hi there,

You make your CSS edits in the custom.css file – not the page builder itself. You’d add your own custom classes to the page once you’ve exported the HTML from the builder.

Thanks, Craig

Hi Medium, Can’t thank you enough. Definitely love the product and had only one issue but mainly because I’m so new to all of this I don’t know the terminology so still takes me a little longer to figure out.

One quick question if I may, on the HTML5 Video Slider, Everything works fine, but I uploaded it and when viewed on a webpage it seems to go back and forth quickly instead of playing the full thing. I was thinking that there’s probably a short customcss code or something in the script.js file that I have to change? it’s random like the video will play for 4 seconds, then switch to the next slide for like 2 seconds then switch back and forth randomly. Any thoughts?

Hi there,

It sounds like you might have autoplay enabled on the slider, you’ll need to change slideshow: true to slideshow: false in the scripts to disable the autoplay.

Thanks, Craig

Gotcha I’ll check that. The one I meant is the one that just plays a video in the background when you go to that page. It allows me to add slides of either images or videos but I chose to have 2 videos play one after the other. They are about 45 seconds long each before going to the next slide. I was able to add them just fine but when online they just do that weird thing back and forth instead of it playing for the amount of time and then switching to the next one. is that the same thing?

Its the template page named HTML5 Video Slider.

In this case, you’ll need to set the slide time to 45000 so that the slider knows to page the slider every 45 seconds – there is no built-in functionality for the slider interpreting the video’s length

Cheers, Craig

I started using foundry just a day ago and found out that there are other themes based on variant builder. I love love love the result i have with foundry but i’d like to have a few more elements like a hero slider that takes 80% of the screen space and the rest 20% is a small horizontal form that takes username, email and asks a visitor to get started. And for this reason, i would like to purchase other themes that use variant page builder. My question : Is there a simple/twisted approach through which I can purchase other themes and include its library in my foundy folder, so that in the end I can have 60 elements instead of 30 ( I haven’t actually counted the number of elements in foundry , please dont take offence in the numbers :) )

Looking forward to your message

Best,

Shreya

Hi there,

Thanks for purchasing, and for your feedback. Currently the mixing of themes is not something that is supported – this is because all themes use different CSS – and you’d need to make some additional adjustments to get the elements from other themes working correctly with the Foundry ones.

Thanks, Craig

Hi, please, I would like to know if I can create pages online with your template without need worpress or similar cms. Is it really enough with this template to edit or delete or create pages in the site?? Thanks in advance!! best regards

Hi there,

The template and builder output HTML files so as long as you don’t require CMS functionality such as blog archiving, pagination, dynamic content etc. then you can use HTML. It’s important to note that being pure HTML means that the content is static however – and that you’ll need to manage the menus, pages etc manually

Thanks, Craig

​Hi, I’m experiencing some trouble setting up the CTA Form 2 in my website. I pasted the link from MailChimp, the Classic Embbeded Form. But after submitting the email on the website, nothing happens. Can you help please? Best regards, Jose

Thanks for replying! Eventually figured it was a problem with my browser. Nothing was working on Chrome, should have suspected it before!

Hi MediumRare,

Is the HTML version of Foundry as up to date as the WP version? It looks like the WP is now more advanced with extra elements like video slider. Does the HTML version have the new video slider?

BUG REPORT:

Modals Close Behaviour (For modals showing on page load only)

>> When using a modal set to show on page load, the modal does not close after clicking the top right exit icon. Instead, the background overlay dissapears, and then the top right exit button must be clicked a second time to close the modal. Clicking anywhere outside of the model closes the modal in one click. However, clicking the modal hides the overlay, and a second click is required to close the modal.

This behavior does not occur when a modal is displayed with a button press.

FIX REQUEST: Please change the exit modal behaviour for page-load modals, so that a single click of the exit icon closes the modal immediately.

We can’t guarantee that the HTML version of Foundry matches the WP version as our customers have different demands and requirements, after release the products can go in different directions.

Hi I have left a ticket how does it usually take to reply? There is an issue with the instagram feed, any quick help would be appreciated.

All tickets are generally responded to within 1 business day.

Thanks, Craig

First off, love the work done on this. It’s absolutely awesome. Just one question, regarding the logo in the nav menu. I know that you have to adjust the size in custom css based on the documentation but I think I may be doing it wrong. Here is what my custom css files looks like. But still looks small.

/* PLACE YOUR CUSTOM STYLES HERE */

.logo{ max-height: 100%; } .logo{ max-width: 100%; }

My image is 900×216.

Any thoughts? suggestions?

Hey Again! last one i promise since really this has me stumped. I entered your code into the custom css like you said and visually the size of the of the module i guess does get bigger, but my logo stays the exact same size. Hopefully that makes sense. Like i see the sorrounding area of my logo expanding but the logo itself doesn’t. Maybe I’m missing something that I should be deleting? or adding? I even tried making my logo bigger by like 150px height but it still hasn’t changed from the original size. Any ideas?

Hi medium, nevermind. I figured out what was happening. In the example you gave there was a ( instead of a {. As soon as I noticed that it worked like a charm. Not sure if it was like that in the tutorial. Experts would probably figure it out quick but took me a sec to get it. Thanks again!

No worries glad you worked it out :)

How can I change/translate the contact form authentication notices (e.g. “Please fill all fields correctly.” or “Thanks for your submission, we will be in touch shortly.”). I strangely can’t find the phrases in any of the SwiftMail files… Thank you!

Haha.. I was thinking way to far (and spent an hour sifting though the multitude of SwiftMail PHPs). Found the passages in the HTML-code. :-/ =D

No worries, glad you found it :)

Has anyone had issues with delayed loading? Ran a google speed test & the .css files files are recommend for compression.

EXAMPLE: Compressing foundry_19/css/bootstrap.css could save 123KiB (85% reduction). Compressing foundry_19/css/flexslider.css could save 4.8KiB (77% reduction).

Hi there,

By all means compress the CSS files – the reason we don’t do this by default is so that people who want to edit them have a legible file to work with :)

Craig

Got it…next question. Can I just pay you to do that? That would be amazing! We have no idea how? Please advise as we would like to have it done as soon as possible! Again, happy to buy the package with the compressed files. Just send us the link!

You can use a service such as https://cssminifier.com/ to compress them, then just replace the contents of your current file with the minified output :)

hi, can you please provide me a line code to add to your header video background to specify the video to stop at 90 second because now it loop forever consuming way too much cpu, thanks !

Hi there,

Apologies for the delayed reply – your message some how slipped through. Are you referring to a Youtube video background or a locally hosted video background?

Thanks, Craig

Hi, no problem, both local and youtube, thank you

Hi there,

Can you please open a ticket at mediumrare.ticksy.com so we can help out with a custom snippet to achieve this.

Thanks, Craig

Does this item support rtl ?

Hello – not out of the box, you’d need to add in the RTL CSS to the custom.css file.

Cheers, Craig

Hey, I like to buy this but have question, where this builder is installed?

The builder runs locally from your machine in the browser – no need to install :)

Waiting for stack.. Hope it comes out soon :)

Stay tuned – it should be released in the next 1 -2 days :)

:) Super excited after seeing the dribble screenshot and twitter screenshots.. Hope this review does not take too long..

Hi! I have a subscription form in a modal popup. I wonder how to have the modal closed after submiting the form. thanks

This will just take some custom scripts added to your scripts.js file in the js folder.

Please extend support and open a ticket at http://mediumrare.ticksy.com and I’ll be able to put something together for you.

James

Hi, thanks for your answer. I will not renew my support just to get a few answers. This 6 month support only doesnt work fine for customers, since its impossible to debug everithyng in 6 months. thanks

This would require custom scripts, which falls outside even the standard support, but I would be willing to accommodate.

James

​Hello. Is there a way for make use of your js form validation but whithout send email? I need to make client form-validation and send form with post actios to a php page (to make inserts in mysql)

Thanks

Hi, thanks for your question – yes there is – and the answer is in your ticket at http://mediumrare.ticksy.com/

Cheers, James

I would love to see a preview of Stack – Any ETA? Received an email, looking forward to getting it

Any chance of seeing it anywhere? Im using Foundry and was going to do an Overhall on our site then I saw the email on Stack. Want to make sure it has what Ill want. Does it use anything like the Variant? Not that we need it, just makes the layout foundation so easy .

Yes, Variant will be included and better than ever! Stack will include over 250 blocks to choose from in Variant with more ways to tweak the layout and style of the page.

Unfortunately we can’t show a preview until the item is approved on Themeforest but we’ll be sure to alert you by email and tweet when the item is released – which should be some time in the next 4 days.

Cheers, James

Great!
