Hello, Web sites built with pivot are they accessible from china? Do you have the URL of a website developed with pivot for a test from china, please ? Many thanks Pascal
Hey Pascal,
We don’t unfortunately but you can view the Pivot demo from China? This would be a good indicator – although depending on the host the user is with this could vary.
Hello and thank you for the answer. I live in Switzerland and my website is intended for Chinese clients living in China. For information, all the sites developed with wordpress are blocked in China. Pivot is a tool html but I want to be sure of its availability on the web Chinese. If someone can give me an URL of a website developed with Pivot, I will perform a connection test from China.
Hey Pascal, can you not just perform a test on the demo page? pivot.mediumra.re from China? That’s a pure HTML version of Pivot so should be as good as any other link that’s using Pivot HTML
Quick question here.
Do I need to self host the builder or I can use one on your site?
Thank you.
Variant has been designed to run locally from your own machine by simply opening builder.html in your browser. Chrome and FF give best results. Therefore no need to host it anywhere 
Great theme, one of my happier theme purchases on themeforest!
Currently working on putting together a site using this, and have built a more complex contact form with multiselect options. Running into an issue when the form POSTS through JS to the swift mailer mail.php. Everything is going through except the multi-select values. I tried doing name=”name[]” to pass the array as with a standard php form, but once it processes through, rather than sending the values it just says “array”...
Is this something that needs to be addressed in the scripts.js file or within the swift mailer files?
Thanks for your help on this.
Any input?
So… not even an “I don’t know?”
Hi, Please open a ticket on mediumrare.ticksy.com and I can help you in full detail with code snippets that can’t be shared easily here. This is something we have catered for in our “Machine” item and I will be able to sort you out a solution for Pivot.
Thanks James

not got any revert for my ticket since last 2 days. ticket no 411944
Hello,
This ticket was replied to yesterday.
I think there is a huge problem, you are just replying to my issues with copy paste logic. Have u seen the revert from me??
I think it will be better that we discuss the issues here because you kind of ignore the issues and reverts from me very conveniently for the ticket raised on Ticksy.
I have added the code that u have sent in the format suggested by php.net website,, the problem is not solved
YOU NEVER REVERTED TO MY ISSUES RELATED TO MAILCHIMP. When do you think you can do that?
Hello,

Hello. Is there an update to Variant somewhere? I noticed the demo version on your website has newer / more options (full screen video, specifically). The Variant app that came with Pivot does not have this option.
Thanks for responding…
Hey there,
Have you upgraded your version to the latest 2.0.2 version? You may need to update your template files.
2 Questions
1- Is the page builder scripts included or is it an online service? 2- Can the page builder has the edit source code option? if it has the same “source” button function as http://pixfort.com/landing/flatpack/builder/
it would be totally awesome
Hello
1- It is in the download package, so it can run offline on your own machine
2 – No there is no function to edit the source code of specific section yet
Thanks, Craig

Hi, I just want to be sure that my web site, developped with “PIVOT” won’t be censured by Chinese Government. Could some one give me different URL of active websites built with “PIVOT” ? Many thanks Pascal
Hey there,
Unfortunately we aren’t familiar with how the Chinese Governments censorship rules work. I guess if you can view the demo in China then that’s a good start 
Hi, Awesome theme. One request, would it be possible to get a block that had a simple FAQ. Just for a 5-6 simple questions. I noticed you had something similar on another one of your themes and that would be incredibly handy on this one.
Thanks,
Hey there,
You could create your own FAQ using the ‘Text Columns’. Just clone the columns as you need for each Q and A 
Where can I find the full list of elegant & line icons? I already have the template but I need to see the full icon list
The quickest way I can think of is to load up Variant builder and open the icon selector dialog box and inspect for the name of the icon you wan to use. That will show you the class name you need to apply to get your desired icon.

Hi. Any updates on including video links in the gallery lightbox?
Sorry, nothing to report yet. James.
I ‘m having a bit of trouble making work Mailchimp, I do not know which Code I have to copy on the builder, can you help me please?
http://gaszen.com CheersHello, you can see in the documentation for Variant about which code you should copy in for your Mail Chimp form. You just need to copy in the basic embedded-form code.
Hi there,
I want to have a full screen slider. Reading thru the comments I found a post you made about 5 months ago in response to someone else wanting to do this.. You said to look at the one-page template. Quote: ” one-page template – that is using a fullscreen slider that resizes itself on each pageload based on the size of the browser.”
There is no reference to ‘hero-slider’ on that onepage template page. How can I have a full-screen slider that loads the slides full browser size and has the navigation, etc.
thanks.
Hey there,
You can add the class ‘fullscreen-element’ to any slider to make it the height of the browser as the pages loads 
Hi again, thanks, but could you provide some code as an example .. It hasn’t worked out how i am hoping…
This is how you would add that class: <section class=”hero-slider fullscreen-element”>

Yes,
I can help you in more detail when you open a ticket at mediumrare.ticksy.com
James
i have not purchased this till now. Need to know before, I make payment. Basically want to create animated web banners ( with tracking id)
I don’t think this is an appropriate product for what you are looking to achieve.
I would be very grateful if you can help me on this matter. Best regards Mauro
It looks like your page is looking to find the mail.php file in this location : http://www.italianlakeswedding.com/photographers/mail/mail.php – do you have it uploaded there? You need to have the whole contents of the mail folder there too.
Hi, thanks to your help I understood where the problem was. Form works perfectly! I have another question to ask. Now I open a ticket at mediumrare.ticksy.com thanks again Mauro
No problem Mauro 
Hello,
Simple question before buying this simple template yet looking great. How people can leave comments in the blog section in the non-wordpress version ? I mean how posted comments finally “appears” in the website ? Comments have to be integrated in the html ?
Thanks !
Hi there,
You would need to use Disqus (disqus.com) and paste the comment form code in there. In pure HTML there isn’t a way to manage a database of comments, replies etc.
hello there,
i really like the design of the template and variant framework. i think i got a good handle of it but i have found a few bugs and ux issues. i was wondering when is the next version coming out? i am using 2.0.2 of pivot html. i also purchased the wordpress version of it but i haven’t played with it yet.
thanks

Hi, first of all this looks absolutly amazing and fits my project very well, now the pre-sale questions,
Can i build/design my own new blocks and add them to library? Also, is it possible to add an image uploader? Is it open source si i can mess around with the code?
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
You are welcome to edit the code in builder.html to add and edit the blocks, but we don’t support this. Builder code is not open source and you receive a minified version. The builder is designed to run locally on your machine so there is no need for an image uploader.
James
Hi, I have been trying to import images but in vain.
When I import an image it displays an red box in the place of an image stating: ‘Copy ‘the image’ to your img folder then click here to refresh.”
I have tried the above but couldnt get the hang of it. It would be great if you could explain the procedure to me.
Thanks in Advance.
Hi There,
The image needs to be placed in your img folder in the place you are using the builder. This will not work if you are using the demo online, or using your own copy on your own hosting server.
Run Variant locally on your machine after unzipping it to a folder, then the folder you need to put the images in is the Pivot 2.0.2/img folder.
Hope this helps 
James
