Purchased today and I am impressed with how easy it is to drop in and play with the many building blocks. I do have some questions and I would invite anyone to answer so I can do my work asap (thanks in advance! – I did read the help file for variant)
1. How can I select a text block and make the selected text a link? Do I have to do that using HTML once the HTML is generated?
2. Are there no blocks at all that give a numbered list? Why not? Is there an easy way to make a numbered or unordered list using variant?
3. Why would my footer (saved) be white on the first page I created and then when using that saved footer for my next page it became a light gray? FRUSTRATING! 
It is still fun to play with this but it does look like it will take a lot of work in the code to finish it off unless I am missing something (I probably am – I hope!)
Thanks!
Ugh – I also wish the regular link css for body text was not tied into the navigation system. I understand not having the nav bar use underlining for the links, but for body text links it would be nice to not use the same css. More work…
1 – Yes this needs to be done outside Variant after exporting HTML 2- No, there are no umbered list blocks in Pivot, we’ll consider adding some as we update the item. 3 – The footer colour is set to alternate from the previous block’s colour so it is offset and easily distinguishable. 4 – Link colour is a design choice that you are free to edit using the custom.css file if you wish.

Thanks James.
I do understand I can change the link color, but I think if possible, it would be a good idea to separate the navigation css links from the body links since the navigation is so specialized. I hope you can throw in some pages with ordered and unordered lists. Thanks for such a time saving template.
Hello, I am having troubles getting this to work on hostgator shared domain hosting. The html loads, but the CSS and images do not.
Hi, would you mind please opening a ticket on mediumrare.ticksy.com with a link to your site and we will be able to help you investigate.
Hello, Buy the issue but can not export my html code PageBuilder tells me to buy it and it did help me
Hi there,
Thanks for purchasing 
I’ve replied to your ticket on Ticksy. You need to open builder.html from the variant folder in your download package.
Cheers, Craig
Hello!! I want to remove the opacity of the images in the HTML, but I can’t find where it is. Can you help me, please? I am using the eco theme. Thanks!

Hello, are You going to update Pivot? I mean something like new features, modules etc.? Last update was on 25 february
Thank You
As mentioned above:
At this point we don’t have a definite date for this update. We are working on a massive overhaul to Pivot that will bring its features up to speed with the more recent of our templates including all the features you have come to expect in the newer versions of Variant 
Stay tuned!
James
Is your site loading slowly? It could be your huge images!

Happy building!
Do you have a date for the planned release? Will the update be smooth with existing pages?
There is no date set yet I’m sorry. We will endeavour to make as little impact on existing pages but sometimes it is necessary to change things in order to improve.
Hello, is there a newer version of the Variant PageBuilder that we can download? thanks
Hello, at this point there is not. We are working on a massive overhaul to Pivot that will bring its features up to speed with the more recent of our templates including all the features you have come to expect in the newer versions of Variant

Please clarify if this question is for the HTML Template version or the WordPress Theme version. If you are using the HTML version, please open a ticket at mediumrare.ticksy.com and I’ll be able to help you out.

Hi,
We do not have plans to add Revolution Slider at this time.

Hello! Question before purchase: Is it possible to “float” the menu while scrolling, no matter the size of the browser and for mobile formats? Currently, it only floats on certain browser widths, and then it no longer floats beyond a certain point. I purchased your “Meetup” template (which is super awesome!), and the Meetup nav bar floats no matter the screen width. Thank you very much!
Hey there,
Thanks for considering Pivot!
You can override the standard functionality by using nav{ position: fixed; }
inside a media query, and place this inside custom.css although on some mobile devices, fixed positioning can tend to be a little wacky, hence we chose to use absolute positioning instead
Thanks! Will wait for your major update and purchase then for sure. All the best!
No worries 
Its 7 months since your last update, any new update soon?
Hey there,
We’ve got a Pivot update planned to bring various elements in to line with our newer templates, we are working our way toward this as we speak.
Stay tuned 
Great builder!! One question… How can I change the height of a header? I want to make it smaller.
Hey there,
Thanks! You can do this in the custom.css file, just target the headers class and specify the height like so:
.my-header{ height: 450px; }
Thanks for your quick help.
No worries 
One more question… For smaller screens, how can i make the menu toggle fixed in the top?

Hello, how can make the Logo bigger??? Is there an option?
Hey there, you can do this in custom.css with nav .logo{ max-width: ###px; }
Has anyone had issue using Google tag manager with this? I used the builder to build a page and have had major problems getting GTM to work: https://www.daydreamwebsites.com.au/services/responsive-landing-page-v2.html Next I’ll try not using the builder tool and just manually updating one of the index pages and see if that works. Any help would be appreciated though as it would save me alot of time
Hi there,
We have not experienced any issues with GTM but we can help with this – please open a ticket at mediumrare.ticksy.com and we will be able to offer the most in-depth support possible.
Looking forward to helping you out.

Hi,
Is it possible to change the word “projects” in general, for instance so the button says “See product”? The demo didn’t seem to let me change the text in the button.
- NP
Hey there,
Yes you can change that text in the HTML.
hi, i can see you have a few option html theme with page builder, which one is suitable for Internet Marketeer for optin etc?
another question, ist works with google drive hosting?
thanks Zarif
I would reccomend Launchkit for marketing purposes. I wouldn’t recomend Google Drive for hosting – there is no PHP for mail (which I’m guessing you’ll want for marketing purposes)
Pivot can support a slider with both photos and videos like Pangaea in your demo site?
Hello,
Yes it can

Hey guys,
i am not a coder or a programmer but it seems your page builder and templates look pretty cool. ANd i am deciding if it has all i Need for my Website. (Several Events a year online bookable with an Option to Register an account to get a Membership)
my question is : is there an Option if i buy This Template to let my clients create their own account so that they can Register create and become a member with Options to get a Membership on my Website? And if so. would this Programm/template have the Software already for These Actions so that i dont have to buy extra Software or plug ins?
I hope you can help me with my question.
Thanks
Patrick
Hey there Patrick,
Apologies for the delayed reply to your question.
The simple answer is no, there is no functionality for a client to register to create their own page. This isn’t really the intended purpose for Variant, what you’re referring to sounds more like a site building SaaS.
Cheers, Craig
