Themify Builder Documentation
This documentation is an extensive guide on how to use the Themify Builder, a drag and drop page builder with live edits and previews. Themify Builder works with WordPress posts and pages, as well as custom post types. Shortcodes and HTML tags are supported with the Text or HTML/Text module. The Builder can be used in both backend edit mode and frontend edit mode.
NOTE: The Themify Builder is included in the framework of all themes. If you are using a Themify theme, you don't need to install the standalone Builder plugin additionally.
To Start
To use the Builder to design your page layout, you would need to create a Page or Post first. Go to your site's WP-admin > Pages > Add New, then you will see the Builder interface in the backend. Click "Publish" to publish your page and then you can use the backend Builder interface or frontend to design your page layout. To switch to frontend: view the page on the frontend, then click "Turn On Builder" on the top admin bar and you will see the Builder interface to design your layout.
Backend Edit Mode
To use the Themify Builder in the backend:
- First add or edit a post/page.
- If you are using WordPress 5+ with Gutenberg enabled (default), you should see a Builder Block like the screenshot below.
- If Gutenberg is disabled, you will find the "Themify Builder" tab below the WordPress classic editor.
On the Builder Toolbar, you will find these buttons:
- Plus Button = To open module panel.
- Responsive Styling = Customize styling on Desktop, Tablet Landscape, Tablet Portrait, or Mobile.
- Undo/Redo = Undo/redo (you can use keyboard shortcuts Cmd+Z and Cmd+Shift+Z).
- Import = Import Builder content from a data file, existing posts, or pages.
- Export = Export the Builder content (export will generate a ZIP file which can be imported later using the import option).
- Layouts:
- Load Layout = Import pre-designed Builder Layouts to the current page.
- Save as layout = Save current layout to use on another page.
- Duplicate This Page = duplicate the page along with the Builder content.
- Page Custom CSS = Allows you to add custom CSS to the specific page.
- Interface Options = Choose your interface options such as enable hover mode and right-click menu.
- Help = Click to open the Builder Tutorial video lightbox and view the keyboard shortcuts.
- Save = Save the Builder content.
- Revisions = Revisions allow you backup and restore your previous layout. To access revisions, click on the arrow button beside the Save button. You can select to save or load a revision.
Adding Modules
- Click on the plus (+) icon found on either the top left of the toolbar or in the last row, to open the module panel.
- To add modules, you can drag & drop module to the canvas area or click on the green plus (+) button in the top right corner.
Row Options
To access the row options:
- If you have hover mode enabled, just hover over the row action button (the small purple dot). To enable/disable hover mode, go to the top toolbar > Interface Options, then toggle the "Hover Mode" switch off.
- If you have hover mode disabled, click the row action button or click any where on the row, then click the row button on the action breadcrumb.
On the row action, click on the gear icon to trigger the row option dropdown menu. The row option dropdown has these options:
- Responsive Grids: To have a different grid on desktop, tablet, and mobile: first click the device icon, then click the row grid icon.
- Row Grids: You can also set the column arrangement on mobile or tablet.
- Column Alignment: Set modules in the entire row to top, middle, or bottom alignment (Click here for more info).
- Column Direction: Set column float direction either from left-to-right or right-to-left.
- Column Gutter: The spacing/gap between columns.
- Column Height: By default, all columns within the row are full height. You can change it to auto height which means the height of the column will vary depending on the content inside the column.
On the row option dropdown menu, click the "Row Options" tab to see more options:
- Row Width:
- Default = Row background and row content area is within the container width.
- Boxed = Row background will be fullwidth, but the row content area will be within the container width.
- Fullwidth = Both row background and row content area will be fullwidth completely.
- Row Height:
- Default = Row height varies depending on the content inside the row.
- Full Height = Row will be 100vh (viewport height) and the content inside will be by default middle aligned vertically.
- CSS Class: Add additional custom CSS classes.
- Row Anchor: Add row anchor for scrollTo anchor feature.
- ID Name: Add ID name for Sticky Scrolling feature.
Frontend Edit Mode
The frontend edit mode works similar to the backend mode except it provides a live preview.
To use the Themify Builder on the frontend:
- View any post or page on the frontend (NOTE: WordPress' default homepage is actually a blog archive page, so you would need to create a static front page to use the Builder on a homepage).
- On the frontend, from the top admin bar (make sure your WP Admin Toolbar is enabled), click "Turn On Builder".
- You will see the Builder toolbar at the top.
- Click on the green (+) icon found on the top left corner, or in the last row to open the module container.
- Drag and drop, or click the green (+) button, to add a module to the column/grid.
- On the frontend, you can dock the panel to either left or right side by dragging the panel to the left/right edge of the screen.
Using Builder on Homepage
The default WordPress homepage is actually a blog archive page which shows all of your latest posts. Please note that the Builder does not work on archive pages. To use the Builder on the homepage, first you must create a static page (e.g. "Home") and then go to WP Settings > Reading and set that "Home" static page as the front page.
To use the Themify Builder on the homepage:
- First add a new page (e.g. Home).
- Publish the page and create the Builder layout as you like.
- When you are done, go to WP Settings > Reading, on the "Front page displays" option, select the "A static page" radio button, then from the "Front page" dropdown menu, select the "Home" page that you've created.
- Leave the "Posts page" option empty (if you need to create a "Blog" page, please refer to this tutorial).
Responsive Grids
The Builder grid is responsive by default. But if you want the row grid to be different on tablet and mobile, you can use the responsive grid feature. For example: you can set the row grid to a 4-column on desktop, then change it to a 2-column on tablet, and a 1-column on mobile.
To use responsive grids:
- On desktop mode, select your desired row grids
- To change a row grid on tablet: click on the tablet icon on the toolbar, then change the row grid option
- To change a row grid on mobile: click on the mobile icon on the toolbar, then change the row grid again
Responsive Styling
This features allows you to style how your site looks like on a tablet, mobile, or desktop. To access this feature, first turn on the Builder > on the Builder toolbar select to view your site on Desktop, Tablet Landscape, Tablet Portrait, or Mobile. When these icons are selected you'll see a live preview where you can customize the styling and the module data.
Notes: When you edit the styling in both tablet or mobile view, you can add or edit the Builder content. But when you do this, note that it will apply on the desktop version as well. Only the styling is applied specific to the device you're viewing (ie. mobile styling only applies on mobile).

Layout Parts
Layout Parts are re-usable parts of a layout that can be included into the Builder content or anywhere in the post content or widget using its shortcode. Layout Parts can be edited live on the spot without directing yourself to another page or opening a lightbox. When the Layout Part is updated, any post or page using that same Layout Part will be also updated simultaneously. Layout Parts are extremely useful for showing the same content in multiple areas/pages (e.g. client logos, contact info/map, banner ads, service list, etc.).
How to create Layout Parts
You can create Layout Parts from scratch or by saving any existing module/row.
Method 1) Save any existing row/module as a Layout Part:
To save any row/module as a Layout Part, click on the element, then click on the save () icon, enter the title and check the "Layout Part" checkbox.
Method 2) Create Layout Parts from scratch:
- Go to WordPress Admin > Themify > Builder Layout Parts.
- Click on "Add New" button.
- Enter the title, upload the Featured Image (optional) and click "Publish".
- Use the Builder edit panel to create the Layout as desired and click "Save" when you are done.
- The new Layout Parts will be available on the "Saved > Parts" tab of the module panel.
How to display the Layout Parts
There are 2 methods to show the Layout Parts:
- Using the "Layout Part" module.
- Using the [themify_layout_part] shortcode.
Method 1) Using the "Layout Part" module
The "Layout Part" module works exactly the same as all other modules. Simply drop in the "Layout Part" module and select the Layout Part.
Method 2) Using the [themify_layout_part] shortcode
You can also display Layout Parts using the following shortcodes in the post content, Text widget, and inject it in the page using the Hook Content.
The Layout Part can be queried by its slug name or post ID.
- [themify_layout_part slug="client-logos"] = this means show the layout part with slug name 'client-logos'.
- [themify_layout_part id="12"] = this means show the layout part ID# 12 (find out how to post the ID number).
- You can get the Layout Part shortcode from WP-Admin > Themify > Layout Parts
Mega Menu
The Mega Menu feature enables you to make the most of the WordPress menu by showcasing featured posts and multi-column dropdowns with various links and widgets.
To use the Mega Menu:
- To make use of the Mega Menu feature, you'll first need to set up the menu at WP-Admin > Appearance > Menus.
- Once you've created the menu (follow the steps below), you can assign that menu as the 'Main Navigation,' and the mega menu will appear in the primary navigation area of your theme. Note: Mega menu support is available only in the following themes: Ultra, Shoppe, Music, Parallax, Fullpane, Peak, and Magazine. If your theme doesn't support the mega menu feature, you can still use the Builder Menu module to display it.
- You can display the mega menu using the Builder's Menu module. Simply drop in a Menu module, choose the menu you've configured with the mega menu feature, and then enable the "Mega Menu" option.
- To create Mega Posts on the mega menu dropdown:
- Go to WP-Admin > Appearance > Menus, add a new menu or edit any existing menu.
- Add a "Pages" or "Custom Links" and select "Mega Posts" on the Mega Menu dropdown option.
- Next, include 'Tags' or 'Categories' as link types in the nested menu. For instance, you would set the Blog page link as the parent link and then nest the categories/tags links. When users hover over the Blog link, they will be able to see the recent posts of the corresponding categories/tags within the mega menu dropdown.
- Note: The nested items must be Tags or Categories. This will display recent posts associated with the chosen tag/category. If the Tags option is not visible, click on the 'Screen Options' located in the top-right corner, and ensure that the 'Tags' option is checked.
- To set Fullwidth Columns:
- Add a "Pages" or "Custom Links" and select "Fullwidth Columns" on the Mega Menu dropdown option.

- To Import: on the Builder Toolbar, click Import, then click either import from a zip file or from existing posts/pages.
ScrollTo Row Anchor Menu (Single Page Menu)
To achieve scrollTo row anchor:
- Step 1) First enter in a Row Anchor name in Row Options (e.g. "portfolio")
- Step 2) Then go to WP-Admin > Menus and create a new menu. Add a new "Custom Links", on the URL option, enter the anchor name with a number sign (#) in front of it (eg. "#portfolio")
- Result: When the #portfolio link is clicked, or when users go the URL with the #portfolio anchor (e.g. http://yoursite.com#portfolio), it will scroll to the row where you've specified that Row Anchor = "portfolio"
Fullwidth Page Layout
Fullwidth layout is only available in Themify themes. You can create a complete fullwidth page without a sidebar and page title.
To set a fullwidth layout (available in Themify themes only):

- Repeat: Enter the number of times you'd like the animation to repeat.
- Hover Animation:
Animation will trigger when you hover over the element.
Scroll Effects
A scroll effect is the movement of an element that is triggered by the scrolling of a page (ie. as you scroll the page, the element has an animation effect). View the demo here to see how it works.
To enable scroll effects:
- Edit any module or row, go to the Animations tab > Effects > Motion and you'll see all of the scroll effects listed:
- Vertical: Make an element scroll up or down, at various speeds and viewport.
- Horizontal: Make an element scroll left or right, at various speeds and viewport.
- Transparency: Make an element fade in, fade out, fade in out, or fade out in.
- Blur: Make an element's blur effect fade in, fade out, fade in out, or fade out in.
- Rotate: Make an element rotate left or right, at various speeds and origin points.
- Scale: Make an element grow bigger or shrink smaller, at various speeds and origin points.
Vertical Scroll:
To enable vertical scroll, select a Direction, Speed, and Viewport:
- Direction: select 'Up' or 'Down' to change the direction your element travels (up moves the element to the top of the screen, down moves the element to the bottom of the screen)
- Speed: selecting a speed will change how fast or slow the scroll effect animates (level 1 is the slowest, 10 is the fastest)
- Viewport: selecting a viewport range will control where on your screen an element's scroll effect will be active (0% is at the very bottom of your browser's screen, 100% is at the very top of the browser's screen)
Horizontal Scroll:
To enable horizontal scroll, select a Direction, Speed, and Viewport:
- Direction: select 'To Left' or 'To Right' to change the direction your element travels (left makes the element move toward the left of the screen, right makes the element move toward the right of the screen)
- Speed: selecting a speed will change how fast or slow the scroll effect animates (level 1 is the slowest, 10 is the fastest)
- Viewport: selecting a viewport range will control where on your screen an element's scroll effect will be active (0% is at the very bottom of your browser's screen, 100% is at the very top of the browser's screen)
TIP: To create a Diagonal Scroll effect, add both a Vertical + Horizontal Scroll!
To enable transparency, select a Direction and Viewport:
- Direction: select one of the following options
- Fade In: the element will fade in from invisible to visible
- Fade Out: the element will fade out from visible to invisible
- Fade Out In: the element will fade out, then fade back in
- Fade In Out: the element will fade in, then fade back out
- Viewport: selecting a viewport range will control where on your screen an element's scroll effect will be active (0% is at the very bottom of your browser's screen, 100% is at the very top of the browser's screen)
To enable blur, select a Direction, Level, and Viewport:
- Direction:
- Fade In: the element will go from blurry to clear
- Fade Out: the element will go from clear to blurry
- Level: selecting a level will determine the severity of the blur effect (level 1 is the least blurry, level 10 is the most blurry)
- Viewport: selecting a viewport range will control where on your screen an element's scroll effect will be active (0% is at the very bottom of your browser's screen, 100% is at the very top of the browser's screen)
To enable rotate, select a Direction, Number of Spins, Transform Origin, and Viewport:
- Direction: select 'To Left' or 'To Right' to change the direction your element will spin (left makes the element spin counter-clockwise, right makes the element spin clockwise)
- Number of Spins: select a number to determine the number of spins you want
- TIP: For more subtle movements, opt for any decimal numbers under 1. For eg. A spin number of 0.25 will cause a quarter turn, or 0.05 will cause an even slighter movement)
- Transform Origin: the transform origin determines at which point on the element the spin will occur. Select a transform origin by dragging the blue dot anywhere in the transform origin box or leave it at the default Center, Center position. (eg. Selecting a transform origin of Top Left means that the Top Left corner of the element will be the most static and the rest of the element will spin around this origin point)
- Viewport: selecting a viewport range will control where on your screen an element's scroll effect will be active (0% is at the very bottom of your browser's screen, 100% is at the very top of the browser's screen)
TIP: To create cool multiple effects, you can set one or two scroll effects, for example, to start at 10-40%, and a third and fourth to begin at 41-90%.
To enable scale, select a Direction, Scale Ratio, Transform Origin, and Viewport:
- Direction: select 'Scale Up' or 'Scale Down' to change the way the element will resize (Scale Up increases the element's size, Scale Down decreases the element's size)
- Scale Ratio: select a number to determine the how big or small the element will resize to relative to it's current size
- TIP: Scale Up at a Scale Ratio of 1.1 means the element will become 10% bigger, a Scale Ratio of 2 means the element will double in size
- Transform Origin: the transform origin determines at which point on the element the scale will occur. Select a transform origin by dragging the blue dot anywhere in the transform origin box or leave it at the default Center, Center position.
- Viewport: selecting a viewport range will control where on your screen an element's scroll effect will be active (0% is at the very bottom of your browser's screen, 100% is at the very top of the browser's screen)
TIP: To check your scroll effects on the fly, keep another tab open of the live page you're working on to refresh and quickly view your changes. View our demo here for inspiration.
Builder Sticky
The sticky effect allows you to make certain rows/modules stick on the screen when it scrolls to a certain point.
To apply: edit any row or module and click on the "Animation" tab, click on the "Sticky" tab, and you'll see the following options:
- Sticky:
- Check "Stick at" checkbox and then select the position, either "Top Position" or "Bottom Position", that you'd like the module to stick at. Then enter the position value (eg. if you select stick at top position 0px, it means the element will stick when it is scrolled to 0px from the top of the page).
- If you don't enable the "un-stick" option, the element will remain sticky. With the un-sticky option, you can specify when to un-stick the element. To specify un-stick: check "Un-stick when" checkbox, then select the un-stick conditions (eg. if you select un-stick when row #contact-row hits this element, it means the element will un-stick when the row with the ID name 'contact-row' scrolls to the element).
- Z-index: Module with a greater stack order number is always in front of a module with a lower stack order. If you find an element is behind a certain element, you can increase the z-index to adjust the stacking order.
Global Style
Global Style (GS) is a time-saving feature that allows you to reuse the same styling in multiple instances across the entire site. Simply style any row, column, or module to your liking, then save it as a GS (Global Style), and reuse it by inserting it onto any other element of your choice. When you edit a GS, all the changes are automatically applied to any element using that same GS (read the announcement post for more details).
How to Save Styling as a Global Style:
You can save any element's style settings as a Global Style to have for safe keeping, or to reuse it on another module.
- To save as a Global Style: edit any module or row, go to the Styling tab > click the Global Styles big paintbrush icon (in the top right corner), click 'Save as Global Style', enter a Global Style name, click 'Yes' to apply your new Global Style.
How to Insert a Global Style:
You can reuse a Global Style by inserting it onto another module of your choice. NOTE: Once you insert a GS, the paint icon will be highlighted in a purple colour to indicate that a GS has been inserted.
- To insert a Global Style: edit any module or row, go to the Styling tab > click the Global Styles paint icon, click 'Insert Global Style' and select your Global Style of choice.
How to Edit a Global Style:
You can edit any saved Global Style. NOTE: Any changes you make will automatically be reflected on any module that is occupied by that same Global Style (ie. the changes will apply site-wide on any module with that GS).
- To edit a Global Style: edit any module or row that has an existing Global Style inserted, go to the Styling tab > click the Global Styles paint icon, click the pencil icon next to the Global Style name, make your styling changes, then click 'Save Style' to save.
How to Import, Export, and Delete a Global Style (In the Backend):
You can manage all of your Global Styles on the backend, including importing, exporting, deleting, and editing any saved Global Style.
To access the backend of Global Styles:
Option A) Edit any module or row that has a GS inserted, go to the Styling tab > click the Global Styles paint icon, click 'Insert Global Styles' > click 'Manage Styles' from the top right corner.
Option B) Go to WP Admin > Themify > Global Style.
On the GS backend, you can do the following:
- Export: Click the green export icon to export a GS.
- Import: Click the import button to import a GS.
- Delete: Click the X icon to delete a GS. NOTE: Once you delete a GS, it will affect the styling of all modules that have the GS inserted throughout the entire site.
- Edit: Click the thumbnail to edit the GS.
Visibility Control
You can set the rows and modules to be visible on specific device views (desktop, tablet, and mobile). By default, all device views are visible.
- To set Visibility: edit any row or module, click on the Styling tab, toggle the buttons to hide the device view.
- Desktop = Hide desktop will hide object when viewport is larger than 1024px.
- Tablet = Hide tablet will hide object when viewport is between 680px and 1024px.
- Tablet Landscape = Hide tablet will hide object when viewport is between 680px and 1024px and the orientation is on landscape mode.
- Mobile = Hide mobile will hide object when viewport is less than 680px.
- Sticky Visibility = The element will be hidden when its parent row's sticky effect is active.
- Hide All = Means the element will be hidden on all devices.
Page Break
This new feature allows you to break your Builder layout into multiple pages. Making your pages load faster while still allowing your readers access to read all of your content.
How to use Page Break:
- To add a Page Break: on the module panel, drag the "Page Break" module under the row where you want to break the page. You can drop as many Page Break modules as you want (each Page Break module will create an inner page).
- To remove the dropped Page Break: hover over the Page Break module on the layout and click on the "X" button.
Builder Revisions gives you a "save as" like feature, allowing you to save your Builder layout with unlimited versions. The Builder will log this revision and allow you to revert back to it, if you'd like. This is great for users who suddenly make a mistake when changing something from their site and don't know how to fix it.
- To save Revisions: on the frontend Builder, next to the Save button, hover over the arrow and select "Save as Revision"
- To load Revisions: select "Load Revision" and it will prompt you whether to save the current state before loading a revision.
- NOTE: If the revision list on the option lightbox shows a gray color and the revision link is not clickable, it means the revision does not have a Builder layout, thus it won't allow you to load an empty Builder revision.
More Tag
You can insert a read more button to trim down the text and focus on the visuals in the text module. Readers who want to read the full content can click the "read more" button.
To add a More Tag:

Themify Builder Settings
Builder Settings (Themify theme version)
If you are using a Themify theme, the Builder settings can be found in the Themify panel > Settings > Themify Builder.
On the Builder setting panel, you should see:
- Themify Builder Options:
- Enable/disable the Builder completely (NOTE: when the Builder is disabled, the entire Builder content will not appear on all pages)
- Animation Effects:
- Disable appearance animation, parallax background, float scrolling and sticky scrolling on tablet, mobile, or on all devices.
- Builder Modules:
- Disable the modules individually (NOTE: when a module is excluded, only the excluded module will not appear on the page).
- Tools:
- Find & Replace: Find and replace all content entered in the Builder. For example: if you've moved to another domain, you can use the find & replace tool to replace all URLs in the Builder to the new domain.
- Regenerate CSS Files: Use this tool to regenerate the Builder styling (ie. it will re-generate the Builder styling CSS files on the server when a visitor views the page).
- Maintenance Mode: Enable maintenance mode if you don't want public visitors to see your site (ie. when you are still building the site or in the progress of setting up something on the site, you can use this tool to display a maintenance/coming soon page). When the maintenance mode is enabled, all pages on the frontend will be redirected to the selected maintenance page.
Builder Settings (Builder plugin version)
If you are using the Themify Builder plugin, the Builder settings can be found on the WordPress admin sidebar > Themify Builder > Settings. The available options on the Builder plugin settings are the same as the Themify settings (only the option interface is different).
Builder Cache & Minified Scripts
To enable script minification & Builder Cache:
- Go to Themify panel > Theme Settings > Builder Cache & Minified Scripts
- Select "Enable minification" radio to enable it. You can also enable Builder cache and gzip caching.
NOTE: If you don't see the Builder Script Minification option in the Theme Settings option, it means caching is not supported with your server (either due to old PHP version or server not permitting to write cache files).
Builder Static Content
If you have WordPress Gutenberg editor enabled (Gutenberg is the new WP editor introduced in v5), you will see the Builder Block which you can move up/down like all other Gutenberg Blocks. If you have Gutenberg editor disabled, you will see the Builder content placeholder like the screen below.
The Builder content placeholder represents where the Builder content will be displayed. You can add content before or after the content placeholder. If you don't see the Builder Content Placeholder, make sure you are using the latest version and try to re-save the post/page again.
- The Builder static content serves as your fallback content when the Builder is disabled/removed. It also allows WordPress to search your content in the Builder.
- When you update the post/page, the Builder static content will refresh/regenerate (this is normal). It will not appear on the frontend when the Builder is active.
- The Builder Content Placeholder badge only applies to WordPress versions prior to 5.0 or if you have Gutenberg disabled. If you are using WP 5.0+, the Builder content is treated as a Gutenberg Block.
Custom CSS Class
Custom CSS class is used by developers to write custom CSS to apply styling to specific elements that contain the CSS class name. The advantage of using custom CSS class is when you update the CSS styling, it will apply to all elements that contain the target class name. You only need to write the custom CSS once, then it can be reused to as many elements as you want by adding the custom class name.
Sample Usage:
- Lets say you have a few rows or modules that you want to have the same yellow background and black text color, you would add 'yellow-box' in the "Additional CSS Class" field (all rows and modules have this field in the option lightbox).
- Then add the sample custom CSS as below. Now whichever rows or modules have that additional CSS class will have a yellow background with black text styling. When you change the CSS code, it will apply to elements automatically without having to edit the Builder.
.yellow-box {
background: #FFEB3B;
color: #000000;
Builder Addons
The Builder is extendable with Addons. Installing Builder Addons is the same as installing standard WordPress plugins. Here is a detailed tutorial on how to install addons.
- Does the Builder work on the homepage?
The Builder works with all posts, pages, and any post type that has the_content enabled. The default WordPress homepage is actually an archive page that shows the latest posts. To use the Builder on the homepage, first create a new Page and then assign that page as the Front Page in WP > Settings > Reading.
- I've logged in, but I don't see the WP admin top bar. Why?
If you don't see the top admin bar (WP Admin Topbar) on the frontend, it is likely disabled. To enable top admin bar, edit your user Profile and check the "Show Toolbar when viewing site" option.
- I can turn on the Builder, but there is no grid to drop modules.
If you don't see the Builder grid after turning on the Builder (but the module panel presents), it is likely because the template does not have the required WordPress function, the_content() or the template is using the_excerpt(). In this case, try to add a new post or page.
- The Builder won't turn on in the frontend. Why?
- First, make sure that you are viewing a single post or page, not an archive page (examples of archive page: search, tag, category, taxonomy archive, etc.).
- Second, make sure the top admin toolbar is enabled in your WordPress site.
- Lastly, it is likely due to plugin conflicts. Try to disable all plugins and check again.
- Can I use the Builder to edit the header, sidebar, and footer?
You can use Builder Pro to do this. It allows you to create custom header, footer, and other templates for post, page, WooCommerce and custom post types.
- I don't use the Builder. Can I disable it?
Method 1) You can disable the Builder in Themify > Settings > Themify Builder. If you are using the standalone Builder Plugin, deactivate the plugin will disable the Builder.
Method 2) You can also disable the Builder in the child theme functions.php with this code:
<?php add_filter('themify_enable_builder','custom_disable_builder',100,1); if(!function_exists('custom_disable_builder')){ function custom_disable_builder($enable){ return 'disable'; } } ?>
To hide the Themify Builder tab on the Themify panel:
- Paste the following code in the child theme functions.php:
/* Add custom styles for admin part */ function custom_child_admin_stylesheet() { wp_enqueue_style( 'child-admin-style', trailingslashit( get_stylesheet_directory_uri() ) . 'child-admin-style.css' ); } add_action( 'admin_enqueue_scripts', 'custom_child_admin_stylesheet' );
- Create a child-admin-style.css file. In the css file, paste the following code:
#themify li[aria-controls="setting-themify-builder"] { display: none; }
- Once I disable the Builder, will the layouts I created with the Builder show?
No, the Builder is required to render the layouts that are created with the Builder. Once the Builder is disabled, it will show the static content of the Builder (ie. it will show the text content without the dynamic content and styling).
- Where are the old custom post types (Slide, Highlight, Portfolio, and Testimonial)?
Note: The updated Themify framework 2.1.2 and Builder plugin 1.3.1. have obsolesced the following custom post types: Slide, Highlight, Portfolio, and Testimonial. To provide backward compatibility, the Highlight posts will remain functional if your site has existing Highlight posts. If you would like to continue using these custom post types, we've created a free plugin called Builder Deprecated CPT. This plugin will unlock the deprecated custom post types.
- When I try to import/upload Builder layouts zip or txt file, it says "Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reason"?
This is because the file format is not allowed in your WordPress network setting. To allow more file extensions, please go to your WP Network Admin > Settings > "Upload File Type" > Add file format extensions (i.e. txt zip).
- My WP Admin is HTTPS, when I switch to frontend that is HTTP, the Builder doesn't work.
When you login in admin that is secured (HTTPS), the login session is captured as HTTPS domain. If your frontend URL is not HTTPS, the frontend Builder will not work because the browser treats HTTPS as a different domain. To fix this: go to WP Admin > Settings, change the "WordPress Address" and "Site Address" to HTTPS URL.
- How do I trigger an active Tab or Accordion by using URL hash?
First drop in a Tab module and create the tabs as you like. View the page on the frontend with Google Chrome, right-click on the tab navigation (https://cl.ly/2g2n183x2n3c) and select "Copy Link Address", now you can paste that URL as hyperlink (eg. the link URL would be something like http://yoursite.com/page-url/#tab-tab-6925-0-0-0-6925-2). This works the same for Accordion module (just right-click on the accordion title and then copy link).
- I'm using a Themify theme and Builder, there is padding between the header and content area. How to remove it?
That is the content container padding. To remove it, edit the page in the backend, on Themify Custom Panel, select "Content Width = Fullwidth".
- Disable URL change with scrollTo anchors
On the row anchor option, you can select "Hide anchor on URL" or you can disable it with custom code: https://themify.me/docs/theme-code-snippets#disable-url-change-with-scrollto-anchors
- Offset scrollTo position with third party themes
Using ScrollTo anchor feature in Builder, by default it scrolls to the top of the row. To set the scrollTo position, go to Themify > Theme Settings > Themify Builder, enter the "ScrollTo Offset" position.
- The theme/Builder shows broken interface due to .gz issue
Make sure your server supports .gz file. Our themes come with pre-packaged .gz compressed files to reduce file size. On Nginx server, it picks up .gz file and serves them instead of the actual asset. Please contact your host provider and ask them to enable this feature.
- How to override Builder Post module loop template
If you are using a Themify theme: you would create a child theme, then copy
includes/loop.phpfile from the parent theme to
<your-child-theme>/includes/loop.php. Now you can edit the child theme loop template as you want. If you want to override the loop template for other post types, you would rename it to "loop-{posttype}.php" wherein "posttype" is the slug name of your post type. For example, if you have a
moviepost type, the file name and path should be:
If you are using the Builder plugin:
the step is same as above, but the file and folder path is different. You would copy the post template from

1 And it came to pass a long time after that the LORD had given rest unto Israel from all their enemies round about, that Joshua waxed old and stricken in age.
2 And Joshua called for all Israel, and for their elders, and for their heads, and for their judges, and for their officers, and said unto them, I am old and stricken in age:
3 And ye have seen all that the LORD your God hath done unto all these nations because of you; for the LORD your God is he that hath fought for you.
4 Behold, I have divided unto you by lot these nations that remain, to be an inheritance for your tribes, from Jordan, with all the nations that I have cut off, even unto the great sea westward.
5 And the LORD your God, he shall expel them from before you, and drive them from out of your sight; and ye shall possess their land, as the LORD your God hath promised unto you.
6 Be ye therefore very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that ye turn not aside therefrom to the right hand or to the left;
7 That ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear by them, neither serve them, nor bow yourselves unto them:
8 But cleave unto the LORD your God, as ye have done unto this day.
9 For the LORD hath driven out from before you great nations and strong: but as for you, no man hath been able to stand before you unto this day.
10 One man of you shall chase a thousand: for the LORD your God, he it is that fighteth for you, as he hath promised you.
11 Take good heed therefore unto yourselves, that ye love the LORD your God.
12 Else if ye do in any wise go back, and cleave unto the remnant of these nations, even these that remain among you, and shall make marriages with them, and go in unto them, and they to you:
13 Know for a certainty that the LORD your God will no more drive out any of these nations from before you; but they shall be snares and traps unto you, and scourges in your sides, and thorns in your eyes, until ye perish from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you.
14 And, behold, this day I am going the way of all the earth: and ye know in all your hearts and in all your souls, that not one thing hath failed of all the good things which the LORD your God spake concerning you; all are come to pass unto you, and not one thing hath failed thereof.
15 Therefore it shall come to pass, that as all good things are come upon you, which the LORD your God promised you; so shall the LORD bring upon you all evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you.
16 When ye have transgressed the covenant of the LORD your God, which he commanded you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed yourselves to them; then shall the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and ye shall perish quickly from off the good land which he hath given unto you.
Joshua's exhortation before his death. (1-10) Joshua warns the people of idolatry. (11-16)1-10 Joshua was old and dying, let them observe what he said now. He put them in mind of the great things God had done for them in his days. He exhorted them to be very courageous. Keep with care, do with diligence, and regard with sincerity what is written. Also, very cautiously to endeavour that the heathen idolatry may be forgotten, so that it may never be revived. It is sad that among Christians the names of the heathen gods are so commonly used, and made so familiar as they are. Joshua exhorts them to be very constant. There might be many things amiss among them, but they had not forsaken the Lord their God; the way to make people better, is to make the best of them.
11-16 Would we cleave to the Lord, we must always stand upon our guard, for many a soul is lost through carelessness. Love the Lord your God, and you will not leave him. Has God been thus true to you? Be not you false to him. He is faithful that has promised, #Heb 10:23|. The experience of every Christian witnesses the same truth. Conflicts may have been severe and long, trials great and many; but at the last he will acknowledge that goodness and mercy followed him all the days of his life. Joshua states the fatal consequences of going back; know for a certainty it will be your ruin. The first step would be, friendship with idolaters; the next would be, marrying with them; the end of that would be, serving their gods. Thus the way of sin is down-hill, and those who have fellowship with sinners, cannot avoid having fellowship with sin. He describes the destruction he warns them of. The goodness of the heavenly Canaan, and the free and sure grant God has made of it, will add to the misery of those who shall for ever be shut out from it. Nothing will make them see how wretched they are, so much, as to see how happy they might have been. Let us watch and pray against temptation. Let us trust in God's faithfulness, love, and power; let us plead his promises, and cleave to his commandments, then we shall be happy in life, in death, and for ever.

It's been mentioned to me by several people that TS 16949 requires that the "as found" (sometimes known as the "as received") condition is required to be documented on calibration certificates. However, I've read 7.6.2 several times and I can't find where it requires that.
Can you point me to the section that is being understood to mean the "as found" must be included?
Thank you for your question.
Although recording the as-received readings over the range of calibration is a best practice, it is not required by ISO/TS 16949. Clause 7.6.2 – Calibration/Verification Records requires only that "records……shall include, any out-of-specification readings as received for calibration/verification." Therefore, "as found" readings are only required to be recorded if they are out of specification. If they are within specification, they are not.

LONDON (Reuters) – Britain recorded its biggest rise in foreign workers since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in the year to June, driven overwhelmingly by workers from outside the European Union, official figures showed on Tuesday.
Since January 2021, most EU citizens not already working in Britain must be sponsored by an employer and be paid a salary that does not significantly undercut existing wages, after losing their previous almost-unrestricted right to work.
The post-Brexit change puts EU migrants on the same footing as those from the rest of the world, but has drawn complaints from employers who find the process bureaucratic, and a non-starter for most jobs that pay less than 25,600 pounds ($30,760) a year.
Tuesday's Office for National Statistics data showed the number of foreign-born workers in Britain rose by 223,000 in the year to the end of June, up from an increase of 184,000 in the year to March and the biggest rise since early 2020.
Migration – a key source of worker shortages through the pandemic – is showing some signs of bouncing back," said James Smith, an economist at ING.
The data may be welcomed by the Bank of England which is worried that a shortage of candidates to fill jobs could push up wages too quickly and aggravate the recent jump in inflation.
Samuel Tombs, at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said migration was likely to rise further as the salary thresholds for sponsoring work visas had not been raised in line with average wages, which are 5.1% higher than a year ago.
The latest figures confirm a big shift in migration patterns compared with before Brexit.
Non-EU workers increased by 189,000 while the number of EU workers rose by 34,000 over the past year.
Previous government data showed India, Nigeria and the Philippines were the countries whose nationals received the most skilled work visas in the year to March.
By contrast, more than a million EU workers moved to Britain between the 2008-09 financial crisis and June 2016's Brexit referendum, since when the number of EU-born workers in employment has broadly stabilised at slightly under 2.4 million.
The number of non-EU workers employed in Britain has risen to 3.9 million from 3.1 million in the six years since June 2016.

Message conflation is an advanced topic. Most message types will not make use of this feature.
If a conflatable message is posted to a handler while another
conflatable message of the same
type has already been posted
to the handler, the
conflate() method of the existing message
will be invoked. If that method returns
true, the new message
will not be enqueued. This allows messages to be compressed, so
that only a single instance of the message type is processed per

InkRepublic.com - Review of InkRepublic Artisan 50 Dye Inks and CIS System
May 4th, 2011
Jim Harlan
Rockville, UT
Artisan 50 Inks vs. The Refrigerator!
The highest honor any photograph can receive is being placed on someone's refrigerator. I have received that honor several times in my life. However, it is a greatly muted when I see that the inks from my inkjet have faded over time.
The fades happened way back with my Epson 1280 with Epson inks. It was much improved with the Epson 220 but the ink cost was too high. Then I switched to the InkRepublic dye inks and though the price was right the fade was back. I considered switching to the pigment inks but I couldn't stand the thought that the 'snap' that my dye inks delivered would be sacrificed to the longevity of the pigment inks.
Next, I started out a new Epson 280 with the InkRepublic dye inks and while they looked great they faded on the refrigerator test. When my 280 died, I got an Epson Artisan 50 which is the same machine and the inks faded as quickly.
Then I discovered the InkRepublic Artisan Inks. I got 'em in, purged my old inks, and got the Artisan inks going. After calibrating the 'snap' was still there and the prints looked great. I set up a print for the acid test - the refrigerator.
It's been up for 9 months now and still looks great! I put another copy outside in the sun and the UV rays got to it in a couple weeks, so it's not perfect, but must refrigerators don't get that much direct sunlight.
The InkRepublic Artisan inks with the Epson Artisan are a great combination! That and I can print forever very cheaply with the InkRepublic continuous inking system.
Thank you InkRepublic for a great product!
Jim in Utah

Work Hard Pray Hard
One of the city's oldest churches in Brussels is a medieval stone's throw from Grand Place. Established by the Brothers of Mercy in the 13th century, St Mary Magdalene is something of a miraculous survival. Two aisles were added in the 15th century and then 200 years later, the whole church was rebuilt. It was abandoned in the early 20th century and almost demolished during urban redevelopment. Fortunately, its historic and architectural value was finally recognised in the 1950s when the building was restored. The Chapel of St Anne, formerly on nearby Rue de la Montagne, was rebuilt and attached to the church. The 1615 baroque stone façade of St Anne's contrasts with the gothic brick elevations of St Mary's. Yet the building displays a remarkable unity, a testament to mid 20th century good heritage practice.

Saturday 22 June from 11am – 2pm at the Kaeo Union Church Hall
Join the township of Kaeo for a Family Day and Fund Raiser for the Kaeo's Junior Netball teams with speeches, face painting, bands, a sausage sizzle and refreshments. "It's also an opportunity we are taking to talk about family violence and the violence against our whānau, family and women," says Hillary Sheard, one of the local organisers.
"Decisions determine destiny, and in our community we need to take the right decisions to end the violence which is destroying lives. That means taking personal responsibility to end the violence of all the members of our community.
"We all have women and children in our lives, and that's why we are partnering with the White Ribbon Riders who are riding in to support our efforts to draw attention to the violence and our hope that we can find a solution.
"White Ribbon asks you to take the pledge to never commit condone or remain silent about violence towards women. You can do this by wearing a white ribbon and showing that you will not condone violent behaviour.
"We know that most people in our community are not violent, but we all know people who are. They can be members of your family, your sports team or your workmates. We are saying that's it's not ok to stand by while others are violent. It is our responsibility to take action. That decision to stand up and be counted will determine the destiny of our community.
"Join us on Saturday 22 June at the Kaeo Union Church Hall from 11am to 2pm for a Family Fun Day where you can enjoy the festivities, meet the amazing White Ribbon Riders and most importantly send a signal to everyone in our community, that we will not tolerate the violence any longer." Hillary Sheard
The White Ribbon Riders strongly believe that if our society is to be one in which we all thrive, then men need to stand up. The White Ribbon Campaign presents men as part of the solution and Phil Pikea from the Bream Bay Trust agrees. "It starts with personal responsibility and resonates outwards. We have a responsibility to our families, the people we work with, the mates on your team, our friends. If you as a man stand up and recite the White Ribbon Pledge – to never commit condone or remain silent about men's violence to women (and children) then we can make a difference. The White Ribbon Riders are coming to this wonderful event to stand with Kaeo, not in judgement, but as men who want to support our brothers." Phil Paikea
- For further details of the event contact Hillary Sheard

Greek Style Mosaics
Exactly like Roman mosaics, Greek mosaics were designed for many purposes. Particularly beautiful for their artistry and storytelling, Greek mosaics were used to decorate floorings, columns, walls, fountains and garden paths, but also churches and important architectural projects. Greek mosaic is mainly known for depicting the myths of the ancient Greeks, beautifully detailing gods in action, whether fighting battles or riding strange animals.
Today, even if the contemporary Greek mosaics do not illustrate Greek gods, family or architecture, they still retain some patterns of the ancient Greek art such as the Greek key trim or other pattern and border designs influenced by the Greek elements.
Check our Mosaic Medallions, Mosaic Borders , and Mosaic Figures collections to see the different Greek mosaic designs we have.

A ring with 12638 diamonds sets a Guinness World Record
|Date Added: January 04, 2021 01:33:02 PM
|Author: Sutra Web Directory
|Category: Arts & Humanities: Events
How many diamonds can fit in a single ring?
The answer, according to the new Guinness World Records book, is 12,638.
Harshit Bansal, founder of Renani Jewels in Meerut, India, set the record with his impressive design on December 21, 2020.
The ring, named the Marigold, or "The Ring of Prosperity," has a circular band with an ornate floral design, complete with thousands of 38.08 carat natural diamonds, according to Guinness. The ring weighs a little over 165 grams or 5.8 ounces.
The previous record -- 7,801 diamonds in a ring -- was also set in India by the Hyderabad-based jeweler Hallmark Jewellers.
Bansal told Guinness that he was first was inspired to break the diamond-studded record in 2018, while studying jewelry design in Surat, India. Two years later, his company completed the ring design on November 30, 2020.

The Collier County Sheriff's Office helped Jaxson Perez celebrate his birthday after social distancing forced his family to cancel the party.
Naples Daily News
The coronavirus pandemic may have put the kibosh on many popular and cherished activities. But one pursuit the dreaded disease has inadvertently given a huge boost in Naples is bicycle riding.
All over town — along Gulf Shore Boulevard, in gated communities and residential neighborhoods, in Old Naples and North Naples — people are riding their bicycles. Old couples. Teenagers. Families. Single riders. Groups of friends. Zooming along or creeping slowly by.
Some streets, in fact, see more bikes these days than cars, particularly on mornings and evenings. (Walking, of course, also has become even more popular than usual during the past few weeks.)

Sherry Burns, of Naples, and two friends were biking in North Naples last week. "We can't play tennis, we can't go to the beach, we can't swim, we can't go to our club," she said. "It's a beautiful day to be out biking in this wonderful weather."
One of Burns' friends, who identified herself only as Maria, said, "Many people have begun biking in our community who haven't biked in years."
More: Southwest Florida cyclists advocate for mending gap in coastal bike route, neighbors fear traffic
Biking, said Peter Marsh, an owner of Naples Cyclery, "is definitely something that has surged in popularity" because of the change in lifestyles dictated by COVID-19. "A silver lining to this horrendous situation is that it's pushing more people outdoors."
Bike shops in town are experiencing a boom in sales, although some say rentals fell off when snowbirds and tourists cancelled their trips to Florida because of the virus.

"It has been extremely busy," reported Greg Pelican, marketing manager for Trek's nine bike shops in South Florida. "We had a week last month that we had double the bike sales we normally do," he said from the Naples store. "We've been doing everything we can to keep up with the demand. Our Naples store has been super busy."
Last week, customers had to wait outside both Naples Cyclery and Trek's Naples store to get in. And it's not just because of the boom in sales and need for service. Both businesses are practicing social distancing by limiting the number of customers who can enter their shops at any one time.
More: Collier transportation planners back 70-mile multi-use trail
Two customers who got inside Naples Cyclery were Deborah Magro and her husband, Roger, from Bonita Springs, who haven't ridden bicycles for four or five years. "We wanted to get out and get exercise," she said, while test-riding a bike. "We're both putting on weight."
While many activities in Naples — working out in a gym, going to the beach, even attending school — have been prohibited, bike riding has been encouraged as a form of exercise that entails social distancing.
In his April 1 "Safer-at-Home" executive order, which discouraged people from leaving their homes, Gov. Ron DeSantis specifically listed biking as a permissible "essential activity" for Floridians. The federal government has issued orders deeming bicycle stores and services to be essential businesses, according to Pelican.

"We're getting people who haven't biked seriously for a long time, or just have done it casually," said Marsh. One recent customer at Naples Cyclery said he hadn't biked in 20 years, according to the shop owner.
Families and young people are riding much more than they typically do in Naples at this time of the year. "The schools are closed and the beaches are closed, and people are looking for things to do," said Pelican.

And because of the coronavirus, some snowbirds have decided to extend their stays in Naples rather than return to more highly infected cities up north. Many of them are buying or renting bikes.
"It's good that people are turning to a healthy physical and mental outlet like cycling at this time," said Pelican. "That's a good aspect of this in a very difficult period."
With so many people taking their bikes to the city's streets, several groups are cautioning riders to be careful — both because of the usual obstacles to safe riding and because of the novel coronavirus pandemic.
More: Florida's safer-at-home order does not prevent snowbirds from leaving, but can they get home?
Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, a nonprofit organization that helps turn old railbeds into biking and hiking trails, has issued an advisory for practicing "safe social distancing on the trail."
It includes such admonishments as "do not gather in groups," "keep six feet between you and others at all times," and "carry water, hand sanitizer and disinfecting wipes to further protect yourself."
While not all cyclists are following these suggestions, they still see biking in the age of coronavirus as a good way to escape the walls of their homes, to get exercise, and to make up for the loss of other pursuits.
