Since the Themify v7.5 release, we've added the capability to drop modules inside accordion and tab content. Many users really enjoy this feature as it offers more flexibility in designing content for accordions and tabs. With the ability to drop any module, apply styling, and select grids, you can design any layout for accordions and tabs. The only downside was that accordion/tab content needed to be edited in frontend mode, which caused some inconvenience for users who strictly use backend mode to edit their content.
If you prefer to use backend editing, we have good news for you. With the latest update, you can now edit accordion and tab content in backend mode. Achieving this goal was very challenging because users could have many modules and multi-level nesting modules (e.g., accordions within accordions or tabs within accordions). There were code and UI/UX concerns we needed to tackle. We are very proud to present this new feature to you.
We are excited to announce the official release of v7.5. It is a major update that we've been working hard on for a while. It took longer than expected, but it is definitely worth the wait. We had to restructure the Builder data in order to achieve the nesting feature. While we were at it, we've added many new features such as nesting modules in accordions/tabs, unlimited subrows, repeatable item inline editing/deleting, backend mode, and a new Toggle addon. To access all these new features, upgrade your Themify themes or Builder plugin to the latest version. You would also need to update all Builder Addons, Builder Pro, and associated plugins (Portfolio and Event Post plugin) if you use them on your site.
When Themify breaks out of silence, you know something big is about to be released. Over the past few months, we've been quietly working on another major update. Today, we are thrilled to announce the Beta version of v7.5. This new version features significant improvements in backend Builder data handling and performance. On the frontend, you can now nest modules inside Accordions and Tabs. Additionally, you can nest unlimited subrows, which were previously limited to one subrow. Last but not least, we've added the backend mode on the frontend Builder. Try the Beta version (free) to explore these new features, and let us know what you think.
Hello, mega menu lovers. We are thrilled to bring you some exciting news. The beloved mega menu, previously limited to selective themes like Ultra and Shoppe, has now been seamlessly integrated with our Builder. The new mega menu feature has been designed for effortless usability and functionality. It uses the core WordPress menu admin to configure the mega menu, eliminating the need to start from scratch. Furthermore, this integration ensures backward compatibility—should you choose to disable the mega menu in the future, your existing menus remain intact.
Our mega menu isn't just versatile; it's also impeccably responsive on both desktop and mobile devices. This means that regardless of how your audience views your website, the mega menu will adapt seamlessly to provide a consistent, user-friendly experience.
For those managing extensive websites with an abundance of pages and links, the mega menu proves to be a handy tool. It allows you to showcase multi-column dropdowns that can feature links, textual content, or even widgets. Imagine presenting featured posts, WooCommerce products, and more, all neatly organized within the mega menu's expansive layout. Now that the mega menu has been incorporated into the Builder, you can use Builder Pro to start creating header templates with mega menus.
