LAYOUT-BUILDER

The Layout-Builder is a robust page builder with a simple drag and drop interface, it lets you create different page layouts. It comprises of web elements like newsletters, tabs, background images/videos, sliders, forms, maps, media elements, social icons, grid layouts, columns and a lot more.

GOMANOS websites are built on a framework which is a very easy to use as a powerful editor. We do get questions if users can buy the Layout-Builder as a separate plugin to use it on other wbsites. The answer is at the moment we do not sell it as a separate plugin but it comes bundled with a GOMANOS website.

Build a website

Drag and drop web elements can be accessed by clicking on the “Layout-Builder” button on any page or post. Web elements are sorted into 3 main categories:

Layout elements
Content Elements
Media Elements

Things to note:

Color Sections, LayerSliders, and Masonry elements will always be full width and it will push the sidebar to the bottom.
Full-width elements like Color Sections, LayerSliders, and Masonry elements cannot be placed inside column elements.
The default visual editor and the Layout Builder use two different sets of data so you aren’t able to switch back and forth between them.

Layout Elements

Layout Elements section consist of Columns, Color Section, Grid Row and Tab Section. Layout elements can be used to define the base layout of your web page. In the Layout Elements section, we will take a detailed look and create different page layouts.

Content Elements

Elements that make up the content of your website such as Text Block, Headings, Buttons, Portfolio and many more can be accessed from the Content Elements tab. Most of the content elements can be placed inside the Layout Elements to position them on a webpage to suit your design.

Images, Sliders, Videos and other media elements can be accessed from the Media Elements tab. Using media elements on a website can create a visually rich and interactive experience.
