Beta test the latest version of the Beaver Builder theme!

BB Theme

I’ve been using this new theme and am really liking it. I need to know one thing right now, though.

Is there a way yet to be able to use my own custom footer area design?

Before I use the method that was posted here in the forums using the “insert pages” plugin and global row. I just wanted to verify that.

Thanks! And great job!

Hello!

I think i’ve found a bug related to 1.5-beta.2.

When I go to save a row, it works. But then when I save the page, close, and reopen the page builder it seems to stop working! http://screencast.com/t/I4ybOhOMeRQ

Otherwise, super impressed so far, very excited to start using it in production! So much so, i’m using it for this site :wink:

I tested with the 2016 theme and the issue goes away. I’m also using the child theme, but I don’t think i’ve made any adjustments to it since setting it up.

edit: oh also, no relevant console errors or anything!

I tried running it without the child theme and it fixed the issue… so maybe its plugin related. Should I post over in that forum?

@jmrandall you can now use the official Beaver Builder shortcode to handle that. Let me know if you have any questions about that.

@nwm-dev that does sound plugin related. If you open a new thread we can have a look for you there.

Thanks for testing!

The reason I’m asking is because there was talk on an older that about it being built into the new theme but, I’ll start another thread.

Thank you

Hey Mark,

My response to Nic was about starting a new thread. The Beaver Builder shortcode has been available in the plugin since 1.7. Have a look at the docs for that and let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for clarifying that. I’m wanting the footer to be across the entire site not just on a single page.

Hi Mark,

If you want a site-wide footer, you’ll need to override footer.php in a child theme and then place the shortcode in there where you would like it to appear like so…

echo do_shortcode( 'fl_builder_insert_layout slug="my-post-slug"' );

Let me know if you have any questions about that.
