The reason that we created this demo is to show you what other possibilities Essenza has besides the default grid, gallery and blog modules. Essenza really is a premium theme with additional fullscreen grid and gallery options, instead of a grid based theme with some simple page options! Based on all the feedback and suggestions we got during the first two weeks online, we decided to drastically change the 'regular' page admin options, giving full freedom for creativity to the user!
A few highlights about what has changed:
Where V1 only enabled to align a fixed 770 pixels wide page to align left, centered and right, V2 gives you complete control over alignment, width and margins. This enables you to create beautiful pages like this one.
In V2 it is possible to 'snap' content to the sides of a page. An example is the slider here in top, snapping to the left, top and right side of the page. It also allows you to create pages like the stacked slider homepage.
With new pagebuilder options, creating custom pages like this one becomes more attractive. To make it extra easy to create multiple pages with the same layout, in V2 it is possible to save a page layout and load that layout in any other page!
V2 provides you with some cool new shortcodes to play with like 'Image Button' and 'Text Header'. Also, the text editors in the pagebuilder give more freedom on how to use fonts. Last but not least, some improvements to existing shortcodes have been made!
Of course it was already possible to have submenus in V1, but the only option was having a fullwidth submenu bar as in the creative demo. In V2 it is possible to have seperated submenus with lots of styling options to create the exact look you want!
What would an update be without fixing bugs?! We solved various problems like pages not showing in Internet Explorer, homepages having longer permalinks, the website returning to home after refreshing and more. Found something new? Let us know and we'll fix it asap!
