Standard Module Options

Click the wrench icon in the corner of a module to open the Options settings.

 

The standard Options for the modules on the Home page are:

Settings

The settings that are specific to the module you're working with are usually listed here (like that zip code for the Weather module).

 

  • Title: Enter a custom title. Keep in mind that Titles must be unique!
  • Title Style:
    • main displays a large title with the chosen font choices
    • basic displays a small title with a plain font
    • none no title displays
  • Show on: by default, all modules display on both desktop computers & mobile devices. Control if a module displays on Desktop Only, Mobile Only, or set to Hide.
Style
  • Background Color, Text Color, & Link Color: override the color settings that were applied on the Styles page for just this module
  • Text Size: control the size of the text in just this module
  • Module XoomFX: select an animation style for this module
  • Apply XoomFX: drop down to select a specific element to apply the animation to.
Row Image Options
  • Set Row Height based on device: This allows you to set the height for phones, tablets, and computers. You can set one and auto-set the others. 
  • Disable Hero Header Detection: This overrides the row height for large "hero" image. To use this setting you must apply a picture album for the row and ensure there are no modules.
  • Photo Position: You can adjust the position of your photos to match your image.
    TIP: One technique is to keep your main image to the left, so on smaller devices it remains left and only crops "filler" part of the image on the right. 
Delete

Click the delete settings & content button to permanently delete the module AND it's contents.

 

If you use this function, you may want to add a different module in the now empty grid area.  Click the purple view button to check the layout of your Home page.

 

(You can also drag modules to the MODULES holding area found on the left under Website > Home Page > X-Grid to deactivate the module & retain the settings & content for future use.)

Some modules may have have additional Options available.  Be sure to click save to make your changes live!
