CRAFTING THE WORLD ONE SITE AT A TIME

© 2015 BRANDON LEE THEME DESIGN

Extra Content Based

Euphonic is a simple and easy to use theme to create fullscreen scrolling websites (also known as single page websites) with up to 11 different slide areas. It allows the creation of fullscreen scrolling websites by utilizing Extra Content areas within a single page giving your guests a unique and enhanced experience when engaging with your content.

Welcome to the Sample Snippet Project

Get started with Euphonic’s included RW 6 Sample Snippet Project so you can follow along in real time with some of the theme’s features already implemented. This great value will give you the ability to compare your inputted snippets in your projects and allow you to quickly copy and paste for future reference.

Tutorials How To’s

Here are some tutorials to help you make the most of your Euphonic project. Follow along below and explore the page inspector to see where some of the snippets have been applied.

Creating Content Areas/Slides

1. Select the number of content areas/slides (Figure 1)

* The following example shows a project containing 5 content/slide areas. You should see 5 navigation buttons displayed on the right side of your project.

2. Drag and drop your Extra Content Stack into edit mode.

3. Designate the area by number in the Extra Content Stack (Figure 2)

* The following example shows how an Extra Content Stack is designated to area 2. As a result the content will display in the second slide.

4. Enjoy the content creation process and see how your content matches the slides you associate your stacks with.

Responsive Slideshow

* Images used in the slideshow are 1400px by 500px. Slideshow can only be applied to the first content area/slide as seen in the Preview Site.

1. Before dragging your image to the RW Resources area, you may rename the image after one of the following to assist in keeping your project organized:

* Remember that the rendering of your image is very precise, so naming your image with a lowercase ".jpg" is paramount.

2. Open your page inspector and locate the Banner Area option.

3. Simply select the Built-in Slideshow - Slider option for a sliding effect, or the Built-in Slideshow Fade option for a fading effect.

4. Locate the Sidebar area and paste the following HTML so that the images display in the Extra Content 1/Banner area:

<div id="myExtraContent1">

<ul class="bxslider">

<li><img src="%resource(slide_1.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_2.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_3.jpg)%" /></li>

</ul>

</div>



If you would like to add more than three images (or less), simply add another list item following the pattern seen above etc. The following example showcases how 8 images may be displayed within one on your project page's slideshows:

<div id="myExtraContent1">

<ul class="bxslider">

<li><img src="%resource(slide_1.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_2.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_3.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_4.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_5.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_6.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_7.jpg)%" /></li>

<li><img src="%resource(slide_8.jpg)%" /></li>

</ul>

</div>



5. IMPORTANT: Highlight the following HTML snippet in your sidebar and click the Ignore Formatting option found in the Format area of the RapidWeaver software. The code will turn light pink when performed correctly.

Social Icons

1. Open your page inspector and click on the Sidebar option.

2. Copy and paste the following code into your page's sidebar:

<a href="#" class="zocial icon googleplus flat"></a>
<a href="#" class="zocial icon twitter flat"></a>
<a href="#" class="zocial icon soundcloud flat"></a>

<a href="#" class="zocial icon linkedin flat"></a>
</div>
</div>
</div><!-- #myExtraContent -->

<a href="http://twitter.com/bltthemes" class="zocial icon twitter flat"></a>

4. Highlight your inputted code and click on Format and continue to enable the option "Ignore Formatting."
