In this tutorial, I rebuild a site (well, a page of it) that a customer sent to us.
If you’re new to Elements, or haven’t yet got the hang of building things from scratch, then this is probably a must-watch video!
Open the finished Project in Elements — Please remember, this project is not “finished”; it’s just what we did in the video. If you want to use this, you may want to tidy up the styles and make sure everything looks good on all device sizes.
If you have any questions, please ask, and I’ll do my best to help
This is a great project, the day earlier I started this on a completely different site to play with my new found learning skills that you keep giving. Is there any way I can have a landscape picture on larger screens but changes to Portrait pic on smaller phones. Also text above larger and text below on smaller? My landscape product pics too large for portrait view so want to turn it around? TIA
Brilliant on text and pic moving but I want image to rotate as too long on portrait and it goes a lot smaller so what it to rotate 90% on switching from landscape to portrait. TIA
Changing the global SVGs didn’t work for me. I followed along to the instructions by selecting each SVG icon and breaking the link so that I could put a new icon in from resources but the brain icon doesn’t want to leave.
I even used the clear button to before dropping another image in but when I did that the brain icon just came back.
I love that command D now lets you duplicate page elements instead of entire pages ! ! !
I started this tutorial late and when I did 0.6.3 came out with that feature NICE!
I have always wondered why Classic would dedicate that shortcut for making an entire new page. Could you also apply the duplicate to globals? When the new version came out I was just in the part of the tutorial where we started using globals and noticed it wouldn’t apply to those page elements. It seems like duplicating globals would be a very common procedure.
As I have continued with the tutorial I noticed that duplicating elements doesn’t work 100% of the time. When trying to duplicate the cards neither command D or edit > duplicate worked. Going to “page layout” and bringing up the menu to select duplicate will work. When I restarted elements it appears that everything is working again.
Also “duplicate without content” is interesting! I can see that coming in handy a lot most likely.
It had been and I did it a bunch of times to make sure I was doing it right. Restarting the program seemed to be all that worked when it came to making the shortcut and editor menu work right. I’m guessing it will continue to work now? I’m not sure what was going on there but we will have to see how it works with others.
