Add feature Load layout from sub-layout-to layout builder (Save Section)
Save a section in a layout
After you’ve created a row and put everything you need inside, you can then save the entire row and save it for later use. Then before saving you can name a custom section as you need. Later, when you create a new section, you can reuse the saved section without having to create it from scratch.
Select a sublayout from library
Add Image Effect To Article Widget
Article widget - Image effect
In this update, the Article widget has been added with the Image effect option, which allows you to enable the effect on article images.
Add Color Transform Feature in Color Mode
Color mode is one of the interesting features offered by Astroid Framework that allows you to switch between the light and dark modes with just a single click. In this version, you can see the color transform feature added, and by enabling the color transform option, you can choose the color transform mode from dark to light or light to dark, and set the transform offset that triggers the color to switch vertically.
Enable color transform mode.
Add local video to Video article type
Enable color transform mode.
When it comes to Video articles, it's recommended to use one of the more popular video hosting services like YouTube and Vimeo. But in some cases, using self-host video is a good option.
Since version 3.1.2, when you create a new article with Video type, you can select self-hosted videos. You should go to Media, and upload local videos there, and then select one in each article.
Besides new features, this version is included with many other enhancements and updates. So why not start updating the framework today to enjoy all the goodies? And don't forget to give us feedback. You can update the component using the single-click updater in Joomla or download the latest package on Github, then install it manually. If you have any problem with the update, don't hesitate to contact us or post your issues HERE.
