Hola Astroid's fans,

Enable/Disable widgets

Apart from adding rows, columns, nested columns, and inserting widgets into a layout, you're now capable of turning off or turning on the widget element in a blink of an eye. The disabled element will still exist on the backend, but users will not see them on the live site.

You can see the eye icon when hovering on an element, and you should click on it to enable or disable the element.

Widget's Menu Assignment feature

Widget Assignment

Since Astroid version 3.0.12, you can assign a widget to specific pages, which is quite similar to the module's menu assignment of Joomla. By editing a widget in a layout, you can find it in the widget Assignment tab of the element. You can choose between all pages, No pages, or Only on the pages selected. If you choose to display the widget on the page selected, a list of menu items will appear for you to choose one by one.

Assign the widget to specific menu items.

• On all pages: the widget will be visible on all pages of your website
• No pages: the widget will be invisible on all pages
• Only on the pages selected: the widget is only shown on selected menu items

The Button widget provides links to open pages, windows, and section views in your app, scroll to a particular block or the top of the page, or go to a web address. You can choose from different styles, sizes, and colors to design buttons.

Icons Widget

The Icon widget is useful for displaying FontAwesome icons in numerous styles on your page.
