Style Name Field, Off canvas on mobile, irritated basic styles

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

Hello,
Please excuse me to ask you several things once, but these have been always problems since the installation of Buildr.

I am using Buildr as a multi language site (German, English, Japanese).
I installed quickstart files months ago and it works fine as long as I don't touch the template styles.

1) It was not possible to choose a new style and give a new style name.
I don't see a field "style name" which I see on other templates.
Is it normal?

2) So, I tried to give a new name under the General Setting/Style, but the name was not saved.
Is it normal?

3) That's why I duplicated the style for each language.
Then irritated issues.
Changing parameters at first time was OK, but after that when I change something several parameters will be reset to initial setting. For example, background image on footer will be always reset to "repeat y" every time by clicking "save".
Is it normal?

4) Another issue
Off canvas is not displayed on German pages even if the setting is identical as Japanese. Do you have any idea what the reason is?

I hope you can help me.
Thank you and best regards,

Hi Ichiro,

If you make any setting change with it save that setting?

Am I right that is isn't saving consistently?

Hello Paul,

Thank you for a prompt reply.

PHP: 5.6.12
memory_limit = 512M

I don't understand exactly what "save consistently" means, but the issue is
- some settings were reset to default (?) setting whenever I make a slight change and click the save button.

I realized now when I open the page "Templates: Edit Style" at least these two settings below were already again reset.
- "Menu/Navbar Link Active Background" is back to "3d9994" (I changed another colour)
- "Footer/Row style/Background Image repeat" is back to "Repeat y" (I chose "no repeat")

It means even if when I want to make only one change I must always change the above two as well.
Once saved, the setting change will be reflected however when I reopen, at least the above two were reset again "3d9994" and "Repeat y".
And these changes are affected for two other language templates as well.
It means I cannot make small changes individually for each language template style.
That's why I wonder it might be wrong that I duplicated "Buildr responsive" for 3 language templates.
However I had no choice, because
there is no field to give new style names
it was not possible to save a template with new name

I hope you understand better now about my situation

Best regards,

Hello Paul,

No, my template was "Buildr 1.0.0"
I installed the newest one and finally these issues were solved.
Thank you very much.
Oh, I never thought that could be the cause of the issues.

One small thing.
"Bar with a button" (Off canvas menu) on the mobile display was changed
from

mobile_menu_2_2016-09-19.png


to

mobile_menu_3.png


Is it possible to show the standard bar with a button on the mobile as on the old version?
If yes, would you tell me how to do?
Thank you and
best regards,

Hello Paul,

Yes I did.

General Settings > Layout > Collapse Menu > Mobile menu type > toggle

Menu > Toggle Menu > Toggle trigger style > Btn

I left blank on "Togglemenu trigger text" and "Togglemenu close text" because the text was not fit correctly on the button.

Is it wrong or is there some other parameters that I should set?

Hi Ichiro,

I think there is an issue with the toggle I'll talk to the developers

Are you able to switch to the off canvas is the mean time?

sorry for the delay on this

Hi Paul,

Yes, I can and now changed it to the off canvas.
As I mentioned the issue of the toggle is a display.
The functionality is fine.
I will be waiting for the good answer.
Thank you.
