    Questions & Answers

    Can Matrix Themes be installed on Jimdo Dolphin website?

    Matrix Themes can be used only with Jimdo Creator. If you use Jimdo Dolphin, you can contact the official Jimdo support asking to change the account for Jimdo Creator.

     

    Can I use Matrix theme without knowledge of coding?

    Yes, each step, widget or any custom feature in Matrix Themes is well documented with examples and shortcodes. However, it is possible to get installed Matrix theme and use it as default Jimdo template. Check this page with Matrix Themes widgets that don't require using Widget/HTML module. 

     

    Websites with too many pages and Matrix themes

    If your website has many pages, it doesn't mean you can't use Matrix Theme, but you need to change your navigation structure in order to have a slim menu ( at least the first level ). A custom layout gives you a possibility to customize many elements of your website, from blog posts to online store items. So that's why having 300 different products in your store wouldn't be convenient to make changes in every single page and in this case it's better to use a standard Jimdo template. Obviously here we talk about the existing content and not the new websites.

     

    Am I capable?


    Everyone can use Matrix Themes without any knowledge of coding.
    Check some beautiful examples of Jimdo websites built with Matrix themes

    Can I switch from one type of the template( e.g. Multi Purpose) to Multilingual?

    It's not possible to change the type of the template as each theme has it's own navigation structure

     

    How does megamenu work?

    If you add one sub-level to your main navigation, it will be displayed as standard dropdown menu. When you add another sub-level (3rd level) it will be displayed as megamenu with 4 columns

      @Herbert unfortunately, Matrix Theme don't provide any SEO tools but just some general tips and suggestions in documentation;
      -There's a js plugin 'Lazy' that can be used for any element of Jimdo site;
      - In Admin menu > SEO> settings. This section is the same in custom layout too;
      - web.js is necessary file for running Jimdo site and can't be removed or modified.

      Hi!
      Some information I have not found. Can you answer me?

      *How do the themes behave in conjunction with PageSpeed?
      *Are there LazyLoad possibilities?
      *How does the theme change behave in relation to SEO?
      *Will Slow Java Script (example: /web.js.85d2f03....js - assets.jimstatic.com) be faster or removed with your theme?
      Thanks!

      @Andre you can start editing your site with Matrix theme and upgrade your Jimdo plan later but keep in mind that some features ( body classes) available only in Jimdo Pro or Business account. For the second question the answer is yes.

    • #24

      Andre (Saturday, 19 September 2020 16:57)

      ...So, my main question is, can I buy one of your templates and editing it from scratch as a free Jimdo website?

    • #23

      Andre (Saturday, 19 September 2020 13:15)

      Hi!
      I want to buy one of your templates and start from scratch a free Jimdo website using it, and then when it's finished I'll buy a Jimdo plan and turn it live. How should I proceed?

      @ingrid using a test website is a good option to test Matrix themes before the installation on your official website. You can find a detailed tutorial about how to transfer a custom layout from one website to another: https://www.matrix-themes.com/support/help/theme-transfer/

      Matrix themes (Tuesday, 26 May 2020 08:23)

      @Miri you didn't add the url of your website. The template is installed as 'custom layout'. You can try Zodiac framework which is based on Matrix themes widgets:

      Miri (Monday, 25 May 2020 23:03)

      Hi!
      After the purchase, what do I get? Is it the template as an alternative to my actual template (Jimdo), shown within the menue, - and I am the one, who decides, when I am ready to switch to it?
      When do I have to save any "codes" and such?
      Is it as easy to switch to this template as it is told?
      Thanks

      HI
      I'm not yet life with my Jimdo Site. Customization with Jimdo is finished now and I'm ready to go but would like to upgrade before I go online since I don't want to be life with a half finished Site - after the upgrade to Lemberg. My understanding is, once you are life than everyone has access, no option for a testing environment except the maintenance mode in Jimdo which is not sufficient.

      Is it possible to upgrade to Lemberg anyway? My Jimdo Package is PRO.

      Thanks
      Matthias

      Hi,
      what an amazing service. Great themes !
      I am a little bit confused. I have just ordered a new jimdo business website. Everthing ok as long. In the next step, i would like to buy one of your themes for my new website. But I do not know which is the right choice for me.
      I do not understand the diferrence between for instance "Horten Explosion" and "Horten Ultimate".
      What is the difference between a theme of an enterprise package (like Horton Ultimate) and a theme you describe in your section "Popular Design"
      Horten Explosion in an enterprise package seems to be ok for me. But what is the Add-On, when i would take "Horton Ultimate" ? Sorry for my confusion.

      Regards, Marcus

      @Martin the Gotland theme is very similar to Jaunt design which has full width sections, image widgets with captions etc.

    • #13

      Martin (Thursday, 10 October 2019 09:33)

      Hi,
      great themes!
      I am about to decide between Squarespace and Jimdo to realize a new web shop. In terms of design I would defenitely prefer Squarespace, however in terms of adressing special requirements of German law I would prefer Jimdo. Now my question:
      Is it possible to realize a "Jaunt-like" design (https://www.squarespace.com/templates/jaunt) based on a matrix theme (full width, gallery-styled pictures with captions that function as hyperlinks, mouse-over effect for those pics etc.). Which one would you recommend? Gotland?
      Appreciate your feedback!
      Thanks and regards!

      and how much?

      Serhiy (Thursday, 11 January 2018 14:36)

      @Clemens the default version has standard dropdown menu, while the explosion version has megamenu. That's only one difference.How does megamenu works: you edit it as a usual Jimdo navigation. The enterprise packages such as Yoga, Coaching etc can be used for any other business and different kind of websites.

      Clemens (Thursday, 11 January 2018 14:28)

      Hi!

      And when I want to purchase i can alos choose from "Yoga", "Coaching" and others. Is this meant for this specific businesses?
