How to choose the right template

The first step is to pick out the right template of Matrix themes. Let's see the main difference between them:

Multipurpose or default: template with standard dropdown menu.
Multilingual: template for multilingual websites with standard Jimdo navigation, -no dropdown. In this kind of template, the first level of menu will be used only for language select, the second one- for the main navigation and the third level for submenu;
Explosion or ecommerce: template with megamenu. If the first level of navigation has only one submenu,- it will display the standard dropdown menu. In case your second level has submenu, it will be displayed with mega dropdown navigation;

Regarding the design options, the templates has been divided on the following features:

Fullwidth layout: the content width has 100% width so it's perfect for custom elements such as parallax, fullwidth sections etc;

Boxed layout: the templates with boxed layout, limited width for the main content and footer.

Layout structure

Each of Matrix Themes has the same template structure:

hs-top-header - available in all themes though in some of the templates this part is hidden. The content of this section ( contact information) can be edited directly in HTML ( custom layout> HTML )
hs-header - header of your website. The background color of this section can be edited in CSS or through HTML with helper classes
hs-content - content of your website
hs-footer - footer of your website
footer-btm - bottom footer of your website

additional sections

Some of the Matrix themes have additional template sections:

Matrix-hero - fullwidth/fullscreen image based on Jimdo Awesome backgrounds. In can be edited in Menu>Design>Background. Here you can use single image, slideshow, video or simple color background.
Magic field/button - usually placed in header. Any custom widget with helper class 'hs-magic' added to content or footer will be displayed on the top of your website.

Hi Serhiy,
1- How do I change the background colour of the footer?
I tried to change .hs-footer, .footer-btm and .footer-top in CSS, but without any respons.
2- Is it possible to change the colours of the buttons in two variations? I would like to try transparant filling + text and outline in black or white (depending on the background). Is that possible?

Hi Sherhiy, it is in templates like https://lemberg-template3.jimdo.com/#scroll and probably a lot of other templates with a one page option. I see now that these are specific variations of certain templates. Too bad, since my customer likes this very much (it was also used in his former website).
Is there a work-around possible to realise this in the Alsten template?

Serhiy (Thursday, 31 October 2019 13:04)

@Richard I think it's been misunderstanding.
I have no tutorial about anchor links to a specific section of the page. Can you show me please a matrix themes you saw it?
There are templates with one page layout and anchor links in navigation. Those templates have a specific layout structure and features which are not available in other templates ( multilingual, multi purpose and templates with megamenu )

Hi Serhiy, I am using the Alsten template, but when I am looking on the Matrix website, I see 11 templates, but none of them is called "One Page". Can I also use one page technology in Alsten? How do I proceed?
#16
Serhiy (Thursday, 31 October 2019 12:44)

@Richard this section and feature is only available in one page layout ( matrix themes menu> one page)
#15
Richard (Thursday, 31 October 2019 12:40)

Hi Serhiy, I like to know more about these one page layout. Where to find that?
#14
Serhiy (Thursday, 31 October 2019 12:32)

@Richard In custom widgets ( module Widget/HTML ) you need to add manually the url of the linked page, while using text, jimdo CTA etc, you can add a link with default Jimdo tools ( see the screenshot https://u.jimcdn.com/cms/o/s1aeecbbb2a5865b1/userlayout/img/adding-links.png?t=1572521319 )
I don't have tutorial for linking a specific section of the page. This options is available in one page layout.

Richard (Thursday, 31 October 2019 12:18)

I am looking for instructions how to navigate to a certain shortcut on a page. For instance from a CTA or Read More button or teaser. I miss the original Jimdo method to a link to another page, but I also need an a:link to go to a specific place on the same page. Can you help me out?
#12
Richard (Monday, 28 October 2019 10:32)

I missed that one indeed (there is so much to read and to find out), but it works! Thanks.

Serhiy (Monday, 28 October 2019 10:26)

Richard, you haven’t read the instructions ( shortcodes> shortcodes ) about how to upload your own image and change it in custom widgets

Richard (Monday, 28 October 2019 10:22)

Hi Serhiy,
But how can I change the picture? The image source is now: "https://u.jimcdn.com/cms/o/s572cf8a914c2631f/userlayout/img/matrix-teaser.jpg"
But where is file this located and how do I put my own pictures in place?

Serhiy (Monday, 28 October 2019 10:00)

@Richard there's no further instruction for the widget "overlay teaser"
#8
Richard (Monday, 28 October 2019 09:52)

Where can I find more instructions about the Matrix Widget overlay teaser?
I like to customise them.

Hi how can you remove the NEVER LØØK BÆCK text from the overlay header part of the template?
I have uploaded my own picture, still the writing has remained.

thank you

Serhiy (Friday, 13 July 2018 16:11)

@Marcel all you have to do is to change the image url inside of the widget code. From your page I can see that one parallax widget is correct while for the second image you used the wrong widget - fullwidth image.
