Hi,
I plan to use your page builder occasionally for web pages sections and not to build a whole site, so the best solution in my case is to integrate custom type modules built with your page builder directly in T4 framework... or go directly to building a page with your component, but I prefer to keep this solution as a last resort to stay as much as possible with core Joomla elements (articles or modules)

I'm quite perplexed by the code generated when I use "Add-ons" type items, with each element added an ID is added (even for a simple paragraph), is it really necessary?
I don't think this behavior is the same with "Blocks" type items, it seems that less IDs are generated...

Here is what I also noticed and which in my opinion could be improved or fixed.

It would be nice to:

  1. avoid generating new IDs for each added item, this will allow to have a cleaner code

  2. have the option to leave font-size and line-height property on inherit (as is possible for font-family property)
    Since I use rem value for font-size and line-height property in T4 framework, it's annoying to have to set this value again in the page builder. Or did I miss something?
    Please make rem value possible also for margin and padding.

  3. have the code editor also for smaller blocks, at least for columns and not only for sections

  4. have more specs for flex positioning, you give flex positioning, but where are all the other properties?

Bug?
When I create a custom module or a core joomla article with the page builder, sometimes the button for saving or closing the layout remains frozen (but the save is still done).
Another annoying behavior: saving from custom module or core joomla article makes me go back to Joomla interface instead of staying on page builder interface.

Question
Why if I create an article directly with your page builder the settings tabs like "Images and Links", "Options", Publishing", ... are not available?

Many thanks,
Lorenzo

Hi Lorenzo,

Thanks for your feedback and suggestion, we appreciate it and will forward to T4 Builder team for further consideration.

With your questions, I guess it happens on your site specific as the save button in article /custom module editing should work fine, you can share the login info of your site and tell me the article / module so I can replicate this issue and check directly for you.

Regards

Hi
Will I have the chance to see these improvements in one of the next versions? Especially for points 2, 3 and 4...

Thanks,

Hi Lorenzo,

I've shared with team again, I will update here when having news.

Hi,
I like your Page Builder a lot, but there are some gaps that irritate me, I don't think you are listening about improvements that your customers would like to see in your component...

Concerning point 2, I don't understand why it is still not possible to make framework values inheritable in your page builder? Why? Or did I missed something...?
All typographic values (font-size, font-weight, line-weight, color, ...) have to be entered again into the page builder to match framework values, this is nonsense and a waste of time.

Also, why suggest display:flex property if you don't include the others flex display properties (flex-direction, justify-content, flex-wrap, …)

... and lastly, one of the major gaps in your Joomlart products (PageBuilder and T4 framework), is the inability to set different font sizes for mobile devices (Responsive Typography Settings) as it is already available in Astroid framework for some time now 👎

Hi Lorenzo

I've shared with T4 team but still no news on this yet, I will check with them again.

Appreciate your input on this!

... it's a pity that T4 team is not reactive to customer requests, after several months nothing has changed except adding rem units for margins and paddings...

    iorbita We've been working hard on migration task and our enterprise extensions, now we're working on it. I will keep you posted.

      I renewed my subscription to T4 PageBuilder but honestly I was reluctant, I hope there will be more consistent and useful updates otherwise I'm afraid next year I'll have to switch to another page builder, sorry for that ...

        Hi,
        I add some other considerations. It woul be useful:
        a) while modifying a page, to show the name of the page you're editing. It think it is a simple implementation
        b) to have the chance to duplicate an entire page so as not to be forced to save multiple sections to have the same layout on multiple pages of the site
        c) inherit font settings in the pages. It's so boring to set them everytime in every page
        d) exporting entire template and/or its settings to have the chance to import it/them in another site

          a month later

          another input:
          please provide the possibility to add a link to images, font-icons etc. by using settings of the single item (as already possibile for links items).

          iorbita I'm in the same way, so many bugs. T4 builder sounds like a good idea but ......

              jupagose it’s obvious that Joomlart team is not listening its customers which means no update for a long time, no fix for the LOOOOOOONG list of bugs (just read my long list of unanswered posts, I would like to know what Joomlart developers are doing...) and an incalculable waste of time.
              This page builder is a real nightmare, I used it just to create a simple one page layout and it took me a lot of time, every time I have to modify an element I'm afraid to get stuck for some problem, in short, used only once and I will never use it again, very bad component 👎🏻 the worst I've used since I'm on Joomla, it's certainly NOT a professional tool, by the way it's unusable even to play with...
