FAQ
Installation Instructions
Get started by simply:
- Upload the plugin files to the
/wp-content/plugins/plugin-name
directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress Admin
- Within WordPress Admin, visit ‘Settings’ > ‘Page Builder’ > ‘WPD Settings’ to configure basic settings
How do I match the heights of modules?
In 2.0.3, you can match the heights of modules (useful if you have uneven blocks of text with call to actions below) by:
1) Opening each module’s settings
2) Heading to the ‘advanced’ tab
3) Adding the same name to “Match height group”
How do I white-label WPD BB Additions?
You are able to change the values of:
- Plugin Name
- Plugin Description
- Plugin Author
- Plugin Author Website
You can do this by adding something similar to your functions.php file in your theme:
add_filter( 'wpd/bb-additions/config', function( $config ) {
$config->plugin_menu_name = 'My Plugin';
$config->plugin_description = 'My Plugin Description';
$config->plugin_author = 'My Name';
$config->plugin_author_uri = 'My Website';
return $config;
}, 10, 1 );
How do I set a custom thumbnail for optimised videos
In version 1.9+ you have the option to choose ‘custom thumbnail’ within the settings of an Optimised Video module. You’ll then be able to upload a thumbnail using a photo field.
How do I set my own aspect ratio for an embedded optimised video?
In version 1.5+, you can simply add or edit a WPD Optimised Video and then choose ‘Custom’ under ‘Aspect Ratio’. You will then see 2 fields for width and height. If you have a 4:3 aspect ratio, use ‘4’ in width and ‘3’ in height. The default is 16:9.
How do I add a WPD animation into a Beaver Builder module?
New animations are simply added to a module in exactly the same was as usual. In the Beaver Builder editor, edit a module, head to the Advanced tab, and then choose an animation from the animation dropdown field.
How do I enable the ‘fade on scroll’ effects on a row?
Simply edit your row, and check the ‘WPD’ tab for this setting.
How do I enable the ‘polaroid photo’ effect on a photo module?
Simply add/edit a photo module, and check the ‘WPD’ tab for this setting.
How do I override the CSS for the polaroid photo effect?
You can either:
- Add a file in your theme: theme-name/wpd-bb-additions/enhancements/polaroid-photo/css/style.css and it’ll automatically overwrite.
- Using the wpd_bb_enhancements_polaroid_photo_css_file filter to specify your own path
