## Description

**SoftIcon Ready-Made Template** adds one block, **Ready-Made Template**, with a
library of finished page sections sorted by category. Insert the block, pick a template,
then click any text on the block to change it. Media, links and colors are in the
sidebar.

Most template libraries are built from plain blocks, so a video popup, a background
video or a podcast player needs another plugin. Here they are part of the template.

Video tutorials: [add your first section](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H770mo2pJfM&list=PLAkrswTRlP6g),
[edit a template](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGK9RoziPVI&list=PLAkrswTRlP6g),
[video and audio](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wM-76BcG2B4&list=PLAkrswTRlP6g)
and [smart sections](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdbhpFR6Z7g&list=PLAkrswTRlP6g).
Or watch the [30-second trailer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-Z-ZWv4rgM&list=PLAkrswTRlP6g)
and the [whole playlist](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAkrswTRlP6g).

#### Why choose SoftIcon Ready-Made Template?

 * **One block, many templates** – every template is the same block, so you learn
   it once.
 * **Video and audio built in** – background video, video popups, play buttons, 
   video and voice testimonials, podcast and music playlists.
 * **Live previews** – the library shows each template as it really looks, not a
   screenshot.
 * **Edit in place** – headings, text, quotes and button labels are edited right
   on the block.
 * **Light on your pages** – background videos load only when they scroll into view,
   YouTube uses the privacy-enhanced domain, and nothing loads for a template without
   media.

#### 77 templates in 12 categories

 * **Hero** (11) – product video popup, full-screen background video, podcast player,
   restaurant, real estate, online course, event, fitness, app download, AI product
 * **Features & Services** (6) – icon cards, four-column benefits, zigzag product
   tour with video, agency services, local business, app highlights
 * **Call to Action** (8) – gradient banner, box, sale and event countdowns, side-
   by-side bar, background video, app download, course enrollment
 * **Pricing** (7) – monthly / yearly switch, free and Pro, agency packages, single
   course offer, gym memberships, hourly services
 * **Stats & Numbers** (6) – counters that count up as they scroll into view
 * **Logos & Clients** (5) – logo row, moving logo row, partner grid, “as featured
   in”
 * **FAQ** (6) – accordion, heading beside questions, grid, video answers, audio
   answers; FAQ structured data for search results
 * **Contact** (5) – details on a card beside the heading, with map, project brief,
   centered, clinic appointment; email, call, WhatsApp and directions buttons
 * **Testimonials** (5) – review cards, video testimonials, voice reviews, a large
   single quote, minimal
 * **Team** (6) – photo cards, round photos, names over photos, video introductions,
   doctors, founders
 * **Gallery & Portfolio** (6) – masonry with filter, grid, carousel, video reels,
   restaurant, photographer
 * **Podcast & Music** (6) – episode playlist, album, audio message, meditation,
   audiobook, sermons

#### Media and interaction

 * Video: YouTube, Vimeo or a video file (.mp4, .webm), in a popup or in place
 * Background video: a muted loop from a file, YouTube or Vimeo, with a poster image.
   Visitors who ask their device for reduced motion see the poster only
 * Audio: a player with progress bar and playlist. Only one player sounds at a time
 * Gallery lightbox for images and videos, with arrow keys, filter buttons and a
   carousel
 * Countdown timer, monthly / yearly price switch, counting numbers, moving logo
   row
 * Contact details with email and phone links, buttons for email, calls, WhatsApp
   or directions, and a Google Map

#### Style

 * Light or dark base colors, plus text, accent and card colors
 * Background color, gradient, image or video, with an overlay
 * Layout options for every section: alignment, media position, columns, style variations
 * Width, height, spacing and corner radius
 * Wide and full width alignment

### External services

The plugin can show content from three outside services. Nothing is loaded from 
them unless you add a YouTube or Vimeo link or a map address to a block, and the
plugin sends no data anywhere when it is only installed.

**YouTube** (Google) plays YouTube videos you link in a block.

 * What is sent and when: when a visitor presses play on a YouTube video, or a section
   with a YouTube background video scrolls into view, the visitor’s browser loads
   the video from youtube-nocookie.com. YouTube receives the video ID, the visitor’s
   IP address and the usual browser information.
 * Terms of service: https://www.youtube.com/t/terms
 * Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

**Vimeo** plays Vimeo videos you link in a block.

 * What is sent and when: as for YouTube, the video loads from player.vimeo.com 
   when the visitor presses play or a background video scrolls into view. Vimeo 
   receives the video ID, the visitor’s IP address and browser information.
 * Terms of service: https://vimeo.com/terms
 * Privacy policy: https://vimeo.com/privacy

**Google Maps** shows a map in a Contact section when you enter an address.

 * What is sent and when: when the map comes near the screen, the visitor’s browser
   loads it from maps.google.com. Google receives the address you entered, the visitor’s
   IP address and browser information.
 * Terms of service: https://maps.google.com/help/terms_maps/
 * Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

### Privacy

 * The plugin adds no cookies, does no tracking and stores no data of its own.
 * It collects nothing from visitors. Outside services load only as described under“
   External services”.

### Credits and third-party code

The plugin bundles no third-party libraries.

 * **JavaScript:** the editor and front-end scripts use only the WordPress packages
   that ship with WordPress itself (React, `@wordpress/blocks`, `@wordpress/block-
   editor`, `@wordpress/components`, `@wordpress/i18n` and others). They are loaded
   from WordPress core, not copied into the plugin.
 * **Build tool:** `@wordpress/scripts` (GPLv2 or later) builds the `build` folder
   from `src`. It is a development tool and is not part of the plugin.
 * **Images and icons:** every illustration, logo, portrait and icon in the templates
   and in `assets` was made for this plugin by its author. They are released with
   the plugin under GPLv2 or later. The company names in the logo templates are 
   made up.
 * **Shared helper:** `src/vendor/softicon-tools` is the author’s own code, shared
   between SoftIcon plugins, under the same license.
 * **Product names in sample text:** names such as YouTube, Vimeo, Spotify, Apple
   Podcasts, App Store and Google Play appear only as example button or link text.
   They belong to their owners; the plugin is not affiliated with them.

### Development

The human-readable source code is included in the plugin, in the `src` folder (JavaScript,
SCSS and the block files). The `build` folder is generated from it with `@wordpress/
scripts`.

To build it yourself you need Node.js 18 or newer:

    ```
    npm install
    npm run build

    src/vendor/softicon-tools holds a small helper shared between SoftIcon plugins, written by the same author under the same license.
    ```

## Blocks

This plugin provides 1 block.

 *   Ready-Made Template Pick a ready-made section from the template library: hero,
   features, pricing, FAQ, team, gallery, contact and more, with video and audio
   built in.

## Installation

 1. In your WordPress admin go to **Plugins  Add New**, search for “SoftIcon Ready-
    Made Template” and click **Install Now**, or upload the zip file under **Plugins
    Add New  Upload Plugin**.
 2. Click **Activate**.
 3. Open a page or post in the block editor and add the **Ready-Made Template** block.
    The template library opens on its own. Watch the [30-second tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H770mo2pJfM&list=PLAkrswTRlP6g).
 4. Pick a template, then click any text on the block to change it. Media, links, lists
    and colors are in the block sidebar.

## FAQ

### Where do I change the text?

Click the text on the block and type. Links, media, list items and the button style
are in the block sidebar under **Content**. Colors, background and layout are under**
Style**. The [editing video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGK9RoziPVI&list=PLAkrswTRlP6g)
shows it.

### Can I switch to a different template later?

Yes. Use **Templates** in the block toolbar or **Change template** in the sidebar.
The block takes the new template’s content and design; undo brings the old one back.

### Does it work with my theme?

Yes. The block works with block themes and classic themes. Every template brings
its own colors and spacing and takes the theme’s fonts. Use full width alignment
for edge-to-edge sections.

### Where do the template images come from?

Every illustration in the templates is drawn for this plugin and ships with it under
the same license (GPLv2 or later). Replace them with your own images from the sidebar.
No image is loaded from another website.

### Does a YouTube video load when the page opens?

No. A popup or in-place video loads only after the visitor presses play. Background
videos load when the section gets close to the screen, and never for visitors who
ask their device for reduced motion. See “External services” below, and the [video and audio tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wM-76BcG2B4&list=PLAkrswTRlP6g).

### The template shows a play button but nothing happens on my site

Add the video link in the sidebar first. Without a link the site shows the poster
image only.

### Is there a contact form?

No. The Contact templates show your details, a map and buttons that open email, 
a phone call, WhatsApp or directions. The plugin sends no email and keeps no messages.
To collect messages on the page, add a form block from a form plugin next to the
section.

### Is it accessible?

Buttons, accordions, the lightbox, the audio player and the price switch work with
a keyboard and screen readers. Animations stop for visitors who ask their device
for reduced motion.

### What happens to my pages if I deactivate the plugin?

The sections are drawn by the plugin, so they disappear from the page while it is
deactivated and come back when you activate it again. Your content stays saved in
the post.

### Can I add my own templates?

Developers can add templates and categories in the block editor with the `alrt.templates`
and `alrt.categories` JavaScript filters (`wp.hooks.addFilter`). A template is a
small JSON object; see the `templates` folder for examples.

## Changelog

#### 1.1.0

 * Changed: the contact form is removed. The Contact templates now show the details
   on a card with a map and buttons for email, calls, WhatsApp or directions. Pages
   that had a form keep their details and map; the form no longer shows.
 * Changed: the template library is part of the editor script, so it opens without
   a server request. Add-ons use the new `alrt.templates` and `alrt.categories` 
   JavaScript filters in place of the PHP filters.
 * Changed: a new settings sidebar with a Help panel (video tutorials, support, 
   rating) and one open panel at a time.
 * Removed: the “Video tutorials” link on the Plugins screen; the videos are linked
   from the block’s Help panel.
 * Smaller server code, so the block can be listed in the Block Directory.

#### 1.0.1

 * New: video tutorials. A “Video tutorials” link on the Plugins screen, and short
   tutorial links in the block placeholder, the template library and the sidebar.

#### 1.0.0

 * First release: the Ready-Made Template block, the template library and 77 templates
   in 12 categories.
