• Hello, I am new to using Nimble Builder and I am greatly satisfied with its performance. I would like to ask on the following:
    1. How can I utilize gradient background on sections?
    2. Will Nimble Builder be able to create page templates(post, page, etc…) in the near future?
    3. Can it create submenu/nested menu?
    4. Can it create vertical menus?
    5. Will more widgets/components be added?

    I hope to see Nimble grow as it is has a very great potential. More power!!!

    Hello, thanks for opening this topic.
    1. Nimble Builder does not include a gradient background editor for sections, columns or module. You can apply a gradient background by adding a few lines of custom CSS rules in the custom CSS setting of the current page options ( documented here ). You’ll find many gradient background CSS generator online, like this one : https://www.colorzilla.com/gradient-editor/
    You can use the section id to target a specific section with your CSS rules. It would look like :

    
    [data-sek-id="__nimble__9e0619c008a8"] {
        background: #febbbb;
        background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #febbbb 0%, #fe9090 45%, #ff5c5c 100%);
        background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #febbbb 0%,#fe9090 45%,#ff5c5c 100%);
        background: linear-gradient(to bottom, #febbbb 0%,#fe9090 45%,#ff5c5c 100%);
        filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#febbbb', endColorstr='#ff5c5c',GradientType=0 );
    }
    

    2. Templates : yes, this is under active development and test at the moment. In the coming days, Nimble Builder will include a new set of features allowing users to save templates, and apply them for a page or make it the default template for all pages, posts, search page, 404 page, etc.

    3. the menu module of NB uses the menus created with the built-in WordPress menu interface (on which you can create submenus)

    4. No there’s no module to create vertical menu for the moment.

    5. Yes. New modules are being prepared like a list module, a tab module. A pro version with additional features is also being currently tested, scheduled for April.

    Nicolas, that is great news! I can’t wait for the upcoming new features. Will there be a Nimble FREE and PRO versions then? I hope that the FREE version will still be available to the community when the PRO version will be released. I will be using Nimble to create our school website.

    By the way, is there any method to create or include animation with the modules like for example sliding text or images? I was also trying to create two inline buttons on the same section but could not find the option as they are always stack vertically. A display inline option will be very useful.

    Regarding shadows, I noticed that sections can have shadows but how do I change the color of the shadow? I could not find the option to change the color of the shadow. How do I apply shadows to text elements as well?

    Exploring Nimble Builder for a very short time was an exhilarating experience. Nimble in my opinion is very flexible and has a very least learning curve. Thank you Nimble Builder team for your generosity and sharing it to the community. MORE POWER!!!
