Key Features of Empress Website Themes
Theme Configuration
This section provides basic settings for your theme. Here, you can select your preferred colors, fonts, and button styles to match your brand’s aesthetics.
Stylesheet Customization
If you have experience with styling websites, Empress allows you to manually write custom styles using SCSS (a powerful CSS extension language) and Bootstrap 4 (a popular framework for building responsive websites). You can overwrite default styles and add new ones in the ‘Custom Overrides’ and ‘Custom SCSS’ fields, respectively.
Included Theme Files
Your website theme doesn’t have to be limited to what Empress provides. If you have additional apps installed, they can also contribute to your website’s theme. You can manage which app themes are included in your website through the ‘Included Theme Files’ section.
Custom JavaScript
For a more dynamic website, Empress permits custom JavaScript code. This feature can be used to manipulate elements on your website, changing their appearance or behavior based on user interaction or other factors.
In conclusion, Empress’s Website Theme feature is a powerful tool that can drastically improve your website’s appearance and functionality. Its user-friendly interface makes it simple to use, while also providing advanced capabilities for more experienced users.
