Templates Quick Summary
Slider Revolution comes with a library of premade modules called "templates" that can get you started fast.
Let’s start with a look at what “template” means, in the context of Slider Revolution, from our Definitions section:
Template
A “Template” is a premade module [?] . It has pre-configured layers [?] already in place.
It is designed to be ready for use, either as is or after being modified in the module editor [?] .
Slider Revolution comes with several templates you can use, or alternatively you can create your own templates, thereby allowing you to easily reuse modules you have produced.
Slider Revolution’s template library includes pre-made modules for all kinds of content, from sliders to carousels to complete websites.
When you use a template to kick-start your content creation you have everything you need already in place, with pre-placed and pre-designed layers such as text, images, videos and so on, with animations already applied.
After creating a new module using a template as a base you can modify any part of that module as you need. You can also save any module you have created, or modified, as a reusable template of your own.
Templates vs Modules from Scratch
When should you start a module from a template vs. creating a module from scratch?
As a general rule work with templates when:
- You’re getting to know Slider Revolution
- You need to deploy content as quickly as possible
Create modules from scratch when:
- You’re more familiar with using Slider Revolution
- You want to create something highly custom
