ARCHITECT is a visually appealing theme that uses UIkitty for advanced javascript effects. We created the Architect with simplicity in mind and background images that allow architectural features to stand out.
Please download Architect and let us know how you've customized it and what we could do to make it better.
Architect features some great automated features for responsive menus, sticky nav with shrinking logo, animated sticky headlines on homepage content and much more to come.
Check out the DEMO to see how this site works
To use the ARCHITECT theme, you must first download and install the Uikitty base theme.
Site setup is easy
- Create a new content type called "portfolio item". (optional)
All blocks go in like named regions and must be updated in block layouts and saved.
Additionally 2 image styles are recommended to be setup as follows:
- HDBG 1920x1080 - Scale effect set to 1920x1080px
- w860x - Scale set to 860x nothing (dont enter anything in the height field)
- Now create a new image field called "Reference Background" in all the Article , Page and Portfolio item content types.
- Now set each content type's default display to use HDBG 1920x1080 for the default image style using the cog on the right side. (/admin/structure/types/manage/page/display)
- Set the teaser view style to use the w860x image style and set it to link to the content
