Creating a prebuilt layout

By WowThemes.net, 9 years ago. Last reply by Gordon Robins, 8 years ago.

Hi, guys, congratulations for this clean useful plugin, I’m currently building a theme built on it, so far all worked great and this, due to your huge & smart effort. I’m stuck though at what I call the most important part of a commercial theme, offering prebuilt layouts to customers. Without this step I could as well use shortcodes and I really wouldn’t want to go back to that practice.

I’ve read everything I could about it but honestly I don’t know if it’s some kind of secret well kept :) but the info is almost zero, anyone not practical at all, just hints and not even those work. In example I started by adding in wp-config ( I understand this is the correct way to start) define(‘SITEORIGIN_PANELS_DEV’, true); , after that I was supposed to see the Page Builder Data in the HTML source of the built page (?) , but nothing.

I also noticed you guiding people to this page for documentation: https://siteorigin.com/docs/page-builder/bundling-prebuilt/ but the page is at the moment blank, also not sure why. My question is “is this something we are suppose to know how it’s done or maybe leave it poor documentated on purpose for who knows what reasons”.

I’ve worked more than a month at this project, of course this is my problem only, but I was hoping, as a last attempt, that this forum would bring some light on this topic. How can a developer create a prebuilt template that customers can choose from? By the way, a donate button would be useful, I want to show my appreciation for your work and thank yous don’t pay your bills.

    Ok, please, disregard my message, a possible solution: disable all of the other plugins (for those who have the same issue this might work.).
    Cheers!
