What is an Helper CSS?
These are CSS classes that help achieve some additional styling that the theme cannot achieve. As much as most of the functions of a theme are intuitive, with forms to enter data, with drag and drop tools among other facilities, the use of CSS classes is useful.
Available helper classes:
container |
This class is used to set the width of the page content. Useful on pages with the Full Width Template |
|---|---|
has-holder |
This class should optionally be used in the first section of a page. With it active, a margin the size of the Navbar will be applied at the top of the page. |
climb |
This class will skew the section upwards to get the effect of overlapping the section above it. |
Tip
Using Helper CSS is optional. If when building your pages you don't find the need for it, just do it your way. This is a feature implemented to make work easier.
