Viewing Touch Widgets

Touch Widgets

These widgets are designing to quickly create three versions of a website for smart phone, tablet and computers.

There are three widget packs - Basic, Navigation and Media. There is also a bulk pack combining all three.

The method is described in the TriSite example which shows how to create the different versions, add the redirect code and test them.

There’s also a couple of pages about preparing images and other media files for the different versions of the website. Hopefully these will help EverWeb users create mobile pages which perform much better in terms of download speed!

A widget for creating tables has been added to the Touch Widgets pack.

The widget can create tables with two to six columns and three to six rows. If more rows are required it's just a matter of adding another widget.

There is an optional table head which can have a contrasting background and font color. Alternate rows can be "zebra striped" and this can be applied to odd or even rows.

The tables can be easily copied and pasted and quickly adjusted in width for inserting them into all three versions of the website.

A widget for creating a Cookie Warning has been added to the Touch Widgets pack. Site owners in the EU and those who market products and services to these countries shold consider adding this to their site if they use data mining scripts such as Google Analytics, YouTube movies, Facebook and Twitter plugins etc.

The widget creates a full width bar at the top or bottom of the page which slides out of view when the visitor clicks the appropriate button. The widget can be used on all three versions of the website.

It can also be used as a notice with a button link which appears on page load on any page if the Force Show button is checked. An example of this can be seen at the top of THIS PAGE.

A similar widget will be available soon with the Flex widgets for those who are creating a fully responsive website.

It seems quite a few EverWeb users are realising that a slider without text info is next to useless for SEO and of not much value to visitors either.

The Touch Info Slider uses the data-title and data-description attributes to add info below the images. Image info can therefore extend to two or more lines. This, in addition to the alt text attribute, makes for excellent image SEO as well as being a lot more informative to visitors.

The Touch Slider has also been updated to use the new background opacity control.

All those who purchased the Touch Media Widgets or the Touch Widgets Bulk pack should have received an email by now with the widgets attached.

The Touch widgets have been updated with the addition of an Audio Module.

The Touch HTML5 Audio MP3 player has had a bug fix.

The Touch Text and Text Wrap widgets have been updated with a control for adding extra padding to text hyperlinks when used on the tablet and smart phone versions of the website. This increases the target area of text links so that they comply with Google's requirements. See THIS PAGE for more info.

The Touch widgets have been updated with the addition of one to create an overlay message with a close button and a link button. The hyperlink can be either internal or external and open in a new window if required.

Both the overall background and the button backgrounds have an opacity control and there are numerous other styling options.

A new widget has been added to the Touch Media widgets pack.
The widget inserts a video using VideoJS and has controls for initial volume, autoplay, preload options, poster image and WebM fallback for older versions of Firefox.

The Touch Module widget has proved popular for product info on commercial websites - amongst other things.

One user requested a version with the capability of zooming the module's image. The new widget can be seen HERE.

The zoomed image size is set in pixels so that a different setting can be used on the full site, tablet and smart phone versions.

All those who purchased the Touch Media widget pack or the Touch Widgets bulk pack should have received a copy of the widget by now.

This new widget was the result of a user request for a version of the Sticky Go Top button which expands on hover to show a message on the full version of the website.

The new widget can be seen HERE and allows for the text on hover to be customised. Scroll down the page to cause the arrow to appear and hover it to see the message.

Two widgets have been added to the Touch Media pack to overcome the problem of background video not playing on iOS devices such as the iPad.

One one widget inserts the video and the other creates a play/pause button which appears when the page is viewed on a tablet device.

For more info see the Demo and instructions.

Launch the page on a tablet device or in the iOS Simulator to see how it works. When viewing using a computer, reducing the browser width will get the button to appear

Hi Roddy,

I'm looking at buying the bulk pack of the Touch widgets but have a query regarding the pricing. The site says that it's $17 but when you click on the add to cart link it shows as $30 and the individual packs are not showing correctly either.

Also, the Touch Media Widgets add to cart link does not work.
Can you confirm the correct pricing for me please?

Many Thanks,

Seán.

My apologies for the confusion. I think you probably landed on a cached version of the Buy page. The Touch widgets were recently updated.

Due to the increasing number of widgets, the Media pack has been replaced by two packs - Image & Audio/Video.

The Bulk Pack now includes these plus the Basic and the Navigation/Link widgets. The correct prices are those shown in the cart.
