Image Resources

<a class="navbar-brand logo-image" href="index.html"><img src="images/logo.svg" alt="alternative"></a>

- Corso uses a pattern image as background decoration for the Header and Footer sections
- To change the image save the new one in the images folder
- Open for editing css/styles.css

- Then find the following piece of code:

.header {
	position: relative;
	background: linear-gradient(to bottom right, rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8), rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8)), url('../images/header-background.jpg') center center no-repeat;
	background-size: cover;

<!-- Slide -->
<div class="swiper-slide" >

</div>
<!-- end of slide -->

- Here replace details-slide-1.jpg with your own file name

		<div class="testimonial-author">Jude Thorn - Online Marketer</div>
	</div> <!-- end of text-wrapper -->

<!-- end of slide -->

Corso uses the Swiper plugin for the text slider. You can change settings like: time between slides, pause on hover, reactions to keyboard and others by visiting the plugins page: http://idangero.us/swiper/api/ and adding them to the Text Slider - Swiper section in js/scripts.js

/* Text Slider - Swiper */
var textSlider = new Swiper('.text-slider', {
	autoplay: {
		delay: 6000,
		disableOnInteraction: false
	},
	loop: true,
	navigation: {
		nextEl: '.swiper-button-next',
		prevEl: '.swiper-button-prev'
	},
	spaceBetween: 70,
	slidesPerView: 2,
	breakpoints: {
		// when window is <= 1199px
		1199: {
			slidesPerView: 1,
		},
	}
});


ICONS

Font Awesome Icons

Corso uses Font Awesome icon font in many sections and elements.

To change one of the Font Awesome icons you can simply replace the classes that you'll find in index.html e.g. fa-atom, fa-key, fa-newspaper with the ones that you need from http://fontawesome.io/icons/

Social Media Icons

To change social media icons in the Footer section of the template, you need to:
- Open index.html from the template folder
- Find the section Social Links in the Newsletter:
- And replace fa-facebook, fa-twitter, and so on... with the classes name that you need from http://fontawesome.io/icons/ in the Brand Icons section
- Also don't forget to replace href="#your-link" with the link to your social page or account

Social Media Tip

If you want to control the way the posts look like when you share the landing page on social media (Facebook, Google+ and LinkedIn especially) don't forget to update the OG Meta Tags (OpenGraph) in the Head section of the index.html file.

<meta property="og:site_name" content="" /> <!-- website name -->
<meta property="og:site" content="" /> <!-- website link -->
<meta property="og:title" content=""/> <!-- title shown in the actual shared post -->
<meta property="og:description" content="" /> <!-- description shown in the actual shared post -->
<meta property="og:image" content="" /> <!-- image link, make sure it's jpg -->
<meta property="og:url" content="" /> <!-- where do you want your post to link to -->
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />

CONTACT FORMS

To receive emails with data from your visitors simply change the line $EmailTo = "yourname@domain.com"; to your email address in the php folder in the following files:

  • contactform-process.php
  • newsletterform-process.php
  • privacyform-process.php
  • registrationform-process.php

Attention:The script only runs online (on a liver server with PHP support) so the forms will not work while the landing page is offline on your hard-drive

If you want to change input fields names, you will need to update them accordingly in the following files:

  • index.html, scripts.js and the php file from the php folder.

Setup A Redirect Page On Form Submit

To setup a redirect to a thank you page on form submit, you need to:
- Open js/scripts.js inside the template folder
- Find the following block of code in the form section

function rformSuccess() {
	$("#registrationForm")[0].reset();
	rsubmitMSG(true, "Request Submitted!");
	$("input").removeClass('notEmpty'); // resets the field label after submission
}

- And change it to:
function rformSuccess() {
	$("#registrationForm")[0].reset();
	window.location.href = "https://yourlinkhere.com";
}

- And replace inside the quotes https://yourlinkhere.com with your link
