FaLang support and 7 new templates added to SP Page Builder 2.4.9

Another new day and another new update. With our pledge to introduce you with all the latest technologies and modern functionalities with SP Page Builder, today we have come up with a new update which brings some exciting features and improvements that will definitely blow your mind. The new SP Page Builder comes with FaLang support to make multilingual site management easier. There are 7 new preloaded templates along with other improvements.

FaLang ready

FaLang is a popular Joomla extension to build and manage multilingual Joomla sites. With the 2.4.9 update, SP Page Builder gets FaLang support which will make multilingual site creation and management much easier. Now you can build and maintain multilingual contents right from the SP Page Builder addons thanks to FaLang support. If you wanted to do it in past, you had to create separate pages for each language. You will get this benefit while using addcional extension also developed by faboba.com.

But now with FaLang, you no longer need to create separate pages, just add multilingual contents on the same page via our addons and serve them according to the language preferences made by the visitors.

No need to create different pages for every single language on your site. Create a single page and add contents in multiple languages on the same page, same addon, in different fields for individual languages. FaLang will manage to serve them according to the language selections made by visitors.

FaLang also has a dedicated commercial SP Page Builder Translate extension that you can use to utilize this benefit. 

7 new prebuilt templates

To give you a much quicker start while building your web pages with SP Page Builder, we have introduced 7 new stunningly designed preloaded templates with this update.

I always thought that setting parallax backgrounds was already there with setting a background image as fixed? Is this a different thing?

Hi Chris, I believe the difference might be that a fixed background doesn't move at all whereas a parallax one can move at a different speed to the rest of the page (though it can also be set to not move at all as well).

Great to see Falang support being integrated and I'll be interested to see how it works in action. Also pleased to see continued development in other areas too!

Hello
Thank you for your power.
But two questions that have never been answered
1 - What's up with Helix 4? I'm counting on God to see him. Publish at least something. Announce Helix 4 release date. We look forward to Helix's lovers.
2 - Why do not add Add-ons management to the builder page? Please see the quix page builder.

Thank you

But as somebody said: It's not a bug, it's a feature. It's how mobile browsers works.

Thanks for this awesome component!
Maybe you could add next time some options for parallax? Like speed or, what might be really cool, horizontal slide effect like this: http://www.pixxelfactory.net/jInvertScroll/ :)

Due to security reason, we will not release any official PHP addon.

If you need this for all pages you can use Helix3 features in Custom tab, or PhocaSite plugin which allows you to add any custom code for example in < head >

Parallax.JS might be famous, but it is not the best solution. As stated by the author/maintainer: It does not work on mobiles/tablets. Please, do another research for a better solution! I remember, I have seen cross-platform parallax effects that do work on mobiles, too!
However, you might add an option to ommit script loading on mobile devices and offer the static image as well.

Great work Joomshapers !!!
Falang integration is free but... Falang itself for PagaBuilder is not.
Maybe Faboba should have a free version even with a decreased functionallity...

Actually you can use SP Page Builder Translation with or without Falang , it's an independent product. to help the translation of the Great SP Page builder component.
I'm thinking to release a free version only with 1 or 2 addons supported (heading and text_block)
