Your Joomla dashboard stays the content engine, and SP Page Builder becomes the design powerhouse.

Get Started With Instant Layouts  

The best part is you don’t have to start from scratch. As soon as you create your dynamic article pages, you’re greeted with pre-built, smart layouts, already wired up with the right dynamic addons.

  • A polished Article Index layout, styled and ready.
  • A detailed Article Page layout, complete with all the fields you need.

Just style it, and make it yours.

Create Buzz Around Your Articles with Native Comments

Creating a comments section for Joomla Articles used to be a hassle with third-party tools, extra costs, and designs that never quite fit. Not anymore!

SP Page Builder’s brand-new, built-in commenting system changes the game, bringing you a seamless, fully integrated solution that looks and works flawlessly right out of the box.

Beautifully Customizable
Design your comments section your way. Place it anywhere, style it to match your brand, and customize every detail directly inside SP Page Builder. No restrictions, no compromises.

Complete Control at Your Fingertips
Manage everything effortlessly. Approve, edit, publish, unpublish, or delete comments with full moderation power. You can even control anonymous comments and approval settings with ease.

Seamlessly Integrated
Your comments will now feel like a natural part of your site. Setup takes just minutes, and the design blends perfectly with your content and layout.

Engagement that Thrives
Keep the conversation going with replies and reactions that spark meaningful discussions and keep visitors coming back for more.

But hey, don’t just listen—see it in action! This is your chance to transform your ordinary Joomla articles into something truly extraordinary.

There are glitches on your old system. Were they also fixed? When you drag and drop a text area into a section, if you changed the fonts and the template colors from the back end settings, it will glitch. When you go to PAGES then hover your mouse over the text box or any elements the elements' name will be white or not visible. Its like on hover changes the font color to white so you cannot see it. If you were trying to rename the element there is a little pencil edit icon, all of that turns white and you have to move the mouse around quite a bit before you can see it for half a second and then you need to aim at the right place to click on an invisible icon and if you are lucky you can find it and then only use backspace to delete the name and write the new one.

Looks like a great update.
But does the comment function work with the Dynamic Content detail pages?
If I put it in, I just get an empty space.
And is a rating also planned?

Thank you.
So I understand that a comment is stores as part of the article and thus needs an article mandatory.

When will we see a photo gallery addon that is usable? So mainly to generate thumbnails and be able to set the layout in columns? Bulk image upload is fine, but then you have to manually reduce the image sizes and select one by one for thumbnails if you want to have optimized website speed.
