This new integration lets you apply your template’s predefined color schemes seamlessly, making site-wide customization faster and more cohesive than ever before. 

Style Your Texts Smartly With the Global Typography

The latest SP Page Builder v5.5.5 introduces Global Typography Settings, giving you better control over your site's text styles. Instead of adjusting typography on individual elements or pages, you can now define global rules for fonts, sizes, weights, line heights, and more—all from a single, centralized panel. These settings are easily accessible and can be applied directly through the typography options in your addons.

This powerful feature ensures a consistent look across your entire site while streamlining the customization process, saving you time and effort. It’s typography, made smarter and simpler!

Engage Visitors With Randomized Slider Order

The SP Page Builder v5.5.5 update also introduces a new feature that allows you to randomize the display order of slides in all slider-related addons. 

With this functionality, the sequence of your slider content will shuffle on every load. This ensures that visitors see varied content arrangements, making it ideal for showcasing diverse portfolios, testimonials, or featured items in an engaging and dynamic manner.
