SP Page Builder (Pro)

Updated Last: 19 April 2024

Getting Started

SP Page Builder 5 comes with a wide range of fully functional addons and ready-to-use sections and layouts to speed up your process tenfolds. From creating and managing pages to add-ons for every web functionality, it is a powerful solution for site builders of all levels! With SP Page Builder, you can create visually stunning websites while maintaining complete control and flexibility over your content and design. The content editor interface allows you to separate your page builder from your template and get complete control of your content.

The component can be used with almost any Joomla 3.10 and Joomla 4.1 template. And yes, you can switch templates without losing your content, design, colors, and images.

In case you want to roll back to the previous versions of SP Page Builder 3.x or 4.x from SP Page Builder 5.0.x, simply uninstall SP Page Builder 5.0.x and reinstall your previous versions without losing any of your saved data.

Notice! SP Page Builder can be used to edit content built using that extension. It cannot edit layouts made before, based on components, modules, or custom HTML structures.  SPPB can be used also to edit Joomla Core articles, read more in the Integrations section.

We don't offer content migration tools between different Page Builders or content from current (old) articles.

If you still have Joomla 3.10 with SP Page Builder installed - yes, you can upgrade to Joomla 4.x - in case of warnings during Joomla Upgrade Tester with SPPB plugins - just ignore them and go ahead.
