Button Labels / Button Text In Many Layouts And Add-ons Not Changeable In SPPB 4.0.1 (and Two More Bugs)
Janosch
Hi,
at first: WOW! What a nice work you have done so far with Page Builder 4! That's a new level!
I know you do not recommend to use it on a production site right now, but: I started building a completely new website on July 29.. and while installing a Joomla, I received your e-mail announcing the new Page Builder. So I decided to use this version from the beginning on this fresh installation of Joomla. I know, that there are some minor bugs, and I can be patient about that.. because the advantages are so huge!
So, these bugs I found so far, maybe you can fix them in the next version:
1.) I f insert the add-on »single button« – there is no field to change the Button Text / Label. (If I add a »button group«, there is the ability to change that for every single button in the options of this add-on.)
The same issue is on the ready-layout-blocks, for example »content 13« and »content 14« – no way to change the button-labels..
In some of the ready-layout-blocks this works, for example in »pricing 3« or »feature 2« it is possibly to edit the button labels.
2.) It is not possible to change the field label or field placeholder or field name in the add-on »contact form«. If I use the add-on »form builder« I get a little contact-form insertet as an exampel and there I can edit the single fields and rename them, but if I add the add-on »contact form« there is unfortunately no possibilty to change/edit the single form items. I am from Germany and would appreciate if I can use the add-on »contact form« and just customize/rename the field placeholders and labels quickly. I assume it should be easy to implement that, right?
--> the same goes for the add-on »opt-in-form«. There is also no way to change the field labels or field placeholders.. would be very nice to be able to do that!
3.) If I add on one page the same layout block (for example the block »feature 2«) two times or more, only the first one is usable. If you insert the block two times and click on the second one, there is for example no »control-stripe«.. (actually it shows the control stripe on the first inserted block when you click on the second one..) somehow they seem to be »connected« and disturbing each other, even with its settings -> e.g. you can right-click on the second one, chose »options« and then change for example the background color.. then the background color of the first block changes as well (in the edit-mode), but, somehow even more strange: this background-color-change is not visible if you preview the site.. If you just have one instance of this block and change there the background color, it is visible at the front-end..
I hope my descriptions are clear, if not, please ask for further details.
Thank you very much for this great piece of software!

Accepted AnswerHi there,
Thanks for contacting us. Sorry for the inconvenience. Please check your questions answer.
1.) I f insert the add-on »single button« – there is no field to change the Button Text / Label. (If I add a »button group«, there is the ability to change that for every single button in the options of this add-on.)
No Problem found

There is no way or feature/function to change the placeholder or filed name change option is contact form. If you need to change field name or placeholder name. Then you have to use the form builder.

Can you share an screencast video?
-Thanks

Accepted AnswerHi, thank you for your answer.
ad 1) you say "no problem found" and send two screenshots, but the problem is there. In the first screenshot you showed me the result of a single button, but not the field, where you changed the label. Are you really sure, that you used the add-on BUTTON (and NOT »button-group«)? In you second screenshot you showed me not a single insertet button, and again not the way how you changed it.
To make it clearly: I can change the button-label on many buttons, but in the cases I mentioned in my first post under 1) the field "label" is missing, here are two screnshots of this:
Here is no field "label": https://prnt.sc/a3TMT_DsRGp9 in the options again, no way to change button-text: https://prnt.sc/23xmcgNAOu1x
Please try again and / or show me exactly where to change this.
ad 2) I know that there is currently no way to change this, this was a wish, that you can change that. Because the way it is at the moment it does not make sense (and it should be easy and possible to change that, isn't it?) maybe you can add this to your road-map, because the predesigned contact forms are really nice, so why don't make this more flexible (with a function that exists already.. two clicks away in the same program..) even if it is just from the point of international use and/or multilangual sites it should be possibly to edit/change the fieldnames and placeholders in predefined contact forms, what do you think?
ad 3) you can easily try it by yourself, just add the design-block »feature 2« two times behind each other and try to edit the second one.. have you tried this? Pleasy try it first before I have such a huge work of making a screencast-video..
kind regards,
Janosch

Accepted AnswerSo, I found the issue of our missunterstanding regarding my first point with the button label.
I use Safari Browser (current version) and I can't edit content (text-blocks or buttons) directly »live« on the site, it's just not working (another bug?). So I guess you changed the button label by just typing it after you clicked on the button?
Screenshot: https://prnt.sc/ylDM2FphMzWC
If you insert the block »pricing 3«, in the button settings there is a field to change button label, see this screenshot: https://prnt.sc/Skwr8HzKQ4mw
But in the button settings of the add-on »button«, there this label field is missing, see here: https://prnt.sc/Knl1smUFCLJE
And, it's very strange.. in some of the layout-blocks that contain buttons the field for the button label in the button settings is there, in some not.
Can you now follow this issue?

Accepted AnswerI have added your issue on our working board. I hope our developer team will fix this issue. Thanks

Accepted AnswerThank you very much! Maybe your developer team can solve the other issues, too. (The thing, that in Safari Browser you cannot edit e.g. text blocks, button, etc. in the editors preview.. I saw already another thread here about the same issue)
And could you comprehend my third point in the meantime?
All in all: really nice work, your page builder! Have a nice day!
