01:34 Okay, there we go. Excellent. Well, I'll say hello to everybody again. Matias and
01:40 Chris and Johan and David. Tracy, thanks for popping in. Uh hopefully my sound's good now. Um, yeah, I will I'll debug
01:49 that. I say I fixed it last week and I saved the file and it didn't save the configuration. Not sure what's going on.
01:55 Okay, but hopefully you guys can hear me now. It looks like I see the little audio meters going up and down, so it thinks we're good. Okay. Um,
02:05 sweet Dr. Bob Tim, thanks for popping in. Okay. Um, so
02:12 today, uh, we're going to just give a tour of stack 6, uh, beta 48. Okay. Uh,
02:19 I know that, uh, looking at the names here, I know a lot of you that are are already in the chat have already played
02:26 around with, um, stacks. Um, maybe you'll learn a few things today. Um, I'm
02:31 also going to be going or doing a preview of um, the next big shipment of
02:37 Foundation 6. I've done a lot of updates to Foundation 6, mostly behind the scenes to kind of make it all stack six
02:44 ready. Um, and it will update. It'll be a global. It'll work for both uh
02:50 STAX 5 and STAX 6. So, uh, yeah. What's kind of cool is the theme is all
02:55 integrated now. Um, so once I ship this update, you can trash that beta theme that I that I sent out and it will now
03:03 be all updated inside the stack, which is really cool. Okay. Um, but without
03:08 further ado, let's go ahead and um Oh, Tim says, "Total newbie. Good thing
03:14 to know." Thank you very much, Tim. Uh, let's go ahead and share my screen.
03:20 Right. And let's bring up stacks. Okay. So, I
03:26 have been working quite a bit this week on um, as you probably saw, I shipped a
03:31 a lot of updates this week. uh mostly for stack 6 compatibility um to update
03:38 some same kind of how PHP is handled inside stacks preview wanted to make sure everything uh there worked peach
03:43 keen um so yeah get all those updates they that same stack version will work
03:48 in both um yeah pretty much any stack update that I ship I'll make sure it
03:54 works in both right or I'll try to okay um and I have redone a lot of the
04:00 project files as well um so uh there stacks versions of all these particular
04:06 project files done already. Okay. Uh which is nice. So if you were to ever
04:12 redownload your original purchase, uh the STAX project will be in there. Um I'm not sure I I probably haven't made
04:20 it so that the STAX project downloads automatically show on my website uh on
04:25 the Weaver Space. Um it's on my to-do list. Okay. So many things to do. Okay.
04:30 Um so there we go. All right. Let's um let's start a brand spanking new project
04:36 though. Okay. Um well, first thing I I want to I want
04:41 to show off something actually really quick. I'm going to quit stacks really quick. Okay. Uh I just delete that.
04:48 And I'm going to open up an existing project file. Okay. Uh let's find one that has uh bunch of that's kind of big.
04:55 Actually, this total CMS project file is actually quite large, right? So, we're going to go ahead and open up that.
05:01 Okay. And what you might what you should notice right there, which is one of my
05:07 favorite things about stacks, okay, six, is that um man, you just open the
05:13 project and you're ready to go. Like like that is just such a breath of fresh
05:20 air. Okay. Actually, you know, I'm going to give a tour of stack 6 um in this
05:25 project file. Um I'm not going to dive this is a total CMS3 project. Um, I'm not going to dive into total CMS3. I
05:31 just want want to give you guys a tour of kind of a live working project file. And since this I this is one I've
05:38 recently created, um, yeah, it kind of works. Okay. Um,
05:44 so hopefully when you open this, it should feel very familiar to you, right?
05:51 Let me go ahead and actually turn on my I know you guys like appreciate this little this little doodad here. Okay.
05:57 Um, this should feel very familiar to you,
06:04 right? You open up this app and it feels kind of new but also home, right? It was
06:10 actually a user on the community um posted today that uh somehow he he
06:16 missed the notes that STAX had a standalone app and um he got my email last night and downloaded it and uh he
06:23 had been using uh the other app that is uh currently in in the works and development from another uh company and
06:31 he was frustrated because it was just something that was just completely it was like all new. he had to relearn everything and um he downloaded stacks
06:39 uh six and he said it just felt like at home, right? And so yeah, uh what's
06:46 great is all of your existing stacks um should work, right? Uh we're working on
06:51 there's obviously this is a beta, so there is are going to be stacks that might not work. Let me or that developer
06:57 know um and uh we can get that fixed. If you have a stack where the developer is
07:02 like maybe completely MIA, um, let me know. Um, and I'll I'll see what I can
07:07 do. May maybe it's a bug in stacks that we can debug. Um, if it's something with the particular stack itself, there's
07:14 probably not much I can do, but um, I'm happy to help to see if it's a problem with the compatibility with stacks,
07:21 right, with the new app. So, uh, please let me know or post it either on Weaverspace community or on Discord.
07:27 Okay. Um there is a a full-blown uh Discord uh
07:33 chat for uh stacks, right? Um it's been really active lately which has been
07:39 awesome. So go ahead and check out the your head software Discord channel. Okay. And uh yeah, there we go. Um and
07:47 obviously Weaverpace. Uh you can also post on Stacks for All too. Uh right, that's another great community for the
07:53 stacks world. Okay.
08:00 Okay. Um, so let's give a quick tour, right? Um, over obviously over here on
08:05 the left pane, we have our pages. Pretty standard for most apps, right? U, we
08:11 have our pages. Um, and you can have subpages and all that jazz, right? Actually, in this I actually don't have
08:18 subpages here. There's currently a we'll call it a bug um that lists images as a
08:23 page. So this particular image is actually this one right here which is on the troubleshooting page. Um so I'll try
08:30 to point out some of these little oddities that um are known issues as well as we go through today. Okay. So
08:36 yeah um they just kind of show up underneath here. Um it's an image um that's added to this particular page. It
08:44 shows up as like looks like a subpage. Um it's a bug. I think it's actually that bug is actually fixed or slated to
08:49 be fixed in beta 49 I think. Okay. um which is the next beta. Um so yeah, all
08:56 of our pages and then uh up here uh we have uh
09:01 various other things. We currently have layouts. I'm going to skip over that right now. We'll come back to that.
09:06 Okay. And then there's going to be images and assets. Okay. Um those currently are disabled. Uh but they'll
09:13 be um pretty apparent. They'll be where you can store your images and then where you can store maybe some site assets,
09:20 right? So, you know, uh documents or PDFs or zip files maybe or something
09:26 like that, right? So, there'll be a an assets thing here to manage your assets. Okay. So, um but right now we just have
09:32 pages and layouts enabled. Obviously, next we'll notice that we
09:38 have the library. Okay. Uh you can show or hide the library based on, you know,
09:44 what you want. Okay. Um, I find when I'm working on my laptop and I have a smaller screen, um, yeah, it I find it
09:51 if I don't really need the library to add stuff, right, we can I just close it that way. It gives me lots of space.
09:56 Obviously, that's probably I don't need that much space on my huge desktop here, right? But, um, yeah, that's a nice
10:02 thing. Also, the library is completely resizable. Um, so that's really nice. Um, the the whole app is uh very
10:08 responsive uh, which is a good thing. Okay. Um,
10:13 next up, uh, we in the library, we have all of our groups. Okay. Uh, you can
10:19 create your own groups. If you want to migrate your existing groups from STAX 5, you can do that. Um, I have a post on
10:27 the community. I'm not going to dive into that. There is a post on the community that shows you how to do it. It's just moving a a couple files over
10:32 from your add-ons folder into the into the new stack 6 add-ons folder. And voila, you'll have all your groups um,
10:38 set up, which is super nice. Okay. Um
10:45 filtering has moved down to the bottom. There used to be a find up at the top. Um it's kind of standardized. A lot of
10:51 like you know Mac OS um kind of have filtering and searching on bottoms of their panels, their side panels. So
10:58 that's why that has moved over there. Okay. Um
11:05 updating there's the update window. Right. So now um we have the new stacks update window. Um and it's checking for
11:12 stacks now. Um and let's see if we have any stacks for updating. See, I might.
11:20 Um
11:28 actually in this beta, the button got moved over here. It was over here earlier. Um works much better on the on
11:33 the right, I think.
11:38 What's kind of cool in this window, you can actually click on this this little bad boy here and you can like get like a
11:43 little running log which is kind of fun. Okay. Um so yeah, if and if you see any
11:49 um issues like this particular stack right here um had a download error, right? Um, so yeah, I mean I've
11:56 personally gone through and um checked all my stacks to make sure that my stacks don't have any issues and uh from
12:02 what I understand most of them look like they work okay. Um but yeah, if you have any errors um they'll show up in here
12:09 and it'll kind of give you a detailed of why that particular stack had an error updating. Okay. Um I do have a lot of
12:17 errors in here. Most of them are quite old or dated stacks or some of these are actually probably custom stacks that
12:23 I've built for myself. Um but yeah, there you go. Okay, so if you have any issues um downloading some updates, go
12:29 ahead and click on this little bad boy and you can kind of see a little running log of what that is. Pretty nice little
12:34 feature. Actually, there's this little this little info button throughout various places um in the STAX UI. Um if
12:42 you click on it, it opens up a various uh panel that has like some more detailed information. Okay. Kind of raw
12:48 detailed information. It's quite nice actually. I like it. Okay. Um if you were if you if I did have updates. Okay.
12:54 Um you would, you know, click update all. And then what's nice is after you update this button will will change to
13:01 be a restart button. So you can click on that and it'll restart the app, right? Because if we ever update any stacks, we
13:07 need to make sure that we restart stacks. Okay. So there we go. Okay. Um
13:13 then we have the preferences. Uh, this is the preference for um the
13:18 preferences. This used to be at the bottom of the screen. Okay. Um, funny enough, the filter used to be at the top
13:24 and the settings used to be at the bottom and they flopped. Okay. So, now we have this and you can change your icon size. I do not like the small. Um,
13:31 I'm going I'm going to go back to large. I large or or medium sometimes. It depends on how I'm feeling that day. Um,
13:38 so anyway, yeah. Although I think I like the medium actually
13:44 medium compact. That was what I I used for a while. Actually on my laptop I I use medium compact because my laptop has
13:51 a slightly smaller screen. Um but on my desktop here I like using um large.
13:58 Okay. And you can also do um show uh oh show hidden stacks is turned off right
14:03 now. So you can't do that yet. Um but that will be a option. I don't I recommend just most people have that
14:10 turned on and then they get confused because there's some I ship a lot of like child stacks and whatnot and then
14:16 you'll see all of those in the in the in the library and sometimes that can confuse people. So, um yeah, show hidden
14:22 stacks. Um you can turn that on and off there eventually.
14:27 Okay. Next in this you'll notice at the top there are two tabs here uh because not
14:33 only do we have stacks but we also have themes.
14:39 So here um one two three themes are come
14:44 with stacks app. Okay, obviously we have the Foundation 6 theme and then um this
14:50 Reason is a uh this is Reason Pro from Rapidweaver. Um and I'm working on a
14:56 version of that for um for stacks. Okay, so I'm working on migrating that theme.
15:02 Um, it was an old Nick Kates theme and um, I purchased most of his back catalog
15:08 and so from from him I acquired all the source code for that and so we'll be revamping those um, so that they work
15:15 um, inside stacks. Okay. Um, so yeah, selecting your theme. Um,
15:21 one way I'll show you other ways in a little bit, but one way you just go ahead and just doubleclick on the theme
15:26 and that will set the theme for the project. Okay. What's kind of cool here is if you
15:32 notice uh when I clicked on base theme, the styles here in edit mode changed, right? Um that's because the styles in
15:41 your theme affect your content. So stax is actually um importing all of that
15:46 data from the theme and applying those styles to your edit mode content as well, which is super nice. Okay, so this
15:54 is just the base theme, which is essentially like no, no extra CSS. This is kind of like the base browser styles,
16:00 right? Um, and then if we go to Foundation 6, voila, we'll notice that boom, we have, you know, kind of much
16:06 nicer, larger text. Our button came in because obviously that button is specific to Foundation 6, right? So
16:12 that's a nice thing where theme styles from your themes actually get applied into edit mode. Uh, which is a super
16:17 nice feature.
16:25 Okay. Um, so that pretty much does everything for the library for right now. Um, I'll note one feature that that
16:32 I miss. Okay. Um, is inside filtering. Um, we used to be able to just say I
16:38 don't want to search for um, search for agent, right? Oh, well,
16:44 um, so let actually let me let me scratch. So that obviously searches. I'm gonna go into this group, which is just
16:49 my foundation six stacks. Okay. And then I'm gonna search for agent.
16:54 And if you look, it didn't show up. Okay. Um, in SAX 5, there was a search
17:00 feature that uh it was actually uh called Joe mode. Okay. That no matter what group you were in, it always
17:06 searched all um all stacks. Um Joe mode hasn't been added to stack six yet. Um
17:14 so, um I like Joe mode, so I don't know if you do too, but uh anyway, I think
17:20 that would be a great add-on. Actually, you know what? I I was just thinking it would be nice if like in this little spy
17:25 glass, you click on it and then you can select the scope of the search. That
17:30 would be really nice. I'm gonna I'm filing a bug for that one, Isaiah. Okay. So, yeah. What do you guys think about
17:36 that? Let me know in the chat. Like a little, you know, like when you do a find and replace, you know, have a lot
17:41 of times you click on the spy glass and it's like a little submen and you can configure your search features. That's
17:46 what we need here. Kind of like this right up here where you can have, you know, icon size this stuff. just have like a little, you know, click on this
17:53 and you have search all or search by group, right? That'd be that'd be slick.
17:58 I think that'd be a great idea. Okay,
18:04 Chris, you do not like Joe mode. Oh, man. You're fired. You're fired, buddy.
18:09 Okay. Um Okay, next up, our content area. Um
18:17 not much to say. We have um edit and we have preview. Okay.
18:23 Uh the first time you hit preview, it takes a little bit longer because it it actually launches this the web server um
18:29 as that. So there we have preview. Okay. And edit mode. Okay. Um we have the you
18:34 know the same thing. We have the ability to hide stacks, lock stacks um just like we could before. Obviously the toolbar
18:40 is slightly different. Um but yeah, it's edit mode. Not much has really changed
18:46 here. um it should feel extremely comfortable um for you. Okay. Uh there there is the ability to double click to
18:53 hide as well, which is what I love. Um and um
18:58 actually with that, let's go ahead and show you. I I don't remember if that's on by default or not. Okay. Um, I'm
19:05 going to dive into this the app settings really quick and um
19:11 before we go into the the this right panel, okay, because this right panel's got a lot of stuff. Okay, so um
19:20 here we have obviously the the view modes, right? So, uh the coloring, right? I I per personally like the
19:26 stacks library although to follow it follow my system appearance, right? But you can force that to be light mode if
19:31 you want. No thanks. in edit mode. Um I think by default it is follow system
19:39 appearance. I don't like that either. Okay. Um so uh
19:44 I I prefer my my edit mode area here to always be light even though the rest of
19:50 my app or my rest of my OS is dark mode. Okay. Um that's my preference on how I
19:56 like things. Um but yeah, you do you. Okay. Um, and if you're to be honest, if
20:02 you're working on foundation, I think always having light mode in the edit area is good. Um, and here is why. Okay.
20:09 Um, at least by default, right, normally on by default text on your website is
20:14 going to be black, right? Um, I'm going to I'm I'm going to Hold on.
20:20 Before I dive into that, do we go into that rabbit hole? All right, let's go into that rabbit hole
20:27 for a little bit. Okay. Um, because it kind of matters. it's related to this. Okay. So, if you if you do love edit
20:34 mode and you're using foundation, um you can go ahead and change I'm just going to change just the header colors right
20:40 here. So, um pretend that I already talked about these tabs and we're in the theme settings tab. Okay. And, uh we're
20:46 going to go into header and let's just change our header colors, right? And that should
20:53 Oh, yeah. Now, I I I hadn't tested this before, so I should have tested this before. Um, wonder if it's
21:04 Oh, dang it.
21:09 Let's go swap in here. So, oh, okay. It doesn't happen dynamically. If I swapped
21:15 and went back, you'll see. Boom. Now, now everything is light. So, um, this works great if you have a dark website,
21:21 right? Um, and then then you could default all the colors to be dark mode. Okay. Um, but most people you have um,
21:30 yeah, a light website and you want dark text. Okay, so um, anyway, there we go.
21:38 Uh, I'm going to sweep that back to or let me just put all this back. My bad. Give me a second, guys. Here. Let's just
21:45 do RGB. I'm going do 222.
21:51 That wasn't what I want. 222. 222. There we go. And then we're going to go into
21:57 the text. One, two, three, four, five, six. Enter.
22:04 Voila. All right. And just for fun, we'll click click. There we go. Now we're back. Okay. Um All right. Small
22:10 little tangent. Wasn't too bad. Let's look through these uh the rest of this the um settings. And the reason why I
22:17 went into these settings was because um doubleclick label is now a setting in
22:22 the app. And you can configure what that does, right? Um, I choose hide selected
22:28 stacks. Okay. If you want, you can have double click lock or you can have it show the library info or you can have it
22:34 show the stack settings. Okay. Actually, you and you can have multip Oh. Oh, I thought you could have
22:39 multiple. You can't. It's one or the other. Okay. But if you double click inside the stack. Okay. I like to show
22:47 stack settings. Okay. So, what does that mean? Okay. So, if I double click inside
22:52 this stack, okay, it takes me to my stack settings. If I double click on the label, it hides
23:00 it. That's how I like the interface, but you do you. Okay. And yeah, you uh
23:06 there's more options here than there were in stacks 5. Okay. Um again, I personally like that. I like double
23:12 click to hide and then double click inside the stack to show the stack settings. I like it. Okay. Um, there are
23:20 some other various settings in here. Um, probably just leave all these at the default. Um, I think the CDN stuff's
23:27 going to go away. I'm I'm pushing for that. I I hope I hope it goes away. I I I don't think Stack should be using CDN's at all. Um, all right. And then
23:35 some developer stuff. We're not going to dive into those. Okay. Um, so let's go
23:41 into the last bit, which is um where we're going to be spending a lot of a
23:47 lot of your time building uh websites is in this right pane. Okay. And this right
23:53 pane pretty much goes from right to left actually. Okay.
24:00 So let's start from the right side. And this is our site settings.
24:07 This is where you're going to define um your site title, um the site subtitle,
24:12 uh the site's website address, right? And what's nice is that you have a link and you can open up the website address
24:18 straight from there. Okay. Um this is where you can set up your default file name and your default extension. And
24:25 what's kind of cool is you can say always use default extension so that um
24:30 all your pages will will always be forced to use that extension.
24:35 I prefer this always being PHP with that checked. That's how I like it. Okay. Um
24:42 and the copyright information um you know that can go in your page meta or whatnot.
24:48 Then we're going to go down here and uh this is where we set up our defaults for
24:55 themes and whatnot. Right? So um our homepage, this is where we define what our homepage is, right? So by default
25:02 it's going to be the first page in your project. Okay, up here. Um, but you can change that to be whatever page you
25:08 want. Next, this is another way. Now, I showed you previously how we can change the
25:14 theme. Um, but this is another way to change your theme. Okay? And just to show you, if I go into here and if I
25:20 double click on this, um, and then go back to my site settings, it it changes
25:25 it both places, right? So, it changes it in both places. So, let's go ahead and do that. Go back to site settings. Okay.
25:32 Next is layouts. Okay, I uh we're going to look at layouts last after I go
25:39 through all these PES, but this is where you can define your um primary layout for your website. Okay, you can have
25:46 multiple layouts like I do in this project and um you can define which layout is your primary layout. Now,
25:53 actually um this checkbox here um I think it's fixed in beta 48. This used to be on by default. It should be off by
26:00 default. And I recommend you turn that off unless you need it. Okay. Um, what
26:06 this does is it basically adds extra libraries to the page to support old versions of jQuery. Okay. Um, I
26:14 recommend just turning that off unless you experience issues. Remember that whole in Foundation 6 I added that
26:20 little pop-up box that hey, you might need jQuery compatibility mode enabled, right? This is essentially that, okay,
26:27 built into the app now. Okay. So you can add instead of adding that child stack in site styles, you just check this box
26:34 now. Okay. So there we go.
26:41 Excuse me. All right. So that is all of your site settings. Now let's get a
26:47 little bit more granular. Well, actually, okay. Um this this next tab is going to be um info. Okay. And what that
26:55 is is it's info about the selected product that you So if I select on this,
27:00 it gives me a little bit of information here. If I go to my stacks library, okay, um and I click on a stack, it'll
27:06 give me some more information about it, right? Um so yeah, um we're going to add a little bit more to this like um
27:13 currently uh the help URL isn't there, right? So uh there'll be links for like
27:18 where to get help and stuff like that. So there'll be actually some useful information here. You can also always
27:24 get to this if you double click on any. So it doesn't matter. Let's go into this. Right? If I double click on any
27:29 stack, it will take it'll open up the info um in the info pane for that
27:34 particular stack. Right. Which is nice. Okay.
27:40 There we go. Okay. Um Okay. Next up is
27:46 the theme settings. Okay. Okay. So now obviously we've set the theme to be foundation and um I'm not going to dive
27:53 into the foundation hole just yet. Okay. But what you will notice here a at the
27:59 top there is another way a third way now to define your the theme the default
28:04 theme. Okay. And all of these things are set right. So if I go ahead and change this to be base theme okay you'll notice
28:11 that it changes there. And if we go over here it changes over there. Right? They're all linked. Okay. Um, but
28:17 obviously we want to use Foundation 6. Well, you'll notice with Foundation 6, um, all the settings that we used to be
28:24 able to see inside site styles are now in the theme, right? So, all the theme will have access to all their settings
28:29 here. All right, moving on a little bit further up is we have our page settings.
28:39 So, this has to do with the actual page that we have selected.
28:44 Now uh here obviously we have page title, we have the folder name, the file name. Okay, and STAX is actually really
28:53 nice. It has very elegant default folder names and default file names. So if you
28:59 just leave these particular fields blank, okay, um you actually can't do that for
29:05 the homepage. But if you go to any other page, okay, um I'm going to go and add a new page just so we can kind of see
29:12 this. Okay. Um, I'm gonna say this is my new page. I
29:20 gave it a really big name. Right now, if you notice what STAX
29:26 did is it um, it's going to publish this particular page to this-is-my-
29:32 new-page. We're not going to have page one, page two anymore, right? We have
29:38 smart intelligent folder names and the file name is always going to be named index.php.
29:44 Well, it's PHP because I went to go ahead and change my default extension to that. But if I had left this to be uh
29:50 HTML or blank, then um the default page name would be index.html,
29:55 right? And what's really cool is um I can update this um
30:01 okay and STAX will intelligently rename the folder for us. Okay. Now, if I ever
30:08 go ahead and give it a static folder name, then it's they're now like the the page title and the folder name are
30:15 segregated, right? Um where the folder name is now managed by me. Okay, which
30:20 is nice. Okay.
30:26 Um another nice thing is um right in here we have the access to the preview URL for this page as well as the website
30:34 URL for this page. So we can quickly go online to this particular website page
30:40 um just by copying that. So if we want to quickly copy the URL to this page online, just click on that. It's copied
30:46 to my clipboard. Pretty easy. Okay. Um next we have the ability to turn off
30:51 publishing and turn whether or not this um page should be added to the navigation. Okay. Um themes now have the
30:59 ability to kind of build out navigation. Um, and yeah, this will either add it or remove it from that navigation. Okay,
31:06 with Foundation, we still have all the same great menu stacks that we have access to where you can build your menus using the Foundation menu builder. Okay,
31:15 next up is we have the ability to override a particular um page with a different
31:23 layout or theme. Okay. And what that means is I go ahead and click on this
31:28 and then I would select um a different layout or a different
31:34 theme. Okay.
31:39 So there um we'll show you an example of that in a little bit. Okay. But this allows you to um again by default it's
31:46 going to use the default layout that is um defined here. But then we'll we can
31:51 override that at the page level. which is really nice. Okay, let me see if
31:57 there's any questions. Is it possible to see the HTML code
32:03 generated? Um, yes and no. That is a great question.
32:09 Um, there isn't the ability to do it within Rapidwaver. However, okay, uh, if we go to, uh, view
32:18 and go to show preview folder in Finder. Okay. Um,
32:26 we have access to all of the code here. So, page of of it and I can just open
32:31 that in my code editor and voila, there's the actual code.
32:36 Okay. Um, so yeah, there isn't the ability to view view the code directly
32:42 inside the app. Um, but you do have the ability to see the exported code here.
32:47 Okay. And what's actually kind of cool here, let's actually see this. Um, so if I go ahead and open this up
32:55 here, let's just open up like this entire folder.
33:01 All right, I'm actually curious. I I haven't tried this idea yet, but I just had an idea to try. So, I'm going to go
33:07 ahead and open up this index.php. Okay. And um let's I'm just going to do um
33:16 updated. I'm just going to add that to be updated. Okay. Um,
33:22 and I I'm expecting it's not going to it's
33:27 not going to automatically update it in the background here. Let's do what was it? Demo overview.
33:37 Nope, it's not. But if I go ahead and preview it. Okay. Um, it it did update the the
33:45 source code dynamically. Um, so that's kind of nice. Um, but you do have to preview it right now. Okay. So, there we
33:53 go. Um, all right. Let's delete that so I
33:58 don't mess up my project. There we go. Good question. Um, maybe that's something that could be added in the
34:04 future. You know, a a code view, just a a quick, hey, what does the exported HTML look like? I could see that as
34:10 being beneficial. Okay. Uh,
34:16 what is the default file base? Uh, default file base. Uh, file base. Oh.
34:24 Oh, this default file base. Um, I recommend you never change this. I'd
34:30 recommend you always set this to be index. So, what that means is if I set this to be page, okay, now inside my
34:37 pages, um, well, uh, it will all be called page.php, PHP my my the file name
34:44 will be called page.php. Right? So here page.php,
34:49 right? So that's what that means. Okay. I recommend just sticking with index on that. I I don't have a use case of not
34:58 ever using index, but we have the ability if you need to. Okay, good
35:03 question. Thank you, Scott.
35:13 Uh, that needs to be included as that saved my butt last night for a missing div tag. Um, not sure not sure what
35:20 you're referring to, Scott. Maybe the code view. All right. How is the foundation theme added?
35:27 Um, let's see. Uh, the F6 theme is integrated in the F6 decks. Yes. Um, so,
35:34 uh, yep. We we'll dive into that in a little bit. Okay. Um I think we went over pretty
35:41 much everything with stacks. Okay. Um I should note that you can go view show
35:46 library folder. Okay. And then that will this is now the um add-ons folder for
35:53 stacks. Right. So if you go to themes uh you can have your themes in there and then stacks. You'll notice that I do not
35:59 have a foundation theme in there um because yeah inside your stacks this is where all your stacks are going to be.
36:08 Okay. Um, and then this this file right here, the stacks groups 5.db, this is
36:13 the file you need to move over from your Rapidwaver add-ons folder. So, um, if you go to Rapid Weaver, um, essentially
36:20 what you'd want to do is you just want to take this and this folder, your stacks folder, and your STAX 5 groups
36:27 folder or or file, okay? and move those into um your stacks add-on folder which
36:34 is I have right here. Right? So it'll just be your stacks folder and then that DB file. And then at that point your
36:41 stack 6 will now mimic um your stacks plugin. Okay. In terms of what stacks
36:47 are installed and your groups pretty simple. Okay.
37:00 How do we add stacks? Drag and drop them before or is there a folder? Um, so, uh,
37:05 there's multiple ways now. Um, obviously, uh, you can just doubleclick, um, and it
37:12 should, if you have stack 6 installed, it should override Rapid Weaver's file association
37:19 and it should install it into stacks. Okay. Um, but yeah, you will see here.
37:24 Let's go ahead and here I will quit. I will quit. Uh, don't save. Let's just go ahead. I'm gonna
37:32 take out a stack. Let's just take a agent out. Okay. So, I'm going to take that and I'm going to
37:39 put that on my desktop. And it doesn't let me put on my desktop. What the heck? I'll put it in my downloads folder.
37:45 There we go. All right. So, agent is no longer installed. Okay. Uh, I'm going to go ahead and launch stacks. Okay. And
37:52 I'm going to go ahead and and if you Oh, if your stack icon looks like this, then STAX has the association with it, not um
38:00 the other app. Okay. So, I'm going to go ahead and launch that. And you should you should see this installing. And
38:06 it'll say, hey, um do you want to install it? Saw that it can install it. And if you click on this little eye
38:12 thing, you'll see some detailed information. If it didn't install it, that detailed information on maybe why
38:18 it didn't get installed is all right here. Okay? Maybe you already have it installed, maybe you have a newer
38:24 version installed. There's all kinds of different things that we tested. Um, but yeah, the detailed information for that is there. Um, and then as you see here,
38:31 saying, "Hey, we installed it. Do you want to restart the app?" And you restart and you're done. Okay. You can
38:38 install multiple stacks at the same time as well. Just open them all up at once. It should install them all. Okay. Um,
38:45 now with that said, you can just manually drag and drop them. Okay. So if you just go to um Oh, a project has to
38:52 be open. That's right. Um
38:58 so if we just go to view um show library folder and finder. Okay, you can just
39:04 drag and then drop them into here. Okay, I save this folder in my in my sidebar.
39:10 Okay, so I don't need to keep going window blah blah blah, right? I just open up Finder, go to this folder, and there's my stacks folder. Okay. And
39:17 anything you drag and drop into here, obviously you'll have to restart the app for it to find it. Okay. It's not going
39:22 to dynamically see that you dragged a new stack into here. Um, but yeah, you can add a stack into here and then
39:28 restart the app and it will be installed. Okay. So, hopefully that helps out.
39:40 All right. Is there a better way to just Okay. Um, you bring up a good point. Okay. Um so migrating um I'll do some uh
39:48 here let's do an overview a little bit of migration. Okay. Um so as you see I I I
39:55 had a lot of project files here. A lot of them are ones that came from um demo
40:01 projects that I've been creating stacks versions for. How did I create these? Okay.
40:10 Um I'll recreate this particular page. Um, just for fun.
40:25 And I just realized I I totally have not talked about layouts yet. Okay, so after this I'm going to have to talk about
40:31 layouts.
40:38 Look, it's at 80 90%. I'm going to quit stacks. I'm going to relaunch it.
40:43 Boom. All look like, man, which one's nicer to work with? Come on now. Okay.
40:49 Um, hey, so I wanted to migrate this page
40:54 to this project. Okay, this is my old um Rapid Weaver demo project. Okay, here's
41:01 the new stacks project. Right. And actually here, just for fun, we're going to we're going to delete that. Okay. Um,
41:10 so over here you'll notice that um it's just uh this site styles doesn't actually do anything, right? We we need
41:18 in in stacks 5 world, we need to have site styles on every page. We don't need to have site styles on every page in
41:24 stack six. Okay. Um again, another thing we can talk about, but all I'm going to do here is I'm going to copy this. Okay.
41:31 And then I'm going to paste. And what you might notice is not
41:37 everything came over, right? Images, images don't come over yet. Okay. Um it's something that's being worked on.
41:44 Um hopefully one day we'll we'll we'll have the ability to copy and paste the images. Okay. Um it's already it's a
41:51 known bug. Okay. Um and hopefully uh it'll it'll be working. Okay. But let me
41:57 let me just show you what to do for now. Okay. Obviously, we have all of our images. Um, so either you have your
42:04 images inside of a folder in your Finder or you have them on your website and you can pull them down and drag and drop
42:10 them into here. Okay, but yeah, images don't come along for the ride. Okay, it
42:15 doesn't matter if it's an image that you drag here or an image that shows up in the sidebar, okay, in the stack settings, the images don't come along
42:21 for the ride yet. Okay, um, so how can we access those things?
42:27 Um I I came up with actually while I was building all these project files, I came up with a interesting method for this.
42:34 Okay. Um normally I would say go ahead and preview this and like download the
42:40 images or you know or go to your website that's online and get the images from there. Okay. Um but if we go ahead and
42:47 um inside Rapid Weaver, I'm just going to rightclick on the title and I'm going to open up this folder in Finder. Okay.
42:53 So basically um if you didn't know, you could do that. um that that's a thing, right? Right click on the folder and you
42:59 can actually go to any of these folders and when you click on any of them, it'll open it up in Finder. Okay, so now um I
43:04 have this project file directly right here in Finder. I'm going to right click on this and say
43:10 show package contents. Okay, I'm going to go to pages. Now I know I that these
43:15 images are in page slot machine. So guess what? I'm going to go into the slot machine folder and then I'm going
43:20 to go into data and guess what's in that folder? all my images. Okay. So, what
43:26 I'm going to do is I'm just going to go ahead in here and we're just going to go uh let's see. We need
43:34 we need one and we need two
43:39 and we need three and we need four.
43:46 Okay. Now, I for this particular implementation um all these stacks are exactly the same. So, I'm actually just
43:52 going to go like this, and then I'm just going to drag it in. Boom. There we go.
43:59 Page done. Okay. Now, I I didn't do it in the same exact order. It doesn't really matter in this case. Um, you
44:05 know, I I wasn't careful with that, but it again, it doesn't matter in this particular case, but you would make sure
44:11 you put them in the correct locations. Okay. So, yeah, now this now this works.
44:18 Voila. Um, if you didn't know, this is slot machine randomly. Hey, look, I got a jackpot.
44:25 Okay, what do I win? Winner winner chicken dinner. Okay, there we go.
44:34 All right, so that is migrating. Uh, again, right now, all I did is you just select the stacks that you want,
44:41 command C, go over to stacks, paste.
44:47 Okay. Um, there's some some other gotchas. Um, I don't really use style
44:52 text much. Um, but if you were using um, see I don't use it so much that I don't
44:58 even know where the stack. Okay, like this text stack. Um, if we go ahead and do that, let's just go ahead and change
45:04 some stuff in here, right? I make it like bold, right? I don't know. Let's change like this color of this text to
45:10 be something something else. Okay. Um, and then we make it make it
45:19 bigger, I guess. Okay. So, now I have this this text here. I'm gonna go ahead and copy that.
45:26 And if I paste it over here. Okay. You notice that the the formatting doesn't come along for the ride. Okay. We don't
45:33 lose our content. The text is there, but any formatting doesn't. Okay. Um
45:39 I don't think that will ever be possible to bring over the formatting because um this actually this style text widget is
45:45 a rapid weaver thing. Okay. Um eventually stack 6 will have a style text engine. Um probably not as
45:54 uh I don't know what features are going to be had. Okay. But um it will be different than Rapid Weavers. Um and it
46:02 won't be compatible with Rapid Weavers. Okay. um to my knowledge. Um so there's
46:08 that.
46:20 Um so, uh yes. So, uh James, um James Alton Thomas, I got to call you by your
46:26 full because your name's too cool, James. Um hey, glad to see you. I haven't seen you for a while, so we got
46:32 to call you by your fully because your name's too cool. Glad to see you. I haven't seen you for
46:37 a while. So, you ram a muffin. Um, insider joke. If
46:44 you ever join the hangouts, join the hangouts because then you can get cool insider jokes. Okay. But, um,
46:52 yes. So, stack six, uh, it's it's really close. Okay. But, uh, I would I still
47:00 don't recommend it for production website use. Okay. Um, yeah, there
47:05 there's still I think in the next two betas, I think I think after the next two betas, I think a lot of um the the
47:13 bigger things will be um fixed or resolved and then um it'll be more
47:18 viable for production use. Okay. But for example, um partials, right? This is
47:24 actually something I wanted to talk about. Um if you have a partial over here, uh and you paste it into stack
47:30 six, um you can't really edit the partial. Um you might get a crash. Partials really aren't supported yet in
47:36 stack 6. They've been um yeah, they need some work. So I think that is definitely in the next beta. I think it was in
47:43 either slotted for beta 49 or beta 50, I think. Um so yeah, uh partials currently
47:49 do not work. It's something that will have to be worked on. Okay. Um so yeah,
47:55 there's also a few other quirks um you know with stacks such as there are some
48:00 stacks that have preview and publish. I don't want to go into that um right now. It's a lengthy explanation. It's just a
48:07 a publishing bug that needs to be resolved. Okay. Um
48:14 all right. Now, I had skipped layouts before. Um,
48:20 this particular project does not have one. So, we're going to close this
48:28 and let's go ahead and do uh open. Let's go
48:33 back to this project file.
48:40 Uh, Rihanna asked, "Can you see the resources and stacks like in Rapid Weaver?"
48:46 Um the resources. Oh, you're talking about the resources view. Um those are remember those are uh going to be here
48:52 the images and assets. Um they're going to be called assets now. Um and yeah, that that feature is currently disabled.
48:59 Um but you'll be able to um have assets uh eventually. Okay. Hope that answers
49:07 your question, Rihanna. not 100% sure.
49:16 Okay. Um, so now I've given you a grand tour of the app um, in actually a lot
49:22 longer time than I expected it to be. Um, and uh, let's talk about layouts.
49:29 So, I showed you this this view here. Okay. And, um, a you will notice what
49:34 let's preview this this homepage here. Okay. You'll notice when I preview the
49:41 homepage, okay? Um, I didn't see any of this in my edit. Like in my edit area, I
49:47 have this that that's what I see on my page, right? Where's the rest of that coming
49:53 from? It's not here. And where all of this is coming from is my layout.
50:00 Okay. So in stack six we have something it's completely new construct called layouts where you get to build out your
50:08 page. Okay, and what it looks like. So
50:13 now uh I will put a caveat. There are some there are some known bugs with layouts uh that will I'm working on
50:21 discovering all of them and and filing each individual bug as we speak. Okay, I worked on it last night. Um so that um
50:30 yeah there are sometimes like some settings um in don't translate well.
50:36 Okay. Um it's just how the how everything's processed. But to kind of show you um how things work here. You're
50:42 going to define all of your swatches if you're in Foundation 6 world. And then down here I have my um my banner. And
50:49 then down here we have a cont a column with some padding added to it. And here
50:55 we have a very special stack called content. It's actually right
51:00 there. Okay. And this stack is only used inside of a layout.
51:09 And what this content stack does is wherever you put this stack, it injects
51:16 your page content. Okay. Now, if we go to any of my pages
51:23 here. Okay, I get all of the layout for free
51:29 and all I need to do is worry about editing the page content. This really declutters uh edit mode
51:37 since all we need to do is edit the content of our pages. So all that extra
51:42 fluff that we added in the sidebar and the banner and the footers and and all that stuff and we have to scroll through
51:48 all that stuff to try to find everything, right? It's gone. Okay, in our pages, we have just the
51:54 content that is specific to that page. And then inside of our layout, that's
52:00 where we define everything. Now, on top of that, earlier I talked
52:05 about foundation 6. We'll we'll dive into a little bit of foundation 6 right now. Um, as you notice, I don't even
52:10 have a site styles here, right? And that's because all of those
52:16 site style settings are defined in the theme. now,
52:25 which is really cool. Okay. Um, if you don't have my new uh folder stack, it's
52:30 a part of my free starter pack. So, you have no excuse. Go buy it for free. Go download it for free. Okay. Folder.
52:37 Super awesome. It's kind of like the big brother to pen, which allows you to really organize stuff. It's really
52:42 slick. Okay. So, go check out uh pen and the new pen and folder updates that
52:48 shipped earlier this year um in my starter pack. Okay. Obviously, I have my CMS core uh because this is a total CMS
52:54 project. Okay. And then, yeah, all of our content down here. Now, if you notice here, I have a blank layout.
53:02 Okay. And on this um I have the CMS core because this is a total CMS project. And
53:07 then I have just the content. So, uh, where I used this was on, um, this
53:13 dashboard page where I didn't want any of the theme, right? I didn't, you know,
53:19 or the quote unquote layout. It this the layouts are kind of like a theme builder, right? But on the blank page, I
53:25 didn't want any of that. All I wanted was just the content. That's it. Right? So, at that point, I I created a blank
53:33 layout which has just the content. And that way on this dashboard um when I
53:39 preview it, voila. Right, it looks like the admin
53:46 dashboard for total CMS 3. Again, I'm not diving into total CMS 3 here at all. Um but there is no layout.
53:54 Right now, if I wanted, I can go up in here just to kind of show you. Um let's
53:59 just go ahead and add I'm going to add like a header stack into there or something.
54:04 And let's just add a header stack above that just so we have we have something there. Okay.
54:10 So now I have a header and the content. Okay. So I'm going to go into this dashboard now and we're going to preview
54:16 it. And you notice up here now is the
54:23 header. Then I have the total CMS admin dashboard. Okay. Just so you can kind of
54:29 see what that is. Okay. Now, um I showed you earlier how in the page settings, so
54:34 on this dashboard page, uh if we go into I overrode the styles and I set the page
54:40 style to be this blank layout. So, by default, it's going to use basic layout.
54:46 That's not what I wanted. I wanted that new blank layout that had absolutely nothing in it. Okay, that's how you
54:52 could do that. So you could take this and yeah, you can build out, let's say you
54:59 wanted a layout for a blog page or a product page and a different one for your like about and terms of service and
55:05 contact pages, right? So you can kind of create different layouts um for different purposes, right? Which
55:11 is pretty pretty cool.
55:17 Okay, let's see. Any questions on layouts? Uh,
55:25 does the nav go there as well as in the content? Yes. So, um, inside this basic
55:31 layout, I would I would add my menu in here. Again, this project doesn't doesn't use a menu. Okay. Um, but yes.
55:39 So, inside this layout, this is where you would add your menu, right? So, inside here, I would add um
55:48 let's say I have a menu, right? And I would add that, right? I don't know, maybe right here. Okay. And then, you
55:54 know, you'd add in all your menu items. Okay. And just just for shits and
56:00 giggles, we just create an alt on that or something. Um, and then we go ahead
56:05 and you can preview your layout as well. So, you can preview your layout. Obviously, you don't see any page content. You just see this little
56:10 placeholder. Okay. But now, this is what my page would look like, right? So now
56:16 if I go into the the actual pages now I see the menu. Obviously we need to
56:22 make those menu items white blah blah blah blah blah. Okay. But there we go. Right. So as you see the power and
56:27 that's added to every page.
56:35 Right. So this is a different page different menu system. Right? If I go to the blog page. Okay. Um, different page,
56:44 same menu system, same header, everything, right? Pretty cool, right?
56:49 All right. Um,
57:01 okay. I think I answered all the questions on layouts. Matias, thanks for filtering uh or uh get answering some
57:07 questions in the chat. I appreciate that. Okay. Um, we're already at the 1 hour
57:13 mark, but I just want to review some cool things that I added to foundation for stacks, uh, six. Okay.
57:21 Uh, obviously now, um, as you saw before, um, the foundation theme now,
57:28 uh, if we go into my stacks folder, there is no foundation theme. Okay. Um, so once I ship this update, you can
57:35 actually delete your foundation theme. Uh, the the one that's in here, the beta. Oh yeah, I think it's Foundation 6
57:41 beta stacks theme or something like that. Okay. Um and the theme will is now
57:47 baked into the Foundation stack. Okay. So you don't need to do anything. It'll auto update um and the theme will be
57:53 installed by the stacks updater um and it will all be um kept in sync. Okay.
57:59 Now, what's really exciting about this is there's no longer with with Rapid Weaver, we had to update the theme and
58:06 the stack and then we had that preview, you know, warning sometimes where it's like your theme and stacks are out of
58:12 sync. Well, guess what? All of that is gone because now it's all done with the
58:18 same updater. It's all packaged in the same thing, right? So, that is a huge win for me. Um, I'm really looking
58:25 forward to that. Okay. Um, and yeah, really nice things there. Um, I've
58:32 already shown you how a lot of the site styles, uh, settings are now baked into
58:37 the theme. Okay. Now, but what do we do about our swatches, right? Because site
58:43 styles is where I added all my swatches. Okay. Um, you will notice a site style
58:48 stack inside Foundation 6 or I'm sorry, inside stack six. However, u after this update,
58:57 this site style stack is different than the one inside stacks five. Okay. And
59:03 let's show you. I'm going to I'm going to drag this out to this page. Okay. Um
59:10 and what we'll notice is inside site styles a all the settings are gone.
59:15 Okay. Um there's a few things like you know display the color palette and whatnot and you know things like that
59:20 some minor things. Okay. Um, but for the most part, site styles is essentially
59:27 now a glorified swatches stack.
59:32 Okay. Um, so yeah, you it's just a way you can still access all of your stuff
59:37 in here. Okay. You can add and use it to organize your swatches. But if you don't want to, you don't have to use site
59:44 styles. You can use the swatches stack and you can add swatches directly here. It doesn't matter. site styles now is
59:53 it's just a pretty stack to look at and a way uh that gives you kind of some
59:59 some sort of organization that you can also accomplish through adding multiple swatches stacks to the page or you can
01:00:06 accomplish it by adding by using the new folders stack or through the new there's a lot of ways to um you know organize
01:00:14 swatches now because folder supports swatches now as well too. Okay. So, um,
01:00:19 yeah, site styles is just another way if you feel comfortable and you like using it and like seeing the little colors.
01:00:26 And again, if I go into my theme settings here, if you look, the primary color is set to be the primary color
01:00:32 here. Okay, let's go ahead and change like let's say the I want to change the secondary color. Okay, and I want to
01:00:40 make it um slightly more blue. Okay. Um,
01:00:46 actually we'll go into here. We'll notice that now the secondary color is that. All right. We'll have to talk
01:00:53 about Isaiah about potentially modifying the theme settings and have them dynamically changed here. Not we we'll
01:00:59 see. Okay. Um, but for now, yeah, if you change any of the theme settings, looks like you just you need to kind of swap
01:01:06 the pages and all your settings will are are taking effect then. Okay. Um, so
01:01:11 yeah, all these settings here will be reflected inside site styles,
01:01:18 which is really awesome. Okay. Um,
01:01:25 there we go. I won't dive into the folder stuff here.
01:01:30 Some really cool stuff with folder. Okay. Um, also let's say if you add a pen, um, I also added the ability to if
01:01:38 a pen is inside of a swatches area, you can now add swatches directly to a pen, right? But if a pen is outside of a
01:01:44 swatches area, you can't. Really cool stuff. Okay. Um, made pen a little
01:01:50 smarter and so much more useful. Okay. Um,
01:01:56 there we go. Some other things. Um, okay. In the stacks groups. Okay. Um,
01:02:04 I probably should have took notes on everything I I changed. I changed a lot of just minor things. Okay. Um, we'll
01:02:09 notice that the order of these stacks that show up inside the library has changed.
01:02:16 Okay. This isn't just for stack six. This will also be in stacks five. Okay. Um, now we have layout then text content
01:02:24 then images then buttons, right? Or media then buttons. Okay. The reason I
01:02:30 did this was a lot of times like the stacks you use the most you want like at
01:02:36 the top, right? Okay. So layouts and text are obviously something that we're
01:02:41 going to use a lot of. And text was like all the way down towards the bottom. Drove me bonkers. Same thing with
01:02:47 buttons, right? Buttons were all the way down. I had to scroll to get to them. Um so yeah, so now they're they've just
01:02:53 been promoted a little bit. Um, navigation was moved down because I mean once you set up navigation on your site,
01:02:59 you don't really use those stacks too often, right? So, uh, they were kind of demoted down the list a little bit.
01:03:05 Okay, so anyway, there we go. I just changed the updates, the orders. If you have any feedback after I ship this,
01:03:11 like, hey, can we move this group of icons up or around? Let me know. Um, and we can kind of, uh, reorder these a
01:03:17 little bit. Another thing you'll notice is um inside text there used to be a a stack called
01:03:24 RW text. Actually personally never I don't think I ever used that on a website. Um but obviously that was a
01:03:32 very special niche feature that works only with Rapid Weaver. So that stack doesn't work here. Um essentially it
01:03:39 just integrated various content pieces like the copyright notice and whatnot.
01:03:45 um just add the text to the to a stack and partial it if you want to use it. I mean same thing and that's what I've
01:03:51 been recommending people do that for years. So that stack is gone. Um there was also in the menus there was an RW
01:03:58 menu stack and a RW breadcrumbs.
01:04:04 Um those just you know used the rapid menus. um those don't work in stacks
01:04:10 since they were high uh they were highly tied to the uh navigation builder inside
01:04:15 rapid weaver. Now stack itself does have a navigation um or will have a navigation builder. Um so yeah I haven't
01:04:24 I haven't decided uh what I'm going to do with that. But for right now all the the existing navigation stacks that I
01:04:31 believe most users are using um they will just work. I can copy and paste them over. Okay. Um, so yeah, but the RW
01:04:39 menu stack um, yeah, that's it's gone the way of the dodo. Okay. Uh, we might have a a stacks version of that coming
01:04:46 uh in the future, but yeah, for right now um, use the default navigation
01:04:52 stacks that I've been using and promoting for years.
01:05:03 Are FA icons available? Yes. Um, I saw your post. I still have to play with the
01:05:08 your your I haven't played around with it yet, Bill, but yes, FA icons are still available. You know, some site
01:05:14 styles. They're still right there. Okay. So, um yeah, um I haven't I haven't
01:05:20 played around with your your uh your post on the community yet. So, it's on my to-do list. Um I'll make sure I play
01:05:27 with it before I ship this update, okay? Because yeah, I want to make sure that works. Okay. Sorry about that, Bill.
01:05:36 Um, okay. Let me see if I missed anything else.
01:05:46 Uh, Mari, uh, you asked, so the the the basic things like menu and footer are controlled in one place. That's correct.
01:05:54 So, all that will be controlled in. Oh, in this layout, I don't need the
01:05:59 menu. So, there we go.
01:06:04 Um so B, uh Scott was asking instead of partials, do we use layouts? Now I think
01:06:11 um layouts will drastically decrease our usage of partials.
01:06:17 Okay, because we used partials to create layouts before. We don't need that
01:06:23 anymore because we have layouts. Okay, that doesn't mean partials are less useful. will there there there will
01:06:29 still be a use for them and they're still going to be used um in stacks. So if you wanted reusable components um
01:06:36 across maybe multiple layouts or reusable components across multiple pages um partials are still really
01:06:41 useful for that. Okay, so partials aren't going away um but they're going to be less useful now because of
01:06:47 layouts.
01:07:00 Okay, I think I've answered all those questions.
01:07:07 Okay. Um, other things with stacks. Um,
01:07:13 minor a minor thing. I just did this yesterday. Um, the when you added a a text stack,
01:07:20 um, this is only in stacks six, by the way. Okay. Uh, let me show you what it looked like
01:07:26 before. The default basically the default markdown snippet in stack 6 um is just it's a lot bigger. Okay. And um
01:07:36 the text stack in Foundation 6 used the default markdown snippet. Okay. Um and I
01:07:43 just found it annoying that it was so much markdown. Okay. Um, so now I I've
01:07:48 refined that a little bit so that if we go into uh let's look at that now.
01:07:55 Okay, just add a new text stack. Um, it's just a little bit smaller, right? It still still shows you all the the,
01:08:01 you know, teaches you a little bit about markdown in terms of lists and texts and links and bolds and whatnot, but um,
01:08:08 yeah, it's just a little bit more condensed. So, um, the text stack in stack six, you'll notice that new
01:08:14 instance of it of it will be a lot smaller now, which I I think is nice.
01:08:19 Okay. Um, let me just quickly I'm going to quickly search my work log really quick for um, anything that I've done in
01:08:26 Foundation. One second here. Let me just search for Foundation. Make sure I didn't didn't forget anything. I I've
01:08:32 kind of been working on it on and off for over a month now, just kind of adding little things here and there. Um
01:08:50 uh nothing of any consequence that I'm seeing here. Okay. Um those those are
01:08:55 the big changes. I mean uh you know it's just uh I think reordering these stacks is a nice little thing. The new the new
01:09:01 site styles um and then obviously the theme okay and how all that works and is
01:09:07 integrated with the stacks. It all gets shipped and up and maintained with one product now with one stack that you
01:09:12 install which is huge winner. Okay, I like that a lot. Okay. Um,
01:09:20 hey guys, I think that that's it for the day. Uh, I hope you enjoyed this. If you have any more questions, please uh go
01:09:27 ahead and yeah, let us know on the community. Oh, let me see. Bill, there are several layouts may share some but
01:09:32 not all features. Just copy paste edit. Um, so yes. So if you have layouts uh as
01:09:38 of right now if you have a layout that has similar content um copy and paste
01:09:43 eventually once we have partials you can then partial that data and have the partial inside of layouts right so you
01:09:49 can mix partials and layouts um but partials aren't supported right now so right now if you have multiple layouts
01:09:55 and you want to share some data um right now it would be a copy paste okay
01:10:05 good question Sweet. Okay, everybody. Thank you very much. I
01:10:10 appreciate uh you popping in and spending an hour and 20 minutes with me.
01:10:16 Uh hope you learned a little bit. Hope um yeah, hope you're seeing the how
01:10:21 everything is kind of shaping up and how stack 6 is going to be a much nicer experience for us for editing. Um I know
01:10:29 it I don't know if it the impact of what a layout does is hitting you yet, but um it's really big. Okay. Um, so yeah, go
01:10:37 ahead, play with Stack Six. Remember, it is a beta. Okay. There are still issues.
01:10:43 Um, don't think you're going to be using it for production websites today. Okay. Hopefully pretty soon. We'll see um how
01:10:50 the next couple betas come along, but I don't think we're too terribly far off. I I like how the progress is made. Um,
01:10:58 you'll see a lot more updates from me in terms of compatibility and fixing things and whatnot. So, um, feel free to let me
01:11:06 know if you run into an issue. I'd appreciate that. So, that way I can I can go ahead and fix that and make sure
01:11:11 that it's fixed as soon as possible. So, um, for those of you that attend our Friday hangouts, we'll see you then. Um,
01:11:17 for those that don't attend our Friday hangouts, why aren't you attending? Because they're amazing. Okay. Um, yeah,
01:11:24 a lot of fun. I'm sure we'll talk about more about this. Hopefully, I'll have this new foundation update shipped by
01:11:29 then. That would be that's my goal. I want to have it shipped by Friday. Um, I think I think I can do it. Just some uh
01:11:36 minor things in sight styles I may need to tweak. And then um yeah, that font awesome thing from Bill and that's all
01:11:42 from my to-do list. And then I'm I'm ready to ship this bad boy. So um and on
01:11:48 top of that, okay, all this is this update. It's ceremonious because not
01:11:54 only is this update like like the stack 6 update, it is the 150th update of
01:12:01 Foundation. Crazy. Yep. This update that's coming will be the 150th update to Foundation.
01:12:09 Um that's pretty absurd, unheard of. So, uh hopefully you've enjoyed the ride.
01:12:14 It's been an amazing roller coaster ride and we're on the upswing again, right? So, um, yeah, here's to the next 5 to 10
01:12:22 years, uh, of exciting web development. So, thank you very much. Uh, we'll talk to you guys soon. Hopefully, we'll see
01:12:28 you on Friday, or else we'll see you on the community. Bye.
