Hi

Canvas 5 and/or 6 Light Weight Template Question
Is there a way to reduce the overhead for a basic page.

We want to have a basic template and have to include all the assets (CSS, JS etc.)

Regards
Barry

Hello,

This is Definitely Possible but this comes under Customization, so you can consider following the steps below:

  1. We recommend generating a Custom Package here: http://docs.semicolonweb.com/docs/getting-started/installation/ according to the HTML Files you need for your website and our Package Generator will sort the Files for you to download. Suppose, you need the demo-seo.html Template, simply choose this File in the Package Generator and then press the Generate button. A Custom Package will be generated for you only based on your selected file.

  2. For CSS, we recommend you use the style-imports.css File to include/exclude CSS according to your needs.

  3. For JS, simply remove the js/plugins.min.js File from the Page and everything else will work automatically. Our smart JS Functions will automatically include only those JS Plugins that are required on the Page. Additionally, please make sure you keep the Files in the js/ Folder intact as they are required by the js/functions.js File, to detect and include plugins on the respective pages as required.

Additionally, these suggestions are specifically for Canvas 6. For Canvas 5, you will need to do this manually for JS and CSS Files.

Hope this Helps!

Let us know if we can help you with anything else or if you find any further issues.
