What Does Background Process in UABB Update Mean?

What Does Background Process in UABB Update Mean?

With UABB version 1.20.2 we are introducing a background process. This is related to updating the image URLs in the UABB templates.

In this article let』s see what does process will do and how to run it? But before that let』s understand –

How Images in UABB Template Worked Till Now [before v1.20.2]?

UABB offers pre-designed Page Templates and Sections in Template Cloud. You just need to import them and use on your pages.

When you insert template from Template Cloud, images used in this template are displayed from our server. That means if you import a template on your page and observe the URL for the images used, you will see images coming from our server URLs like –

uabb.sharkz.inuabbtemplates2.sharkz.indownloads.brainstormforce.com

With UABB version 1.20.2 we are changing these URLs for the images that will be stored in the Media Library of your website. And this will be done with this background process on your website.

How Images in UABB Template Will Work Now?

With UABB version 1.20.2 –

When you import/use a template, all required images in the template will be added to the media library on your websiteNow the images will have your website URL as they will be hosted in your media libraryOn pages where you have used templates with these images, UABB will replace the source URL from our server to your website URL.

In this way images, those are used to come from our server will now display from your website』s media library.

Note – This will be applicable ONLY if you use UABB template.

Why We Are Doing This?

Currently, images used in UABB templates are hosted on our UABB server.

With an increasing number of UABB users, the number of template downloads is also increasing. Since images used in templates are rendring from our server it is increasing a load on the server.Increased number of requests take down the server sometimes. Eventually, users face a broken image issue on their websites.

How to Run This Background Process?

When you update UABB to version 1.20.2 you will see notice to run Background Process on plugin』s page. The notice will have 3 actions –

Start the Process – the Background process will start importing images to your media query. The process will run in the backend and you will be notified once done. Remind Me Later – You will get a reminder after 1 week. Till then images will be served from UABB server.

Background Process might take a little time to complete depending on the templates used. This process will run in the backend so you don』t have to pause your work for this. Once completed you will get a notification on the plugin』s page.

Things to Note –

In case after completing the Background Process you see old UABB URLs for images – Don』t worry. We will automatically run the background process every 24 hours for 3 days and upload images to the media. Running a Background process on the existing website will not affect anything in the frontend. It will only add images to the media library. In case you are not using any UABB template please IGNORE the notice.

How to Open a Specific Section of Content Toggle from a Remote Link?

How to Open a Specific Section of Content Toggle from a Remote Link?

You can open either section of the content toggle from a remote link. That means you can use a link on any page to trigger either section of the content toggle. Below are the detailed steps –

Step 1: Add an ID uabb-toggle-init to the parent row of Content Toggle. Note that add ID uabb-toggle-init only. Other ID will not work.

Step 2: Sections of the Toggle module can be identified as content-1 and content-2 IDs. If you want to open the 2nd section use ID 『content-2『 after the URL. That means add  『/#content-2′ at the end to the page URL. 

For Example – 

Consider you have pages A and B. Content toggle is set on page A with section 1 and section 2. You want to open a section 2 of content toggle from page B. In this case, follow the steps –

Step 1: Add a uabb-toggle-init as ID to the parent row of Content Toggle.
Step 2: On page B, use a text, button or anything you wish to link the content toggle section. Use a URL for page A and add #content-1 (for the first section of content toggle ) or #content-2 (for the second section of content toggle ) at the end of the URL. Like -> your-domain/page-name/#content-2

Refer to the following video, which shows that the second toggle element is opened as we clicked on the button which then redirects us to the page having the Content Toggle.
