Automatic Beta Updates

Automatic Beta Updates

Small but a very useful feature we are introducing with UABB 1.4.0 is Automatic Beta Updates.

We follow a Beta testing process while releasing any major version. It allows us provide a working copy of the upcoming release to our customers and get feedback on new features, improvements and fixes. It is a part of our efforts to release only stable and thoroughly tested updates.

So far, our customers had to manually download and install the beta versions. But now, we』ve simplified the processing by introducing a feature that will allow users to easily participate in Beta Program. Just enable the checkbox and whenever a new beta version is available, you will get the update notification right in the WordPress backend.

Please note – beta versions are stable as possible since we release them only after testing internally. But we still recommend you to use them only on staging sites or playgrounds. Do not use beta features on live websites. Learn more here.

UABB Global Settings

UABB Global Settings

Global settings make things dynamic and allow you to control possible things from one central place.

Just to take an example – default color of buttons is determined from the global settings. So if you decide to change this throughout your website later, you can make just one change here to let it take effect on all UABB buttons used on the website.

Settings made globally are overwritten by the settings in the individual module. If you keep the setting values blank in module – they would be controlled from global. This would come very handy especially for templates that we』re providing with UABB. Since most of you would not want to use our template 「as is」 – we have provided global settings so you can make them 「yours」 with just a few clicks.

Please note: Since the Ultimate Addons for Beaver Builder is 100% compatible with Astra, Beaver Builder Theme and GeneratePress, the addons automatically adopt your theme settings. The Global settings button will not be seen in such cases.

You can enable UABB Global settings by following the steps mentioned below:

1. Create or Edit a page and open it in the Page Builder.

2. Click on the Down Arrow on the Left top corner to open the Drop down.

3. Click on UABB Global Settings

4. Enable the Settings and Save

How to White Label UABB?

How to White Label UABB?

What is White Label branding?

White label Branding is the ability to rename and present a product or a plugin as your own. This helps you hide the actual identity of the plugins used and lets you use your brand name instead.

The Ultimate Addons for Beaver Builder comes with an option for white label branding. You can change almost every field to prove that the product is yours and you are the whole and sole developer who has worked on a website.

In order to enable the UABB white label option, you will need to click on 「UABB」 under Settings, open Branding and add all necessary details in the fields given.

Following is an image of how you can fill the details:

Save your settings.

Later, if you wish to hide these settings from your client or anyone who would be accessing the backend of a website, you can simply opt to hide these settings by enabling the checkbox seen below.

Save your Settings.

Want to see where this all will be displayed?

We have a few images for you to understand all the places where all your white label settings will be seen.

This is where the Plugin Name, the Author name, the Author / Agency URL and the Plugin description will be replaced.

The following image shows the replaced Plugin Short name.

This is where your documentation and support links can be put in.

Note: If you wish to see these (Branding – White Label) settings again after hiding them, you can do so by re-activating the plugin from the plugins page.

What are Presets in the Image & Icon settings?

What are Presets in the Image & Icon settings?

The Ultimate Addons for Beaver Builder has a module named Image/Icon. You can use this module if you wish add an image or an icon within a stylish background or a suitable color theme.

If you select to add an icon using this module, you will find the Preset 1 and Preset 2 options besides the Icon color presets under the general settings of the module.

These settings allow you to match the icon and its background color to that of the theme you are using.

Preset 1: When you select this option, the icon will remain white, while the background will inherit the primary color you set in the UABB Global settings.

Preset 2: When you select this option, the icon will inherit the primary color you set in the UABB Global settings, while the background will remain white.

You can take a look at the following image to see the color that gets inherited from the UABB Global settings.

To know more about the UABB Global settings, you can refer to the article here.

How to enable / disable modules in UABB to reduce server requests?

How to enable / disable modules in UABB to reduce server requests?

We have developed a new feature, called the 『UABB Modules『 that lets you disable the modules you are not using.

This feature has separated the module files in such a way that when you disable a module, there won』t be a server request for the respective files.

Core BB already has a module enable / disable functionality. But, it is not effective to reduce the server requests.

UABB module』s enable / disable functionality acts on a top layer than the core beaver builder module enable / disable setting. This means, that if you disable the module from UABB Module settings, it will not be displayed in the core beaver builder modules list.
