About TWILLI Air Theme - top
TWILLI Air is a responsive one-page scroll HTML/CSS/JS theme/template, with a simple and minimalist concept.
The template is best suited for websites with minimal and concise content, but allows for more content to be displayed in elegant popups.
Bootstrap 3.1.1 is used in the theme sections structure.

HTML Structure - top
The main page (index.html) of TWILLI Air is structured as follows:
Main Menu - top

To edit the main menu, you have to look for the <ul id="main-menu">.
- Each menu item links to a section (see section Sections below) in the main content.
- Each menu item should follow this format:
- If you want to include a link which doesn't scroll to a section inside the page, remove the "scroll" class from the <li>, and include the external link in the <a href="[link]">
Sections - top
Each website section is contained in an <article class="section-wrapper"> tag inside the <section id="main-content">.
- It is important that each section is given a unique id.
- You can set a custom background for each section by setting a "data-custom-background-img" attribute for the <article> tag. This should be a URL linking to a background image. (More information about the website background(s) is found in the section Page Background Images below)
- The theme includes six types of sections:
- Intro Text - includes a header, a short paragraph, and can include a button.
- Text / Generic - includes generic content (text, images, etc).
- Carousel - includes a Bootstrap slider, with each slide containing an icon, text, and an optional button.
- Features Grid - includes a grid with separate feature items each having an icon and a short sentence.
- Featured Items - includes a maximum of 3 features consisting of a thumbnail and a short sentence. Each item may be linked.
- Contact - includes a short paragraph and a contact form. (IMPORTANT: change the email address at the top of the assets/php/mail.php file to the email address that you want this form to send to)
You can edit/add to/remove/duplicate these sections how you prefer and according to your needs, as long as you give them each a unique id and don't change the following HTML structure for each section:
[... content to edit ...]
Page Background Images - top

The theme is designed to have at least ONE high-resolution page background image, which stretches along the whole page.
To set the default page background image, insert the image URL in the <div id="outer-background-container"> at the beginning of the <body> tag, as indicated:
As a fix for IE9 browsers, repeat same background image URL in the footer of the index.html file (Javascripts section), as indicated:
$(document).ready(function(){
jQuery("#outer-background-container")
.backstretch("[repeat same background image URL]");
});
Custom Page Backgrounds for each section
The theme allows the possibility for the background image to change whenever a user scrolls to each section.
You can set a different background image for each section by including the image URL in the "data-custom-background-img" attribute for each <article class="section-wrapper">. (Read Sections above for more about each section)
If no background image is specified for a section, the default background image is shown by default.
Semi-transparent black overlay
The theme design includes a semi-transparent patterned black overlay on top of the background images. This ensures that the white text is readable. If you want to remove this overlay, comment/remove the <div class="background-image-overlay"></div>.

Although TWILLI Air theme is intended to be minimalist as possible, you can still include more content in popups.
To add a new popup, create a <div class="content-to-populate-in-modal"> anywhere inside the page, give it a unique id, and insert content, as below:
[... content which will be included in the popup ...]
Then, to link a button/link to this popup, add an onClick event to the link/button as indicated below:

Carousel - top

TWILLI Air theme includes a Bootstrap carousel in one of the sections (<article id="carousel">).
Each carousel within the page should consist of the following (taking our example as guide):
- The carousel is contained inside a container as below:
[...]
The unique id is important, and needs to be initialised in the JS file /assets/js/initialise-functions.js, as below:
$('#[unique id for each carousel]').carousel({ [...] });
The "data-height-percent" attribute is optional, and set the percentage height that the carousel should have in proportion of the window height (on large, non-mobile viewports).
- The carousel includes indicators (slide titles as navigation):

These are found inside <ol class="carousel-indicators title-indicators">, and should represent all the carousel slides.
It is important that the "data-target" attribute for each indicator is the unique id of the carousel.
- Each carousel slide is found inside <div class="carousel-inner">, as follows:
[... custom slide content ...]
- The carousel includes navigation left/right arrows to move from one slide to another. These are found at the bottom of the carousel container:
It is important that the "href" attribute for each link is the unique id of the carousel.
Image Carousel in Popup - top

The theme also includes Owl Carousel, a responsive slider/carousel which allows you to create elegant image sliders.
In TWILLI Air, Owl Carousel can be placed inside a popup (see section Content Popups above), and initialised when the popup is opened.
The content for the image carousel is placed inside the <div class="content-to-populate-in-modal"> as below:
Every Owl Carousel which are found inside a popup and have a class of ".popup-image-gallery" are initialised in the /js/initialise-functions.js when the popup is visible, using the Bootstrap "shown.bs.modal" carousel event handler:
$('#common-modal').on('shown.bs.modal', function()
{
[Owl Carousel parameters]
});
The Owl Carousel parameters here can be modified how you want. More information on these can be found on the Owl Carousel website: www.owlgraphic.com/owlcarousel
Since the carousel is in a popup, an extra function in /js/initialise-functions.js destroys the carousel when the popup is closed (it would be re-initialised when popup is re-opened). This is done using the Bootstrap "hide.bs.modal" carousel event handler and the Owl Carousel destroy() function:
$('#common-modal').on('hide.bs.modal', function()
{
[...]
});
Please note that although TWILLI Air comes with this type of image carousel INSIDE a popup, you can still use Owl Carousel anywhere in the theme where you want. If you want to do so, or to create a different carousel with different parameters, use the same HTML described above but remove the class ".popup-image-gallery". Then, intialise it in /js/initialise-function.js or at the footer of the page using the unique ID of that particular carousel instead of the class.

When installing this theme, it is important to change the email address at the top of the assets/php/mail.php file to the email address that you want this form to send to.
The form includes the following fields:
- Full Name - required
- Email Address - required
- Contact Number
- Message - required
Social Icons - top

To edit the social icons list, you have to look for the <ul class="social-icons">.
- Each social icon item should follow this format:
-
- A list of social icons options (which are used in the <img>) is found in the directory /assets/images/theme_images/social_icons/
