So many glitches

I’m so frustrated. Maybe it’s because I’m new to EditorX. I normally use the classic editor with no issues.

The editor vs preview vs live are so different and glitchy. It looks fine in the editor and preview, but once live it looks so glitchy. Even with cascading on devices. Hours of work to fix and update. I change the mobile version and it changes the desktop version too!

Does anyone have any tips or tricks?

Here are few tips and tricks I employ

  1. Set your Site Styles first

  2. Establish your header(s) and footer (s)

  3. Set your grid

  4. Have content assign to the grid rows and columns as needed

  5. Avoid having text blocks set to narrow, as a shrinking screen quickly diminishes the width of one.

  6. Mind the inspector, more so than moving and sizing elements manually

  7. Use stacks! Did I say use stacks.

  8. Use layout and repeaters

  9. Mind the weight of files uploaded

  10. Do not overuse animations

I hope this helps. If you have any thing specific please share and reference.

Thank you for this. I will watch some videos on it. I think i’m just super frustrated. How do you use grids and stacks? I use the inspector, but is there a way to move elements that way vs manually dragging?

@jwcreativecompany I only use the inspector to move, size and position. Please do start with the Grid tutorial:
