Why is there a small gap under the last row of SW Cards?
After 2026.07.30.19.25, multi-row card grids use row gap between rows instead of bottom margin on every column, so the last row should sit flush with the module content box (aside from Module Inner Spacing you set).
Where do I set text and link colors for the SW Body + Inset card?
Open Style → Content Colors. Use the main Text Color / Link Colors for the body Content Area. Expand Inset Content for the inset card’s text and links. Card background, border, and radius stay under Inset Card Styles.
Why does Module Inner Spacing work on SW Pillar Section even when Module Outer is off?
After 2026.07.30.21.35, Module Inner Spacing always applies to the inner pillar content column, whether or not you enable a Module Outer band. That matches Cards and CTA Simple Bar. Use Module Outer Spacing for space around the full-width outer band when Outer is on.
When should I use SW Basis Page?
SW Basis Page is for privacy statements, legal pages, and other simple text pages — or as a clean starting point when you want to build a custom page from one content block. It keeps the site header and footer and places one SW Body + Inset module in the main area (inset off) with a narrower reading width. Create a new page from SW Basis Page, replace the sample H1 and typography examples, and publish.
Why do modules on Home or General Page show names like SW Hero instead of Home Hero?
Starter templates now label each module with the module name only (for example SW Hero, SW Cards). That makes the page contents tree easier to match to Design Manager. New pages created from SW Home Page or SW General Page after this update get the clearer labels. Pages created earlier keep their old custom names until you rename them in the editor or create a new page from the template.
Why does my page scroll sideways a little when I use SW Cards?
On full-bleed SW Cards sections, older builds could pick up Bootstrap row side margins that made the document slightly wider than the viewport.
From master 2026.08.01.09.59, SW Cards neutralizes those gutters, clips the outer band, and keeps background/video layers inside the section. After your developer updates the theme, hard-refresh and republish the page.
If scroll remains, also update SW Hero and SW Section Divider to the same Finish Up—those modules were hardened so they cannot widen the page either.
Can SW Section Divider make the whole page scroll horizontally?
SW Section Divider used to break out with viewport-width sizing on some themes, which could add horizontal page scroll. Master 2026.08.01.09.59 removes that breakout and clips the bar to the section.
Keep the divider in the same drag-and-drop Section as the content it shapes. If a thin scroll remains with cards on the page, update SW Cards as well.
Does SW Hero cause horizontal page scroll?
SW Hero from master 2026.08.01.09.59 clips overflow on the outer band and fills background video inside the clipped wrap (no viewport-width iframe sizing).
If you still see about 15px of sideways scroll on a page that also has SW Cards, update Cards to the same version—that was the usual residual cause on Chromatic home testing.
Why does SW Blog Cards make my page scroll sideways a little?
On full-bleed Blog Cards bands, older builds set headings, content area, and CTA to width 100% while also applying left/right margins of half the card gutter. That combination made the document a few pixels wider than the viewport (about 13–15px on some homes).
From master 2026.08.01.10.23, those blocks use auto width capped at 100%, and the module root clips horizontal overflow. Card gutters and alignment are unchanged.
This is separate from the SW Cards Bootstrap row-gutter fix.
Why aren’t my header parent menu items (with dropdowns) clickable?
HubSpot Advanced Menus can assign a page or URL to a parent item that also has a dropdown.
From master 2026.08.01.10.42, SW Header Simple keeps that URL as a real link and uses a separate caret to expand the submenu on mobile. Desktop still opens the dropdown on hover. If HubSpot provides no URL, the module does not invent one.
Legacy SW Simple Header on older sites gets the same fix and is no longer available for new content—prefer SW Header Simple for new headers.
