When should I use SW Feature List instead of SW Cards Products?
SW Feature List is for comparison-table layouts. It works when the same feature names run down the side and plans, tiers, or options run across the top with cells showing checks, icons, short text, or small button stacks.
SW Cards Products is better when each plan or product should stand on its own as a separate card with its own bullet list. If the layout feels like a spreadsheet, use Feature List. If it feels like separate tiles, use Cards Products.
How does SW Feature List handle mobile layouts?
On small screens, SW Feature List can use horizontal scrolling for plan columns while keeping the first column fixed. That helps users compare plans without forcing the whole table into a cramped mobile layout.
When adjusting colors, preview the table at a narrow width. If transparent colors do not work over the module background, use a solid theme or custom color so labels, checks, and icons stay readable.
When should I use SW Simple Hero?
SW Simple Hero is for website pages and landing pages. It supports common hero-section needs such as a headline, supporting copy, optional image, background image or video, and primary calls-to-action.
Do not use it for blog listing pages or single blog post pages. Those use SW Blog Listing Hero or SW Blog Post Hero.
Which hero module should I use?
The right hero module depends on the type of page. Blog listing pages, including index, tag, and author views, use SW Blog Listing Hero. Single blog posts use SW Blog Post Hero.
Website pages and landing pages use SW Simple Hero. The modules are separated because blog pages need post-specific data and website pages need general page hero controls.
Did SW Simple Hero change how photos render over background images?
The documentation notes that on recent themes around 2026.04.29, image-style SW Simple Hero modules with a background image may render the main photo as a real image layer with responsive sizes.
The Cover and Contain choices in Style still apply. Users generally do not need to change their content; they should publish after the developer updates the theme.
When should I use SW Testimonials instead of SW Cards?
SW Testimonials is built for social proof. It works well for client quotes, author photos, titles, company names, and optional read-more behavior for longer quotes.
Use SW Cards instead when the layout should be a card grid or slider with icons, images, videos, buttons, or multiple CTAs per card.
How do I show every testimonial fully expanded?
To show every testimonial fully expanded, open SW Testimonials and find the Read more labels group under Content. Turn Enable read more off.
When read more is disabled, each testimonial row shows the full rich-text quote instead of a shorter excerpt with a read-more link.
When should I use SW Text Headings?
SW Text Headings is for one or more standalone headings. It can be useful for section titles, divider-style headings between long modules, or headings over a flat background, photo, or video band.
If the same block needs body copy, bullets, or CTAs, use a content module such as SW Pillar Section or SW Simple Hero instead.
When should I use SW Button?
SW Button is for a standalone row of buttons. It is useful after a content section when you need one or more calls-to-action aligned left, center, or right.
If the buttons need to live with headings, paragraphs, images, or form content, use the larger content module that contains those elements instead.
When should I use SW Form?
SW Form is best when the form itself is the focus of the section, such as a contact page, newsletter signup, or gated asset form. It can include optional headings above the form and a styled form box.
If the form needs to sit beside an image, video, testimonial, or longer supporting copy, use SW Pillar Section and set the secondary column to Form.
