How do I turn on the SW Testimonials slider?
Style → Slider settings → turn on Use slider when overflow. The slider only activates when you have more testimonials than Desktop columns. Optionally enable arrows, dots, or autoplay. Off by default so stacked or grid layouts stay unchanged.
Where should I put padding and background on SW Testimonials (Outer vs Inner)?
Module Outer is the full-width band (outer spacing defaults to no padding; outer background is for a full-bleed band). Module Inner is the max-width content column—use Inner Spacing for inset padding and Inner Background for color/image/video behind the quotes. Existing background settings paint the Inner layer after the outer/inner update.
How does Read more work as a popup in SW Testimonials?
Style → Read more button → Read more display → choose Tooltip / popup (default) or Inline. Popup opens the full quote in a dialog without growing the card. When Tooltip is selected, use Popup colors for dialog background, text, and link colors.
Where should I put padding and background on SW Cards (Outer vs Inner)?
Use Module Outer Background Options for the full-width section band. Keep Max Module Inner Width on Default. Put padding in Module Inner Spacing. Inner Background default is None.
Why is my SW Cards background not full width after the update?
After 2026.07.29.20.43, section backgrounds live on Module Outer. If the color only fills a centered box, confirm Outer Background has your Theme Color, keep Inner Width on Default, and leave Inner Background as None unless you want a nested fill. Hard-refresh after updating the theme.
Where should I put padding and background on SW Form (Outer vs Inner)?
Use Module Outer Background Options for the full-width section band (Theme Color, image, video). Keep Max Module Inner Width on Default (~1800). Put padding in Module Inner Spacing (upgraded pages map your old Spacing here). Leave Module Inner Background as None unless you want a nested fill behind the form column.
How do I add content below the SW Form?
In Content, use Content below form (empty by default) for legal or supporting copy under the HubSpot form. Style → Content Colors and Content Area Settings control text/link colors and alignment. The copy uses the same horizontal padding as Form Box Settings so it lines up with the form fields.
When should I use SW Body + Inset?
Use SW Body + Inset when you want long body copy to wrap around an optional inset card (callout with headings, image, text, and buttons). The inset floats left or right so short cards do not leave an empty sidebar column. Prefer SW Pillar Section for rigid equal-height two-column layouts, forms beside content, or bullet lists as a first-class feature.
How is SW Body + Inset different from SW Pillar Section?
SW Body + Inset uses CSS float wrap so text continues under a short inset card. SW Pillar Section uses equal-height columns, so a short media column can leave empty space. Pillar also supports form/video secondary columns and a dedicated bullet list; Body + Inset is for editorial wrap-around callouts.
Why is there empty space under my SW Hero when Buttons are empty?
After 2026.07.30.19.25, empty Buttons no longer render a blank CTA block. If you still see space, check Module Height plus vertical middle align (intentional centering) and Module Inner Spacing. Trailing paragraph margin under the last content line is also removed in that release.
