THE FRAME AROUND EVERY PAGE

Header, Footer & Page Title

Vendix Theme draws a simple header, footer and page title when no page builder layout replaces them. The header can be sticky or transparent with a button, the footer holds up to four widget columns, the page title has its own alignment and band, and every page has Page Layout options.

Theme Header

Keep the logo, menu and main action in reach.

The theme header shows the logo or the site title, an optional tagline under it and the main menu. Its options are in Customizer → Vendix:

Sticky header. The header stays at the top while scrolling and gets a shadow once the page moves.
Transparent header. The header lies over the first section of the front page, or of all full-width pages, with light or dark text. Each page can also choose a transparent or solid header.
Header button. A button at the end of the header with its own text, link and new tab setting; on tablets and phones it moves into the menu.

A dropdown that would leave the window opens toward the side with room. With the phone menu open, moving the keyboard focus out of the header or widening the window past the tablet width closes it.

Theme Footer

Put the details visitors look for at the end of the page.

The footer has up to four widget columns (Footer Column 1 to 4) above the footer menu and the footer text. A column is drawn only when it has widgets, so empty columns leave no gaps.

The footer text is set in Customizer → Vendix. On store sites, the checkout and order received pages can show a plain footer with the footer text only; see Store.

Page Title & Breadcrumbs

Introduce each page the same way.

The page title area can sit at the start or in the center, plain or on a light band. Breadcrumbs can be shown above or below the title.

Option	Choices
Show the page title	On or off
Title alignment	Start or center
Title area style	Plain or light band
Breadcrumbs	On or off, above or below the title

On store pages the breadcrumbs show the WooCommerce trail. The breadcrumbs are only the visible trail; the theme prints no structured data for them.

Page Layout Options

Change the frame of one page without a new template.

Each page and post has Page Layout options, both in a box on the edit screen and in the Elementor page settings panel:

Header and Footer: show or hide.
Header style: transparent (full-width content only) or solid.
Page title: show or hide.
Content width: boxed or full width.
Content spacing: with or without top and bottom spacing.
On posts: the sidebar, the place of the post title and the featured image, or no featured image.

A full-width page with a hidden title and no spacing leaves the whole screen to Elementor.

Layout & Navigation

Set the width and small helpers once.

Container width. One width for the theme's content, header and footer.
Theme header and footer. They can be turned off when a plugin or Elementor draws them everywhere.
Back to top button. An optional button that steps aside for the phone menu and for plugin parts at the bottom of the screen.
Base styles. The theme's base styles can be turned off for projects that bring their own.

When the Vendix plugin's Header & Footer Builder or Elementor's Theme Builder provides a header or footer, the theme prints that layout in its own place instead of the theme header or footer.

A Practical Header Setup

Choose the site type, then decide whether the header should be sticky.
Turn on the transparent header only for pages that start with a full-width image.
Add the header button for the main action, such as a booking or contact page.
Fill the footer columns in Appearance → Widgets and check them on a phone.

Questions About Header, Footer & Page Title

Can I use the Vendix Header & Footer Builder instead?

Yes. Its layouts print in the theme's own header and footer places, so the theme header and footer give way where a layout is shown.

Why do empty footer columns not show?

A footer column is drawn only when it has widgets, so the footer never shows empty boxes.

Can one page have no header or title?

Yes. The Page Layout options of the page can hide the header, the footer and the page title.
