Feature request - toggle bootstrap features #31

Open robwent opened 11 years ago

robwent commented 11 years ago

As you are using your own version of bootstrap rather than Joomla3.0's built in version; how about breaking it up in to parts and allowing users to only include the parts they want to use when they compile. IE if you don't have forms, remove the forms part.

I know this can be done in the less files with bootstrap master but many users might not be willing to touch the less files and could benefit from some toggles to turn some parts on and off to cut down on the stylesheet size.

We are discussing about implementing the bootstrap customize form (http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/customize.html) into T3 template manager. User can toggle bootstrap features then recompile to update css files.

That sounds awsome!

+1 from me for this.

+1 from me. I'd love to be able to setup my own initial Bootstrap settings that would be a starter to templates without all the border radius and gradients everywhere.

To take this a step further, it would be nice if we could have Bootstrap presets? For instance if you have the Customizer built in, you could save your settings somehow so you don't loose them, and then easily choose them for other sites. This should be something where the settings would be saved where when updating the T3 Plugin wouldn't kill your saved presets.

Yes! Show us more Bootstrap power! This kind of implementation rock J! world!

simbus82 commented 11 years ago

+1 me too! Could be nice to select "T3 bootstrap" of "J3 Bootstrap" or edit all of the options.

robwent commented 11 years ago

I have been thinking a bit more about this and I think the best way would be if the template configuration saved the main bootstrap file which could then be compiled using the existing less compiler. That way there should be no overhead on a production site but may cause some issues with development mode if all singular less files get loaded. Plus, updating......

How is this part all going? I was just about to suggest it to help reduce the load and size of T3 based websites.

I've been going in and ripping things out but a menu option system in the backend that allowed for it would save me and the team here a lot of time.

BTW the customisation link has been updated. http://getbootstrap.com/customize/
