Introducing New Adaptive Design Library

We are pleased to introduce you to our new Adaptive Design Library, which is a fully customized design library to build out beautiful new pages fast.

There are two very special features in the new design library.

Adaptive Design Library

Unlike static template designs, this new design library fully adapts to your website’s exiting design. This gives you a pixel perfect preview of how it will look on your website.

And each section in the design library can further be customized with Color Styles pulled from your color palette. Simply choose one of the three color style options and insert it into your layout.

Customize With AI

Optionally you can customize the copy and images in the entire design library with AI.

This provides the perfect jump start when creating new pages.

To customize the copy and images, simply click on the button in the top right of the design library. The cost to customize the entire library is 5,000 credits, but you can also customize individual categories for 500 credits each.

To access the new Adaptive Design Library, you need to install the Starter Templates plugin. Soon we will bring it into the Spectra plugin that is used to build all Zip sites.

This marks an important milestone to our release of custom websites which will be based on this new Adaptive Design Library.

Introducing White Label Domains

We are pleased to introduce you to our latest feature: White Label Domains

Currently when you create a new website, the url will look like this:

https://juicy-fruit.zipwp.dev/

See the zipwp.dev at the end? This new feature allows you to white label the domain to a domain that is yours.

So if I were to go and register a new domain name for this purpose, for example rapidfastdesign.com, all new websites you create would look like this:

https://juicy-fruit.rapidfastdesign.com/

This is a perfect feature for agencies or freelancers that work with clients.

To enable the feature, go to the team management page, and enter the domain you have registered for this purpose.

We know you will love it.

New:

  • White Label Domain Mapping

Improvements:

  • Restore site from email
  • Ask confirmation while deleting a Site
  • Send email when site is deleted by user or by system
  • Updated WordPress, plugins & themes of newly created AI site
