Although Elxis has many parameters to customize the layout and style of a page, sometimes this is not enough. There are cases we need customization beyond the standard options. This is why page generators introduced in Elxis 5.6. A Page generator is a custom block of code that generates the HTML of the page instead of the built-in component. This allows us to achieve 100% customization of the web page contents, layout and style. Page Generators are optional parts of a template. For now, page generators are available in component Content for Category pages, Articles, Tags page and the Archive page. On each category/article you can select (or not) a page generator (if available on your template). Category A may have a totally different style of category B, while category C might have the Elxis default style.]]> https://www.elxis.org/de/blog/page-generators-and-templates.html https://www.elxis.org/de/blog/page-generators-and-templates.html Fri, 22 Aug 2025 16:03:00 +0000 Release notes for Elxis 5.6 Oxylus

Elxis 5.5 Hermes has 2 factor authentication system built-in. Two-factor authentication (2FA), is a security process in which users provide two different authentication factors to verify themselves.

OTP is a 6-digits random number which is refreshed every time you try to login. Elxis calls this Verification code. The verification code can be send to you either via e-mail, or SMS. Please read this article before you enable 2FA.

At last, after a long time Elxis has a forum extension again. The new component is named Bubbles. You can install it in your Elxis powered site and have an integrated forum solution. Although Bubbles is brand new, it released as version 2.0, and not 1.0 as you may expect. This is because Bubbles 1.x was an old Elxis 2009.x series component. Bubbles 2.x is a brand new, modern application written from scratch especially for the Elxis 5.x platform. You can use it as a forum, as a FAQ tool, to provide support, as a communication gateway between your site members and visitors and for any other purpose you may find it useful.]]> https://www.elxis.org/de/blog/bubbles-forum.html https://www.elxis.org/de/blog/bubbles-forum.html Mon, 29 Nov 2021 17:09:00 +0000 Add custom CSS rules and javascript without modifying any file.
Since version 5.2 Elxis allows you to modify most extensions' CSS and javascript files directly from within the administration panel with the help of a powerful code editor from CodeMirror. However modifying extensions' files is something we don't recommend as after an update you will lose your changes. So, what we did is to introduce the user config files. You can add your custom CSS rules, or your javascript code, in these files and anything you put there will be preserved after an update.]]> https://www.elxis.org/de/blog/user-config-files.html https://www.elxis.org/de/blog/user-config-files.html Mon, 14 Jun 2021 17:05:00 +0000
