A) Getting Started
PAWS is a clean, modern, and fully responsive HTML Template. it is designed for Pet Care and Animal Shelter. PAWS Template’s uniqueness is due to its amazingly beautiful designs and easy to use Website template solution that maximizes user satisfaction. It is built using bootstrap 5.3 framework, works totally responsive, easy to customise, well commented codes and seo friendly
This template made with Bootstrap, using HTML5, CSS3, JS and jQuery.
Get Yourself a Code Editor
Yes, it’s completely possible to edit HTML in Notepad or a similar program, but things will go much more smoothly for you if you use a proper code editing app. One of the main reasons is you’ll get colored highlighting of your code, as you’ll see shortly, which will make it much easier to read and edit.
I recommend Visual Studio Code, which you can download here: https://code.visualstudio.com/download
Download the template main files from Themeforest
- First, you need to download the template files from your Themeforest account. Navigate to your Downloads tab on Themeforest.
- Find the templates.
- Click the Download button,
- and then click "All Files and documentation".
Most HTML templates will come in a ZIP file - if so, go ahead and extract yours now. Then look around inside the template’s folders until you find the “index.html” or “index.htm” file.
In our example template the “index.html” file is found in the “HTML” directory.
B) HTML Structure
<!-- Header --> <div class="border-bottom bg-white sticky-top"> ... </div> <!-- Navbar Section --> <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg font-2"> ... </nav> <!-- Banner --> <div class="div pt-lg-0"> ... </div> <!-- About --> <div class="section pb-0 bg-light-color"> ... </div> <!-- Services --> <div class="section"> ... </div> <!-- Testimonials --> <div class="section"> ... </div> <!-- Pet Adopt --> <div class="section bg-light-color position-relative"> ... </div> <!-- Faq --> <div class="section position-relative"> ... </div> <!-- Logo Partners --> <div class="py-5 bg-light-color"> ... </div> <!-- Blog News --> <div class="div"> ... </div> <!-- Footer --> <footer> <div class="section pb-0 overflow-visible mt-5 position-relative" style="margin-bottom: -6.5rem; z-index: 2;"> ... </div> <div class="section pb-0 bg-light-color"> ... </div> </footer>
If you would like to edit the color, font, or style of any elements in one of these columns, you would do the following:
:root {
--light-color: #fbfbfb;
--secondary-color: #21282b;
--text-color: #3a3a3a;
--gray-color: #8b8b8b;
--accent-color: #d9b7b0;
--accent-color-2: #a66658;
--accent-green: #aabfb5;
--accent-green-2 : #4f5948;
--font-1: "Caveat Brush", cursive;
--font-2: "Quicksand", sans-serif;
}
If you find that your new style is not overriding, it is most likely because of a specificity problem. Scroll down in your CSS file and make sure that there isn't a similar style that has more weight.
.text-gray {color: #somecolor;}
So, to ensure that your new styles are applied, make sure that they carry enough "weight" and that there isn't a style lower in the CSS file that is being applied after yours.
C) CSS Files and Structure
Open the style.css file form the root folder and search h1 until you find the color property in the
file. It looks line this:
h1 {
font-size: 100px;
}
h2 {
font-size: 72px;
}
h3 {
font-size: 50px
}
Change the color with the one you want and hit save. If you want to change only the h1 color, you have
to separate the h1 and give it another color. The css should look like this.
h1{
color: #12aaeb;
font-size: 40px;
line-height: normal; }
Now, lets say we wanted h1 to poin to http://google.com. At this point the h1 looks like this:<h1>Shortcodes: Typography & paragraph styles</h1>
To make it point to a specific URL the h1 must look like this:
<h1><a href="http://www.google.com">Shortcodes: Typography & paragraph styles</a></h1>
You can make changes to the css to any elements. You just need to know the name of the element or div either by using FireBug or by opening the HTML and then search for that element in the css. Piece of cake!
Social Icons
To add a link to your social icon paste the necessary URL into the <a href=> tag. See the example below:
<a href="https://www.facebook.com" class="social-item">< class="fa-brands fa-facebook-f"></i></a>
D) JavaScript
This template imports different js files for the different sliders, lightboxes and interactive tabs from the homeplage and the rest of the pages. All the js is built around JQuery. What follows are some examples where jQuery was used:
Submit Form
$(function () {
'use strict';
// Retrieve all the forms that we want to apply Bootstrap custom validation styles.
const forms = $('.needs-validation');
// Loop through the forms and prevent submission.
forms.on('submit', function (event) {
const form = $(this);
var actionInput = $(this).find("input[name='action']");
if (!form[0].checkValidity()) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
} else {
event.preventDefault();
$('.submit_form').html('Sending...');
$('.submit_comment').html('Sending...');
$('.submit_appointment').html('Sending...');
const toast = new bootstrap.Toast($('.success_msg')[0]);
const errtoast = new bootstrap.Toast($('.error_msg')[0]);
var formData = forms.serialize();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "php/form_process.php",
data: formData,
success: function (response) {
if (response == 'success') {
if (actionInput.length > 0) {
if (actionInput.val() == 'appointment') {
$('.submit_appointment').html('Make Appointment');
const toast_appointment = new bootstrap.Toast($('.success_msg_appointment')[0]);
toast_appointment.show();
} else if (actionInput.val() == 'comment') {
$('.submit_comment').html('Post Comment');
const toast_comment = new bootstrap.Toast($('.success_msg_comment')[0]);
toast_comment.show();
}
} else {
toast.show()
$('.submit_form').html('Send Message');
}
} else {
errtoast.show()
console.log('errorrrrrr')
$('.submit_form').html('Send Message');
$('.submit_comment').html('Post Comment');
$('.submit_appointment').html('Make Appointment');
}
}
});
}
form.addClass('was-validated');
});
});
