After download the Groovy theme, you will find all the Groovy templates and modules on 
your HubSpot portal.
When creating a new website page or landing page, you can select "Groovy" to get a list of all 
available templates.
Ocean contains a variety of website and landing page templates that serve as a good starting 
point for creating well-designed converting inbound websites.
Visit the demo page to see all the sample pages and module configurations that we have created for you.
This documentation helps you get started with the Groovy Theme, as do the HubSpot documentation 
articles in case you're unfamiliar with the basics and usage of the HubSpot CMS.
To better understand the topic, this document also contains a reference guide to custom-coded 
Ocean modules.

IMPORTANT

We recommend that you set up a version child theme of the Groovy before you start setting 
up and building your site. This will help you or a third party to be able to change the code, extend it with
specific requirements or change styles that cannot be modified at the moment.
To create a child theme see the following HubSpot documentation: Creating a Child Theme.

 jQuery Versión 

To keep your website up to date and secure we have loaded the latest version of jQuery, 
all you need to do is disable the option of the subdomain with which you are going to use the
Groovy Theme.

To do so, just follow the steps in the video. 

 

To learn more about how themes work in the CMS and how you can start to creating, you can check out the Hubspot knowledge base:

Setting the theme styles

What you need to configure the theme with the style of your brand

theme_groovy

The theme settings allow you to control the global style such as colors, fonts, borders, as well as layout, performance, and some others aspects of styles for Ocean modules. 

You can access these settings through "Settings"> "Website"> "Themes"> "Groovy" or from the design tab of Hubspot´s page editor. 

edit_page_groovy

To make it easier to understand the settings, we have included a template called Home, there are the most used elements on a website. To access this and other templates, in the top menu select View in: Home.

In the same way, this option is useful for you to observe how the styles that you have changed are applied in the templates included in Groovy

To learn more about setting up a theme, see de Hubspot documentation:

color-palette

Your brand colors

In the Silky Theme, we include 2 color blocks, which are used in various templates both for fonts and some element of a module, buttons, among others and colors for the Dark and Light function that can be used in various custom modules as presets.

Brand colors

There are 3 colors that change and modify the appearance of the elements included in the Groovy Templates, remember that when you change the color scheme, you can see haw some other elements of other templates look like.

font

Fonts

Configure font families globally and specifically for each typeface.

Base Fonts

Globally you can configure a main source and a secondary source. 

font

You choose the fonts from the Google Fonts Library, which is natively integrated into de Hubspot CMS. 

Typography

To adjust each element used to represent text, you have the following option: More settings > Typography, where you can choose the font family established in your brand identity. 

typography

For better readability we have used the following tool: https://type-scale.com/ so, in case you need to change the sizes of the elements, you can do so, preserving the harmony in the design. 

In each of the elements you will be able to choose a different font, size and color, as well as 2 more options that will allow you to define the space between lines "line Height" , and the space between letters "Letter Spacing" 

body

When modifying anu setting, you can view it in any of the available templates. Try and see which one is better, you can always return to the original value stablished in the Theme

Styles

The Groovy Theme includes the option to add rounded edges from the global settings to certain elements included in the theme templates. 

corner

Note: some elements were omitted such as buttons, tables and forms, these elements have the option in their configuration.

Important: if you activate this option, the first section of any page that you create will not have this effect. 

After activating this option, simply add a background image to any section from the page editor. 

Structure

The structure of Functional takes into account two elements, which are the maximum size for elements for which full width and vertical spacing are not set. 

These two elements have pre-established values that we consider to be optimal, but if you still want another size, you can choose the "Custom" option in each these options. 

layout

header

Both, the header and footer of the Groovy Theme have styles that you can edit globally. 

The configuration is available for the global header: More settings> Website header, and for the Footer in More settings > Website Footer. 

headerfooter

In the global configuration of the theme, you can only change the appearance, for other settings ypu must go directly to the global module. 

 

In the global header, you must select the menu you want to display and if necessary adjust your logo. We recommend you upload your logo in a SVG format, that makes it have an excellent quality.

To create de menu and learn more, check out the Hubspot guide. 

 

The global footer in Groovy is created with drag and drop areas, so, yo can add more elements if you wish, be it logos, a subscription form, among other creative ideas.

The footer has a menu for legals issues, so, you should add only 2 or a maximum of 3 items.

Custom Modules

modules

Structure of the modules

The structure of the modules adapts to the drag and drop functionality of the HubSpot CMS.

The most incredible thing about the Hubspot CMS is the Web Page Builder, which allows content creator and designers to build pages in a very agile and uncomplicated way. 

In order to maximize the Hubspot CMS builder, we have created several custom modules which, when combined whit the default modules that exist in the CMS, you can easily create pages that help attract potential customers easily with pillar pages, resources pages, video page, among other options. 

All custom modules have two tabs, the content tab and the style tab.

Styles in modules

All custom modules included in Silky use this new option

The styles tab was only available in Hubspot custom modules, now this option is available for custom modules,  and for you, to bring an extraordinary experience we have separated the content from the style to give you more customization options, without this implying complexity.
