Home page sections

The home page sections, in order, with the name they have in Elementor’s Navigator and their CSS ID (the anchor used by one-page mode and by links such as /#term).

Section (Navigator name)CSS ID

Your first class#first-class
The week at the studio#week

Free taster class#taster
  • A course drawn as a value scale: The home page opens with the drawing term as ten boxes from paper white to charcoal, each box holding the week and what is taught.
  • Courses with length and places left: Course rows show the night, a strip with one box per session in the colour of the medium, the fee and how many places are left.
  • Timetable, kids and teens: The week at the studio day by day, Saturday classes for two age groups, term dates and a first-class guide with what to bring.
  • Fees and gift vouchers: Term fees, drop-in prices and a gift voucher panel that sends people straight to the booking form.
  • Free Elementor and a ready booking form: Every page is built with free Elementor widgets on Hello Elementor, with a 'Book a class' form made with the free WPForms Lite plugin. The font is bundled: no Google Fonts requests.

The demo import creates this main menu (Appearance → Menus):

  • Home
  • School → Tutors, The studio
  • Classes → Drawing, Painting (Watercolour, Oil painting, Acrylics), Kids and teens, Term dates and fees
  • Sketchbook
  • Contact

Header button: Book a taster class (link #taster), changed in Appearance → Customize → LT ArtClass options.

One-page mode

In every edition the menu can scroll to these sections: This term, Classes, Your first class, The week at the studio, Kids and teens, Fees and vouchers, Sketchbook, The studio, Free taster class. Free: Appearance → One-page import creates the one-page website with them. Pro: tick One-page mode on the home page in Appearance → Customize → LT ArtClass options. To change the labels or leave sections out, see One-page mode.

Used the old LT ArtClass onepage WordPress theme? It is not sold any more: version 2.0 is one theme for both. The Free edition imports the one-page website; Pro adds the full multi-page website.

Form

Pro: with WPForms Lite active, the demo import creates the form Book a class or a free taster on the Contact page. Fields: Your name (required), Email (required), Phone (optional), Class (required), How much have you drawn or painted?, Number of places, Anything we should know. Email subject: “Class booking request from the website”. After sending, visitors see: “Thank you. We will reply by email within two working days to confirm your place (sample).”

See Contact form for where messages go and how to change the fields.

Demo content to replace

Everything marked with one of these in the demo is sample content: names, numbers, prices and addresses that you replace with your own (or delete):

  • (sample)
  • Example prices
  • example.com
  • (555)
  • Northlight Art School
  • Foundry Yard
  • Springfield
  • Keep the value scale one box per session, lightest first; do not use it as decoration or for things that are not sessions.
  • Use cadmium yellow only as the tab behind charcoal text (places left), never as a text colour.
  • Keep headings in the Casual style and times, prices and dates in the plain (Linear) style.

Only publish facts that are true for your business: real prices, opening hours, reviews and qualifications. Pro Unlimited’s launch checker lists every sample marker left on the site.

Questions about LT ArtClass

Do I need Elementor Pro?

No. LT ArtClass uses only the free Elementor plugin and the free Hello Elementor theme. The header and footer are part of the theme, so you do not need Theme Builder.

Can I change the weeks of a course?

Yes. Each box of the value scale is a normal Elementor container with a week number and a heading: edit the text, or copy a box to add a week.

Will my site look like the demo?

Yes, with Pro: Appearance > Demo import creates every page, the colours, font, menu, header and footer. The demo photos are replaced by placeholders you swap for your own.

Does it work as a one-page site?

Yes, in every edition. Free imports the one-page website: the Home page sections on one scrolling page, with a menu that scrolls to them and highlights the current section. Pro imports the full multi-page website, and one-page mode is a switch in the Customizer (or the "One-page (scroll menu)" page template).

What is the difference between Free and Pro?

Free: theme + one-page website import (the Home page sections on one scrolling page with a scroll menu, imported in one click); the footer credit stays, and help comes from the AI assistant and the contact form. Pro: full multi-page website like the demo: all 14 pages, sample posts and one-click demo import, one-page mode too, credit removal (put your own copyright there), updates and ticket support. Pro Unlimited adds the AI kit.

I have the old LT ArtClass. Is this an update?

It is a new version 2.0 with a new design, built for free Elementor. Your current site keeps working; install 2.0 on a new site or a staging copy and import the demo there.

Also for Joomla

LT ArtClass also exists as a Joomla template: see the LT ArtClass Joomla docs.
