Super Flexible Design
Flex is a powerful Joomla template compatible with Joomla 5 as well as Joomla 4. Its basic layout is very flexible thus can be used in creating any type of site be it a blog, portfolio or a web store. This is a clean and mobile friendly template and also comes equipped with a layout page builder and drag and drop features hence creating amazing websites do not require much skills.
Ease of Use
What makes Flex one of the best Joomla page templates is the integration of the drag and drop layout building ability together with the SP Page Builder Pro. This feature allows users to come up with sophisticated layouts easily. Customization is easy and intuitive, with more than 72 addons available including useful carousels, sliders, galleries, etc. This template has also added four brand new addons, the slideshow, form designer, image layouts, and articles scroller making it more functional and engaging.
Responsive and Attractive
Flex will provide clients with a responsive web design which will enable them to view your site optimally as per the device in use. Seven homepage templates are available with prominent features such as full window background and one page layouts. The template supports multicolor gradients to help you make beautiful designs with ease as you can incorporate gradient backgrounds smoothly.
In E-commerce Ready, an example of niche marketplaces would be the global B2B marketplace with vertical specialization built upon VirtueMart 4.2.12 that allows you to create an online store within your Joomla site. Supports several products and categories as well as several shipping and payment methods including Ajax off-canvas cart and one step check out. These are very helpful in running a web based shop with utmost efficiency.
In Advanced Features, we would like to note other advanced features of Flex that we have not mentioned above including multiple headers layout images with lazy loading header and mega menu builder. The most dominating features of the template are RTL support enabling usage of the template on websites in Hebrew, Arabic and other languages which support RTL text. The template offers an unlimited range of color options, a retina-ready interface and developers coded the files in HTML5, CSS3 and Less which are all up to date and Butter.
Finally, although users seem to be very passive, to enhance the concept of intertwining elements in designing websites and applications, Flex allows to use some interactive elements like parallax scrolling, sticky headers, AcyMailing integration, etc. It comprises SP Cookie Consent thus complying with GDPR, Social icon with Shared Social functionalities and built in Social Comments. These assist in improving user comprehension of the site and the privacy issues addressed.
Customizable and Well-Documented
Flex provides a high level of customization with features such as custom code fields for CSS, JS, meta tags etc. It also describes hovering instructions in order for the users to make the configuration and use of the template simple and effective. Users can enjoy the benefit of page title option other than the default optional page title, customized coming soon, customized 404 page and a custom offline page.
Conclusion
All in all, we can say that Flex is one more very customizable and functional template for Joomla, which can be used on pretty much any website. Its easy to use drag and drop page builder, plenty of modification possibilities and all advanced functions attract both ordinary users and skilled web masters. It does not matter if it is a personal blog creation, a portfolio website or an internet store, we have the choices and the adaptiveness of Flex have the requirements of the users.
This is the most complete template for Joomla; it is very flexible and customizable. I have been able to achieve all that I require with relative ease. Any support queries I had were promptly responded to and resolved. Will definitely use again for future projects. The real value is in the support you receive, and this vendor provides FANATICAL SUPPORT – we were really impressed. We purchased this template a few months ago and love it. It has so many options, a beautiful design, and Aplikko offers the best service. Every question we have is answered within 24 hours, with detailed answers and screenshots. Highly recommended!
I have been a loyal user of this product for quite some time, but I am compelled to express my disappointment due to the complete lack of updates in recent months. Despite its initial promise, the product has stagnated, leaving users like myself dealing with outdated features. The absence of regular updates is not only frustrating but also indicates a lack of commitment to improvement and customer satisfaction. The author has disappeared, doesn’t reply to email, and Envato refuses to contact the author and find out the status of the project. This negligence has compelled me to reconsider my continued use of this product and to look for alternatives that offer ongoing support and development.
Update 3.9.9 with problems, the tabs produce error and the site is not working.
The template is excellent, very clean and beautiful. They took a long time to pass it to Joomla 4, I had to change the template but quickly had to go back to Flex because of the quality of its design.
The template is nice, but when I upgraded to 4.22 I got a 500 error and my logo showed up 3 times. Sent a support ticket to the author.
As a web developer with 22 years experience and a coder with 40+ years, the template is ok at best. Most of the heavy lifting is done with Joomshaper Page Builder. The free download template from Joomshaper, Helix, seems to be the same template layout as this one with a few modifications. The page builder is pro but you can’t access the templates live, they are included as extra files to import. The documentation also mentions not to update SP Pagebuilder via Joomla as it will overwrite the “pro” version with the “free” version. The layer slider is for Joomla 3 only. Acymailer is the free version. Going to scrap this, eat the cost and move forward.
It is no longer supported for updates. Template is currently not usable. Money down the drain.
Best Joomla template! If I could, I would give 5 stars for Design Quality, Flexibility, Documentation Quality, Feature Availability, Update Speed & Quality (except for the last 11 months, that was poor service) and not only for Customizability. Give your customers the promised updated versions for J4 & 5 sooner than later in the same quality and update speed you did until the end of last year.
Support seems dead – no replies. Does anybody have a recommendation for an alternative template?
It really pains me to leave a bad review for this template. It was (and still is) a great template, incredibly versatile, and the support used to be absolutely stellar. The developer seems to have abandoned support for the template – emails go unanswered and support packages just expire. The main issue is migrating the template from Joomla 3 to Joomla 4. There are seemingly unresolvable issues with smart search, 404 pages, and the Ajax latest article module. With no support, I have resorted to rebuilding huge sites on a fresh Joomla 4 install of the template (thankfully the Joomla 4 version works fine). I really hope the developer is OK, and overcomes whatever it is that has caused him to withdraw. Then I’ll be happy to remove this review.
Very nice template for Joomla 3.10.X. The support was very fast and nice at all!
I’ve been a web-dev and media artist since ’97. Aplikko’s template is a venerable “Swiss Army Knife”. You can quickly deploy it in a multitude of ways and no matter how you cut a project it looks great — aesthetically, and in terms of logical pathways. I hope the developer does invest the time in porting this upward into Joomla 4. Great work Aplikko!
Really great product and the support has been wonderful. Everything has a learning curve but this is an out-of-the-box template with a lot of addons. This template does that, it is great and I recommend it.
This is the best template for Joomla in the market. I have been using it for almost 5 years. It’s a high-quality template with the best documentation, clean code, and modern design. The support is one of the kindest people you will ever come across. I recommend this template to any Joomla website creator.
Great and awesome flexible template. Everything is possible with FLEX.
