Where to Find the Visibility Options

  1. Open the Module Settings: Click the gear icon or the module itself to access the settings.

  2. Navigate to the Advanced Tab: Locate the Visibility option group.

Visibility Customization Settings

  1. Disable On:

    • Choose to hide the module on specific devices:

      • Phone

      • Tablet

      • Desktop

    • Check the box for any device where the module should be hidden.

  2. Horizontal Overflow:

    • Control how the module handles content that overflows its left and right edges:

      • Visible: Displays overflowing content outside the module.

      • Scroll: Adds a horizontal scroll bar for navigating the overflow.

      • Hidden: Hides the overflowing content.

      • Auto: Let the browser decide whether to display a scroll bar.

  3. Vertical Overflow:

    • Manage content that overflows the top and bottom edges of the module:

      • Visible: Displays overflowing content below the module.

      • Scroll: Adds a vertical scroll bar for navigating the overflow.

      • Hidden: Hides the overflowing content.

      • Auto: Let the browser decide whether to display a scroll bar.

Best Practices for Using Visibility Options

  • Device-Specific Content: Use the Disable On option to hide modules with large images or detailed content that might not display well on smaller screens.

  • Manage Overflow: Set overflow to Scroll for modules containing tables, text blocks, or images that might exceed the module's dimensions.

  • Test Responsiveness: Preview changes on different devices to ensure your settings enhance user experience without hiding critical content.
