Layouts
Most Flexible Framework Available
Because there are so many module positions available in so many different areas, the number of layouts you can create are limitless! An average of 90 positions are included in each design!
You can adjust the width of any module contained in any module row or set it to automatic width. This allows for 60/40, 30/30/40, etc row widths. Vertex also includes a switch between fluid and fixed layouts so if you prefer fluid you can easily switch to this layout. Lastly, we've designed the articles to load before the left and right columns for SEO optimization. They are repositioned with CSS so visually you see no difference in layout.
- Fixed pixels or Fluid percent of screen width
- Average of 90 module positions
- Custom module widths, 60/40, 30/30/40, etc
