Search on the web has gone far beyond simply going to search engines to find information. In order to dig deeper and find content more relevant to search queries, website visitors are increasingly searching through actual websites themselves for that right piece of content they're looking for. To take that a step further, it is possible to add filters to your search inputs so your website visitors can further specify the content they are looking for. This allows you to deliver a better web experience that provides the visitor with the content they are looking for at a much faster rate. In this tutorial, we will teach you how to add a category filter to your search input to provide more relevant search results to website visitors.

address-auto-complete

Improve the user-experience of your forms by adding auto-complete functionality to your address fields, powered by Google Maps.

load-more-button

Showcasing your content on the web is more essential than ever but there's so much content and only so much real estate on a web page before the viewer stops scrolling. Web designers and developers have recognized this behavior in website visitors and implement different techniques to display content in the most intuitive way while still providing the volume of content some visitors may require. Your blog may have 1,000 entries but you don't want to show all of them on a single page or it will take an extremely long time to load and cause an information overload that may even increase your bounce rates. In the case of these 1,000 entries developers would likely "lazy load" any entries over a certain integer. In our example, we don't have 1,000 entries so a simple "Load More" and some JavaScript will suffice.

google-translator

mega-menu

A mega menu is a drop down that is triggered by hovering over a link or defined area. This dropdown usually shows all options in one main, mega-panel and oftentimes groups related topics into categories. In this article, Solodev will show you how to add a mega menu to your website.

interactive-map

Maps are a great way to leverage your website to drive traffic to your doors. A majority of maps simply show the locations of a given entity as well as an address without any further context or interactivity. In our example, we've designed a map that displays locations you can learn more about by clicking on the location. Clicking on the location triggers a popup with further information related to that specific location. You can add any information you'd like to these popups that make the most sense for your business.

popup-video

When it comes to content, video is king. It is the most consumed content on the web. If you had to choose from a range of media types to get a message across, a video should always be your first consideration. Visual communication is the top tier form of getting your messaging to stick. While graphics and copy can make the difference between a website visit and a sale, video can go even further. Why not have the best of both worlds? Simply making your hero a video or designing your hero with a graphic overlayed with some copy is the typical approach to homepage hero sections. There is a way to have both and it involves Magnific Popup, a jQuery plugin that displays content when an HTML element is clicked. In our example, the hero image and overlaying copy is still prominent. Our Call-to-Action (CTA), however, is a button. This button does not simply take them to another page with more copy and graphics, it opens a popup video. In this scenario, you can maintain your hero image and overlaying text and provide the option for website visitors to view a video further describing your product or service.

First, the effect largely does not interfere with other design elements.

Furthermore, with the search form full screen you give clear focus for your end users.

Having a prominent slider is often key to implementing a visually exceptional design. It must, however, be balanced with the need to maintain your site's performance. Solodev shows how to lazy load images using built in Slick Slider functions.

full-width-sectional

Contemporary web design often blends fixed-width containers with full-width sectionals. By utilizing a full-width sectional, you can highlight specific content pieces, reinforced by an appropriate image that captures your audience's attention. Determining which content to place in a fixed-width container or a full-width sectional is mainly dependent on two things - the importance of the content and messaging as well as its supporting visual medium (graphic, video, icons, slider). Determining what content should be placed where should feel intuitive to you, simply align your content and messaging placement with its level of importance to your organizational goals.

Using the example in the tutorial below, you can have your hero text alternate to describe different aspects of your business. In this article, Solodev will show you how to add animated hero text to your website using jQuery.

In another, you want it filled out and to make sure it is valid and contains an @ symbol. What you don't see often is telephone number validation because it's difficult. Not anymore.
