Introduction

A novice-friendly and minimalist RapidWeaver theme, perfect for creating a web portfolio showcasing creative work. Made for RapidWeaver 8 and above, Tungsten has various colour, style and sizing options to accomplish all the basics you could probably want. You can either use Tungsten with its default "light on dark" colour scheme, or select 'Light Style' from the theme styles to instantly revert the colour scheme.

Includes Bootstrap and Font Awesome

ThemeFlood hosts professional-quality RapidWeaver themes. Despite Tungsten being offered as a free theme, you are still entitled to a theme that includes both Bootstrap and the free collection of Font Awesome Icons. Bootstrap is the most popular front-end web development framework that far-exceeds others like Foundation. And Font Awesome has established itself as one of the most popular icon libraries used by web designers. With both of these powerful libraries already built into the theme for you, you can forego any complicated setup or requirement to buy extra addons. See the ThemeFlood knowledge base for details on how to use both.

Navigation

Tungsten has a block navigation layout. Page links are shown within a lefthand sidebar. If you have subpages, these are shown within indented lists. This simplistic navigation system makes your website easier for people to navigate. On mobile devices, the page links toggle open and close. More information about using ExtraContent can be found in the knowledge base.

Colour pickers

Within the theme style settings, you'll see that Tungsten has over 15 colour pickers. These let you customise the colour scheme of practically everything shown on the webpage. All colour pickers support opacity too, if you need to tone-down particular colours or offset them against something else. Tungsten is a fun theme to build with.

Style settings

We make it much easier for you to customise common parts of the theme, like the mobile breakpoint, font size, line height and the display of different page elements. All these settings are quick to directly access in the theme style settings. A choice of number boxes and checkboxes are available for you to use.

Customising text strings

If you need to, here are some CSS code snippets to help you customise different text strings used by the theme:

nav #mobile_menu_toggle:before {
content: '';
}

nav.menu_open #mobile_menu_toggle:before {
content: '';
}

nav #mobile_menu_toggle:after {
content: 'Website Links & Contact';
}

Drag-and-drop banners

Like using dragged and dropped banners in RapidWeaver? Tungsten supports these banners too! Simply provide your banner images in the normal way. Tungsten effortlessly embeds them into the top of your webpage. Zero complicated code or configuration is needed. Enjoy the benefits of adding bespoke banner images in your web designs.
