Kiolezo Drag and drop Joomla template builder

Build the template of your website directly from Joomla! by simply drag and drop rows, columns, module positions, images and many other elements. Kiolezo is different from other builders because it's not a page builder, is a template builder, so you can create all parts of your template just by drag and drop.

All created templates can be used directly by Kiolezo, through the template specifically created and installed together with the component, to keep the drag and drop edit feature. Alternatively, templates can be exported in zip archive format and installed on any other Joomla based website, without the need of Kiolezo component to be installed.

System requirements
  • To install Kiolezo component and to be able to use it, the Joomla! version should be at least 3.9.0.
  • To install exported templates in zip format, the Joomla! version of the website where you want to install the template should be at least 3.9.0.
  • Linux hosting. Kiolezo is not compatible with Windows hosting.
  • To export templates as zip archives, your server should have "ZipArchive" PHP class installed. Otherwise the component will work, but you will not be able to export templates.
  • Kiolezo blank template should be installed to display Kiolezo layouts on frontend. Normally this template is installed or updated automatically during the installation process.

This is the lite version of Kiolezo, which allows you to use the product in some of its functionalities. Compared to the full version, this version does not allow to export editable layouts and stand-alone Joomla templates.

Export a Joomla template

Created templates can be exported in two ways:

  • .kiolezo files an editable layout can be exported. This can be imported into another website that uses Kiolezo component.
  • .zip files a stand-alone template can be exported. This can be installed on other Joomla web sites without using Kiolezo component.

During layout editing, you can use the keyboard shortcuts.
Save, UnDo, ReDo, Erase and many more commands are available through common keyboard shortcuts:

  • The keys combination CTRL + S allows you to save the current layout.
  • The keys combination CTRL + E allows you to save and close the current layout.
  • The keys combination CTRL + Z allows you to undo last action.
  • The keys combination CTRL + Y allows you to redo last action previously undone.
  • The keys combination CTRL + B allows you to open or close the sidebar.
  • The key ENTER lets you save settings within a popup.

What is included in Kiolezo

  • Kiolezo component, which is the main component to create layouts by drag and drop.
  • Kiolezo quick icons module, useful to have some handy shortcuts on the backend.
  • Kiolezo template*, which is the template needed to show created layouts on the frontend.

* Kiolezo template is not physically included in the installation package due of a restriction imposed by the JED (Joomla Extensions Directory). Kiolezo template will be automatically downloaded from our server and installed during the package installation process.
