Smart Grid

The YOOtheme Pro element that thinks it’s a Swiss Army knife and is mostly right about that. One element pulls from four content sources and eight social platforms, then styles, filters, sorts, favourites and plays it all on one beautifully cohesive grid.

Smart Grid

Ever wish your site could remember what each visitor loves? Smart Grid makes it happen. Every card it shows gets a heart and a 5-star rating - visitors save what they like with a tap, filter the page down to just their favourites in a click, and show you what's actually worth the time. Then fill those cards with anything: your Joomla articles, your ZOO items, hand-picked highlights, or live posts from eight social platforms. One drag-and-drop YOOtheme Pro element, one Joomla install, zero code - and easily the most epic grid you'll ever add to a page.

Upvote Overlord

Your visitors have opinions. Left unchecked, they scatter them across emails, DMs, and the void. Upvote Overlord summons them into one arena, ranks their demands by votes, and lets you rule the outcome. They beg for features. The crowd decides which are worthy. You ship, and you take the credit. Install it, and never wonder what your people want again, because they will tell you, in order, whether you asked or not.

This is the live demo slot. In the builder, drag the Smart Grid element from the A YOOzeCase Company group into this section and pick a content source. It renders the real interactive grid (favourites, tags, search, flip cards, inline players) right here.

Four content sources, zero excuses

Where would you like that data to come from?

Manual items

Click ADD ITEM, fill the fields, drag to order. Every field is per-item: image, title, two buttons, tags, media, spotlight schedule, flip content.

Joomla articles

Pick a category, set a limit, choose ordering. A YouTube or Spotify link inside an article auto-promotes that card to a video card, no extra clicks.

ZOO items

The full ZOO content app at your service. Live AJAX dropdowns of the real elements on your ZOO type. Survives ZOO 3.x, 4.x and locked-down shared hosting.

Social media

Eight platforms, one element. Live posts from whichever account you feature. Most are free; the one paid path uses Apify’s free tier.

Cards that actually pop

Cards with ideas above their station

Flip cards

Click or hover to rotate to a back face with title, body, image and CTA. Word count auto-sizes the text; auto-contrast picks the readable colour.

Star ratings

A 5-star widget on every card. For ZOO items the average and count write back to ZOO Number elements your ratings live in your CMS.

Spotlight items

Promote any item to a dedicated tier: bigger size, custom badges, animated borders, glow rings, drop shadows and date schedules.

Glass + adaptive

Default, frosted Glass over hero images, or Adaptive the card background samples its image’s dominant colour with contrasting text picked for you.

Favourites

Every card gets a heart. Logged-in visitors save to a per-user table and filter to just their favourites. Logged-out users get a friendly nudge.

Live search & tags

Type-as-you-type filtering across title, content, meta and tags, plus a filter chip for every unique tag. No reload, no round-trip.

Built like it should be

Built against the real shared-hosting hellscape

Most plugins look great in the demo and crumble on real hosting. This one shipped with receipts.

Self-healing tables

Every AJAX call runs CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS first because installer scripts silently fail on some shared hosts.

Three-tier HTTP fetch

Joomla HttpFactory → cURL → file_get_contents. We have seen HttpFactory return zero-byte bodies, and we will not gaslight you about it.

Stale-cache fallback

If an API blinks, you get the previously cached payload instead of an empty grid. Your visitors never see the outage.

Hardened by default

SSRF guard on every server fetch, CSRF-checked favourite & rating writes, TLS never silently downgraded. Independent review passed.

Diagnostic mode

Append ?sgdebug=1 to any URL for a full inspection comment: every source decision, cache hit and API call.

Speaks six languages

English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish and Italian visitor-facing dates localise themselves automatically.
