Anyone using the Swift template
a) willing to show their site so we can see variations in its implementation and what you can do with it?
b) have any comments on it and things to watch out for beyond what Sellerdeck has said?

Hi,
I'm running my sports trophy websites on the swift template.
The first one I changed was my marathon medals website but I changed it back to V18 when I had problems with the loqate address service.
I have the swift template running on my golf trophies and football trophies websites and have just turned the generic sports trophy website into swift too.
None of my suppliers are currently sending out multiple images of products so I have to make them myself which is a great way to keep ahead of the competition.
There does seem to be a ton more code and its not cleanly done with large increases on the js and css but that's happening everywhere.
I would like to take advantage of the description tags more but this seems to be a "paid for" option.

Nice one Goz

The main image on the home screen doesn't seem to scale properly with screen size. It looks like the vertical height is fixed and the width scales which means it looks vertically tall and thin on a mobile. Is that a Swift bug or an accidental "enhancement" ?

I'm guessing it's a Swift thing.... I've not played in that area. I've noticed it does it with images in the checkout too. I'll have a look. Thanks for pointing it out Paul (btw - I need to place an order for DVDs for Canal Shop... I've run out of a few).

Hi Lee,

That looks great!

I really like the way you've added in the reviews on the home page and the stars on the product page. The quantity price break and specification information is also really well presented.

I've checked https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/ and looks like you could improve the speed with a few tweaks - the main one being image sizes. We've created a page speed white paper, not quite ready for public release, but i'll email you a copy - hopefully that can give you some pointers.

Would you be happy for us to use your site as an example of a self built Swift website?

Thanks, Josh

Thanks Josh, I have got a lot to do on pagespeed, some is completely over my head, thanks for the info though, very much appreciated.

I'm more than happy for you to use the site as an example, thanks very much!
