We want to thank everyone who joined the webinar on January 16th from various locations around the world. Your enthusiasm and active participation, whether by supporting Brizy, using the tool, or asking insightful questions about its future, mean a lot to us.
If you haven't been able to join or watch the replay, below is the full webinar recording. Enjoy:
And here are the questions:
White Label & Enterprise
1. For White Label, will tutorial videos for clients come with Turnkey Project?
For Brizy Cloud WhiteLabel, we provide a Turnkey Project that is built with multiple pages and templates showcase. A demo for the site can be seen here.
2. Where we devs can create custom elements and add them in the Brizy elements list?
Any company subscribed to our Enterprise plans can build custom elements, templates, etc. via APIs and include these in the builder, which will only be available to their clients (and not to anyone subscribed in Brizy Cloud).
3. Is there an easy way to migrate from Elementor WP to Brizy Cloud?
Unfortunately, this isn’t possible due to the different architectures and how the two builders create content and structures. Additionally, maintaining a migration tool every time Elementor updates its builder would be incredibly challenging for our development team.
Brizy Cloud
1. Congrats for all the new features and all the best for 2025. What I would like to see is a thorough update to your Collections since this is currently not capable of creating proper web-sites for real estate, holiday rental or similar websites. With a proper Collection Setup you could easily beat competitors like Duda, Softr and others.
We’re excited to share that an update to Collections is coming very soon! It will be dynamically driven via Airtable sheets or Google Spreadsheets, making it much more powerful for creating dynamic websites and pages. The functionality is 90% finalized, so stay tuned for announcements!
2. It would be ideal to use a design with a position: fixed for a full-height image on the left that stays in place while only the text on the right scrolls.
This will be available later this year as we are working on the functionality already.
3. Definitely need the website cloning feature
Website cloning is already available via “Duplicate” functionality in our Cloud Dashboard or via Cloning link (accessible in the Project Settings, under General tab).
4. For Brizy Cloud the "Project Cloning" feature must be disabled for editors or designer roles. I believe that since it is a security function, it should only be accessible to Administrator roles. At this moment, if we invite someone to help us with a project as editor or designer, they could simply clone the entire project and "take away" all our work. I hope that this can be updated.
Yes, that makes sense! We’re working on a User Roles editor, which we plan to release soon. This will give you full control over the actions each team member or role can perform. Stay tuned!
5. Love the platform, but maybe it is time to add some backup functionality (one end user can use) - sure you can clone project , etc. but real backup or last X versions would be nice.
We’re actively working on adding user-accessible backups with versioning. Currently, backups are stored in our database for all websites, but they aren’t easily accessible for users to revert to previous versions. We’re planning to release this functionality by the end of the year.
6. When will there be a Search Option in Brizy?
We know many of you are excited about a Search element in Brizy Cloud. While it’s been “on hold” for some time due to the complexities of development, we want to assure you it’s still on our radar. Creating a fast and reliable search element requires significant changes and rewrites to how Brizy Cloud and its database work.
This means it can sidetrack dev teams or put other more important projects on-hold. We're planning to revisit this feature in 2025, and we’re hopeful we can find a solution that’s both efficient and achievable.
7. Any plans to speed up Brizy Cloud loading speeds. I missed the rest of the presentation.
Sometimes, the first load after a page update can take a bit longer because the caching system resets and sends the changes to the servers for compiling. However, the second load is much faster and almost instant. We're also working on improving that initial load with some clever optimizations.
8. When do you think the team: designers, content writers, editors, and everyone else will be able to work on the project simultaneously? A page or section gets locked for individuals while in use.
Technically we can not lock certain blocks inside an editing page so, unfortunately, this won't be possible anytime soon due to the way our global blocks function in Brizy. Imagine multiple people working on the same site across different pages. If one person makes a change to a global block in one page, it will affect the other pages where that block is used, potentially disrupting their work.
And if the person working on a different page saves their work, the old global block will be pushed again site-wide, because the page was loaded prior to the changes made by said colleague. This will surely confuse most team members working on the project.
9. Is a cookie banner for privacy policy, cookie policy, and terms and conditions planned in Brizy Cloud, or will it be necessary to use external scripts?
This isn’t something we have planned, as there are excellent alternatives available, both free and paid, like CookieBot, CookieYes, and Illow. These tools are highly effective and easy to set up. Building and maintaining a similar feature within Brizy doesn’t make much sense given the great options already out there.
10. Have you fixed absolute positioning (Anchor) for actual position?
Yes, this was fixed in the November update together with a bunch of other fixes and improvements.
AI Features & Builder
1. Will AI Website Builder functionality make it to the Wordpress Plugin at some point?
Yes! We’re excited to bring the current AI builder, along with some improvements we’re working on, to WordPress hopefully no later than the end of Q2 2025. Stay tuned!
2. Will we be able to fill page content on pages we create using AI without using the full AI page builder.
Texts inside the editor can already be generated with AI in the existing builder version, and AI generated images will also be available soon. As for blocks and other generated structures, these will be an option in the AI builder only.
3. It would be ideal to allow users to log in using third-party accounts such as Google, Facebook, Microsoft, etc., or at least provide integration with other applications.
We do have login with third-party accounts like Google and LinkedIn, to which we can easily add Facebook or Microsoft if it’s necessary.
E-commerce
1. We all want to know the e-commerce add-on price?
The pricing for Brizy Cloud Shops will be communicated in the following weeks prior to the official launch.
2. On Shopify, I just tested and all be great, but I think that Brizy needs to have for a page with “product list” the option for can “Search” products inside, this function give to Brizy Shopify a next level for people that need to search a product in the front end.
We need to investigate this, but usually in Shopify the tools like Search are not easily available for add-ons. They lock many of the core functionalities and are not accessible in APIs.
3. I recently told a colleague about Brizy for Shopify and they were very intrigued. How is that integration going?
We’re happy to hear that Brizy has been the hot topic lately! In case you missed it, we’re excited to share that Brizy for Shopify has been live for a while now. You can check it out here.
User Generated Ideas
1. Please we need integrations via Zapier
Zapier is already an integration in Brizy and the automations can be created in their interface.
2. It would be fantastic to have an integration with LaunchCarts in addition to Shopify! I bet the LaunchCart team would be eager to collaborate!
We will investigate a collaboration if more requests for this integration will be raised. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
3. Will there be an AI feature for ecommerce in the future? Like generating ecommerce websites based on existing Google My Business.
At the moment, we don’t have plans for an AI Builder for eCommerce in 2025, but we’re confident that in the coming years, AI and eCommerce will be a major focus. Thank you for the interest, we’ll definitely add this to the list of “ideas to explore”.
3. Folders and subfolders for Cloud Media Manager are necessary
We’ve explored this option multiple times in the past, but unfortunately, it’s not possible with our current codebase and infrastructure.
4. Dynamic Carousel Element for Posts, Assets, Blogs.(Choose Category) for Cloud
Thank you for bringing this to our attention! If it’s not already on our Feature Requests list, we’ll make sure to add it.
