Jason H. harbored a successful online course on Kajabi with a custom product template. As his content and global audience grew, he identified critical areas for improvement, particularly within individual lesson pages.
His objective was multifaceted:
To significantly enhance content presentation, visual impact, and overall user experience.
To overcome the restrictive default max-width limitation constraining written content.
To reconfigure the layout and order of content sections to optimize learning flow.
To maximize the visibility and prominence of engaging video lessons.
The project's ultimate scope was clear: to precisely implement these custom aesthetic and functional adjustments directly within his existing Kajabi course template, creating a more immersive, intuitive, and effective learning environment. This customization was not just about aesthetics but about improving pedagogical effectiveness.
The Challenge & Our Role
The core challenge was executing precise, highly customized modifications to an existing Kajabi product template without disrupting functionality, responsive design, or brand integrity.
Jason's specific requests included:
Widening the main content area for better readability.
Making the embedded video player substantially larger for enhanced viewing.
These requirements necessitated a deep understanding of Kajabi's underlying Liquid templating language and advanced CSS techniques. My role was comprehensive:
Thorough forensic analysis of his current template's code structure.
Meticulously identifying exact code sections controlling specific elements.
Implementing all requested custom adjustments with surgical precision.
This demanded technical prowess and meticulous attention to detail to ensure seamless integration, harmony with existing design language, and full responsiveness across all devices.
The Process
The process commenced with an in-depth and highly detailed consultation with Jason, where he articulated his desired changes with exceptional clarity, supported by illustrative Loom videos and comprehensive screen recordings. This provided a crystal-clear understanding of his pedagogical vision and technical requirements.
Following this, I meticulously reviewed his live Kajabi website and the underlying course template code to identify exact lines for modification. My technical approach involved:
Carefully editing the custom Liquid and CSS code.
Strategically overriding the default Kajabi styling applied to the product page.
Widening the main content area by adjusting the maximum width property of container elements, targeting specific classes or IDs.
Rearranging sections by manipulating their logical order within the template's source code, moving blocks of Liquid code.
Expanding the video player by modifying its dimensions with custom CSS rules to the video wrapper or iframe.
Ensuring changes scaled appropriately and maintained responsiveness across all device breakpoints using flexible units (percentages, viewport units) and media queries.
The Build & Outcome
I successfully implemented every single one of Jason's requested custom tweaks and enhancements, transforming the student experience:
The main content area was significantly widened, providing a more expansive, visually engaging, and readable experience.
Various sections on the lesson page (resource downloads, text descriptions, comment sections) were strategically reordered to align with his preferred instructional flow, enhancing logical progression and intuitive learning.
The embedded video player was substantially enlarged, making primary video content undeniably prominent and significantly more engaging.
These precisely executed custom modifications dramatically improved both the aesthetic appeal and the functional aspects and usability of his online course. The result was a significantly refined and professional presentation of his course content, leading to a much-improved and highly appreciated user experience, with Jason expressing immense satisfaction and relief.
