Thank you! Really like your site :)
I made a couple more sites:
Local waffle cafe:
vohvelihuone.fi
Local painter:
pauliinakanniainen.fi
Thank you again Tom!
Beautiful! Love them :)
First off, I want to thank Tom for his excellent work with GeneratePress.
I was running the Extra theme (by ElegantThemes) on my site for the last year, but was getting frustrated by how much bloat it came with, so I started looking around.
I found Elementor and GeneratePress, and the combination allowed me to not only create a better version of my site, but a leaner, cleaner, and blazingly fast version, too!
My current speed scores are: 97/100 Mobile and 99/100 Desktop using PageSpeed Insights and 97 on Pingdom (page size 472kb, load time 567ms (PROOF).
Thanks again, Tom!
Hi Tom. Please showcase http://www.bohemianbuddhist.com. I built it for my wife using GP Premium along with the WP plugin Elementor Pro. I really love the design & function the combo gives me, and much more importantly, so do our site visitors. They transpose that love over to Renee's jewelry, which was our goal.
I couldn't recommend GP Premium enough.

Thank you both for sharing! Love your sites (and speed!) :)
Cool. I'm just a starting webdesigner and if you guys have some tips or tricks for me, (except for paid plugins cus i can look them up myself:P) it would be realy awesome!
At the moment im implenting the GP Mega Menu but i dont know how to CSS the code to make it float right. I know its a realy simple code but yeah... im a starter..
I wanted to ask it in another topic but lets show my FIRST WEBSITE that need improvements bigtime!
Feel Free to CRITICIZE! https://www.thenaturallife.nl
Just know this is just a learning project so i would love some tips^^
Looks good! Like the full width style.
The only thing I would adjust is this custom CSS:
.masonry-container > article {
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
Might be good to add a little breathing room between posts :)
Like your site [Rasp And Rivet] but the Amazon buy button appears very inconspicuous and I almost missed it. You might be better off putting it in the body of each review.
I also like the design of the Read More and About Us buttons. How did you create the transparent look of the buttons?
Hi David,
Thanks for your feedback. Will shove the Amazon button elsewhere :)
The Read More button isn't really transparent. Here's the CSS for it:
.more_link {
-webkit-border-radius: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
background: #fff;
border: 1px solid #F34213;
border-radius: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
color: #F34213!important;
display: inline-block;
font-family: 'Quicksand', sans-serif;
font-weight: 600;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-top: -20px!important;
padding: 10px 20px;
text-decoration: none!important
}
.more_link:hover {
background: #F34213;
color: #fff!important;
text-decoration: none
}
You'll notice some important statements there. Apparently that's sacrilegious. It makes the button work :)
Looks great! :)
Hi Tom, here's a site I did earlier this year - https://clearfocus.consulting
Beautiful, really like it :)
Hey, Tom, I'm new to GeneratePress. I very much dig it. I'm sort of a convert from the Genesis Framework, mainly because of your extremely user-focused and cleanly styled approach. It's reflected not only in GP's design (e.g., the awesome Customizer) but also in your responses on this thread. Kudos.
I'm not done with this site yet (much content to add), but now that I have the style & layout nearly done, I'll let you have a peek. I teach classes for the Basic Web Certificate at a 2-year college in Madison, WI. This site targets those students. I hope to get a book deal with it. Plan B is to self-publish and use it as a text. Any suggestions for improvement are welcome.
Cheers!
