Which page builder to use with GP
7 replies · Started by Mohit on June 9, 2018
Hi guys, Elementor is downright annoying( and has a big learning curve) and beaver builder is too expensive. which other page builder do you recommend? I am more focused on speed.
Thanks,
Saurabh
I personally don't have a recommendation for a page builder. It varies upon requirement and how the UI/UX suits a persons needs. You have however dismissed the two page builders most frequently used with GP.
What are you're intentions? Are you building a single site for yourself? Or are you are providing design / agency services?
I am building for a client of mine. So that makes me an agency. I have earlier used a multipurpose theme and visual composer. I found visual composer much easier and less buggy than elementor. I basically imported a demo and made changes.
This time I wanted to go with light weight theme(GP) and better builder(elementor). I thought I should build faster and better site for my client. Though it'd take longer.
My css, html skills are average. That's why I go with a page builder. However I have realized I should improve them.
OK - i see we have two topics going that have sort of merged. Let's keep them to this one.
So i would recommend the GP Sites Library:
https://generatepress.com/site-library/
If you want to expand what can be done without a page builder and following your other example (immigration site) then Catalyst by Zephyr Studios may be a good place to start.
There are also BB and Elementor sites to check out
Which elementor demo would be a good alternative to Catalyst by Zephyr Studios. Thanks
Aspire by Flix Frame has a similar landing page layout and the designer has added some extra value to the GP Blog page and posts. I think the simple switches would be colors and images.
Thank you for your advice; you solved a lot of my problems :)
Glad i could be of help
