Here Is My Wordpress Recommendation List... Wordpress Themes, Plugins, And Page Builders

[@darrelwilson]

Hey Party People! So for those of you who want to know what i thought about certain page builders or plugins or themes and what i think of them, here is a recommendation of builders, themes and plugins I prefer. BUT, let me know your favorite products you like below!

[@SlotShenanigans22]

I started with Divi after watching one of your videos. I luv luv luv it. I used it to build my own business website and now build for others. My life has changed forever. Thank you for intro videos. You are changing people’s lives.

Darrel, hi. Great video. Any idea to help me to make with DIVI, some similar like "library themes" with filters, not for selling, like SHOWCASE/PORTFOLIO (like www.elegantthemes.com/layouts/). Thank you

I have used 4 page builders and I found Elementor and Brizzy free versions work great for customizing. Divi is better if you don't want to deal with html.

Thanks Darrel for another super-informative vid. Using Siteground and Divi here so I have no complaints.

[@thesearemyhobbies]

You are my go-to Wordpress expert!

[@DirkDV]

Very nice list. I use one or more of your favorites per category myself. Astra, Elementor and WooCommerce being my own personal favorites. One thing though. You really have to take a look at SEOPress. This one always seems to be missing from your lists and I really can't figure out why. It's one, if not the best SEO plugins. (Free and/or Pro).

[@imranmanan7346]

Hi Darrel I thank you for all your vids, I'm new at this and you have helped me pick out good stuff and gave me ideas. I would like to suggest that you make a video on essential plugins or must have/install. For example security plugins/backups/ anti-spam and that sort of stuff and if you would recommend to install them. When they would be necessary if they are at all.

[@darXound]

Why is everyone getting so worked up about Oxygen? Although I use it for everything WP related, you have to remember, that people who build in wordpress, generally aren't Web Developers. WP allows average joe's to do it themselves, and designers to build sites without knowing code. That's the beauty of it. Oxygen is different, as it bridges the gap for people who like the freedom of coding from scratch, and who probably wouldn't have went near WP without it, like me. Because of this, most people who use wordpress, actually do hate it! I tried to make it a standard in my former agency for over a year, and everyone hated it, because why learn code when you can just stick some Divi theme up and get on with the next one. Everyone rejected it. So my 2 cents..... If you use and love Oxygen, good for you! If you're interested in learning more code and you want to focus on becoming a developer predominantly, Oxygen is definitely worth looking at. If you already do consider yourself an even moderately skilled developer, then Oxygen is an absolute no-brainer. If you're a designer first and foremost, or just churn out small sites for a small agency, or if you just run your own website, there are probably 50+ more suitable options out there for you.

I was doing the same for a couple of days (I mean searching for a better theme) and I also came across Solidad. But having read a few articles I've decided not to buy any theme and move with the default/Astra one by building my own site from the stretch.

I think you didn't mentioned oxygen, and what do you think about it?

[@jamieprescott100]

Oxygen is one of the best tools on the market. Due to it having no affiliate program, not many will promote it. No affiliate program = No party

[@RMSAnalyst]

@@jamieprescott100 Agreed

[@EvaLasta]

@@jamieprescott100 its trash. The other builders are way better especially the UI but what's even better is custom coding your own theme

[@jamieprescott100]

EvaLasta You can custom code anything with Oxygen. You don’t even need a theme...

[@RMSAnalyst]

@@EvaLasta Have you actually used it? Perhaps you can describe with details in what way Oxygen is "trash" as this is not only unhelpful, but smacks of a kind of ridiculous "war". Perhaps you don't understand that Oxygen is not a "page builder" but a "website builder". Perhaps you are confused as to its functionality that requires rather more than cut & paste or move & drop. It requires understanding a full range of languages such as HTML, CSS, Php, JavaScript, classes, CSS grid, Flex none of which are truly used with many page builders. I would be interested in your showing how O2 is "trash" as a website builder. You are entitled not to like it or use it, but to "trash" O2 without examples, is just another unpleasant personal "trashing" of something you might not know how to use. I might not like WP Bakery, but I would never insult its maker or the people who use it.

[@snarskistomas]

Ultimate Membership Pro is amazing!!!

[@jackywang818]

divi can add the button very easy but the issue is divi will miss the css loading if use the tiny the css with the check option, one of my website faced this issue then I changed to flatsome, it is very easy to use flatsome as woocommerce website. I bought the full life divi account, but I don't use divi for years...

[@tonyb736]

Hi Darrel really informative tutorials, thanks for taking the time to make and share such well polished videos. Hoping you may be able to suggest a builder/plugin suitable for building a Limo/Chauffeur site, that will have booking/quote forms/date pickers/time etc.... I am new to WP and have made the mistakes you mention, buying themes that I thought would look good and be nice they have all turned out to be rather difficult to do anything with as a beginner and either use WP Bakery (I agree with your comments WP Bakery is a nightmare to try and use) or they have been HTML themes which of course wont work with WP. - essentially I have wasted a few hundred dollars and would rather not waste any more money. Just want to get my site built and running - any suggestions on which are most suitable would be most welcome.

You mentioned Wix, Shopify, etc. and other paid builders (maybe Webflow, etc.). I know putting together these vids on YT take time so it may not be worth your time, but I would love to hear from someone like yourself who has been a developer for 10,000 years why it’s “fake news” to use those builders. I get asked all the time “why shouldn’t I just build it myself with ‘Webflow’ or whatever?” ... ugh. It’s like asking someone why they shouldn’t just go buy a hamburger at McD’s instead of doing a real home-grown BBQ at home with fresh meat. Still, hard to answer when all they think they want to do is drag and drop some images and push in some text - but we all know it is seldom as simple as that.
