StudioPress is the real deal!

According to us, you can only create WordPress websites with the StudioPress Genesis Framework. It offers many advantages over standard WordPress themes. why?

Uniformity. That is the big advantage of a framework compared to a “normal” WordPress theme. A framework uses a number of standards. They facilitate the work of plugins, creators of themes and back-end developers. It is sufficient for them to be familiar with the framework to be able to make adjustments or build themes faster.

In other words, a framework is a solid basis. In the first place, these are the foundations on which developers can build themes. Furthermore, the framework guarantees better compatibility between a theme on the one hand and plugins on the other. Feel free to call it a code base that contains all the functions that need themes.

Imagine a security problem pops up in functionalities of multiple themes. If you do not use a framework, then you have ‘serious’ problems: you have to adjust every theme one by one. No, it is better to have a framework at such a moment. Then you only have to solve the security problem once, inside the framework, because all themes of StudioPress use the same basic functionalities.

There are many WordPress themes available, both free and paying. This makes it difficult to choose. The free themes can be found in the WordPress theme repository. A popular place to buy WordPress themes is themeforest.net. The quality varies greatly in both cases, mostly depending on price. Popular are themes that can be adjusted visually, such as visual composer, is what you should look for.
