    Hi,

    This is a question to somebody, who has obtained wisdom and mastered the sorcery of Enfold and Avia Building Framework.

    The Story

    We needed a nice and flexible template for a content oriented website that described our products in photos, videos and texts. Lots of landing pages. Enfold seemed like a perfect candidate. And I loved it.

    However, right now, we understand that we may require some changes in the way the website looks.
    For example, we need a 3 level menu system. Enfold sorts that out via an AWESOME mega menu, but we cannot do it that way.
    You get an idea what we need from this picture.

    The structure is similar to a famous fruit company website.
    And we really like the way how Avia Layout Builder works, because we will have a lot of content to put online and ALB is a perfect tool.
    The problem is, that Enfold doesn’t look the way we want.
    So the change is coming Mr. Wayne.

    The Dilemma

    Basically, we want to prepare a set of building blocks and then build our website like one does using Avia Layout Builder.
    And we are not sure what path we should choose.
    1. Adapt Enfold. Try to decompose Avia Layout Builder and Enfold and adapt to our needs.
    2. Find something alike. Find a WP component or anything that would allow us to do similar to ALB and make our own template.
    3. Forget about it and just make our own template without awesome page builder.

    What would you do, a wise sorcerer?

    Hey!

    I would suggest you to give Enfold a try. It is one of the most flexible WordPress themes available and with the help of a freelance developer, you can make your website look and function the way you want. And if you use an existing theme, it would be faster and cheaper to finish your project. That is what i would do. You can request quote here or find a freelance developer from https://codeable.io/

    Cheers!

    Thanks for the reference, Yigit. I will try Werkpress.
    I’ve looked through the source of the theme and it did look doable to me.
    The admin panel looks super flexible as ALB.

    But on the other hand, I’ve seen lots of dependencies with css etc., in the source
    so I had doubts weather such a change would be possible at all.

    Thank you so much for you input.
