GeneratePress Review: A Quick Introduction
GeneratePress is a multipurpose WordPress theme, which means that you can adapt it to any website niche.
According to WordPress.org, GeneratePress is active on over 100,000 sites and has also managed to maintain an incredible 5-star rating on over 692 reviews.
The core GeneratePress theme is 100% free. And then there’s also a GeneratePress Premium version. GeneratePress Premium is technically a plugin that you install alongside the free theme. It extends the theme with even more functionality.
Why I migrated to GeneratePress?
The mobile-first update by Google is the reason I made the change from my previous theme i.e FocusBlog to GeneratePress.
I wouldn’t tell that my previous theme was not mobile-friendly, but there was a room for improvement particularly when used along with page builder plugins.
Added to that, the FocusBlog was lacking in powerful customization features that GeneratePress offers you.
When I first migrated to the new GeneratePress theme, the customization of the design to reflect my brand was one of the challenging tasks.
So, I bought GeneratePress Premium as it comes with dozens of modules for customizing every aspect of the theme. Tweaking the new GeneratePress theme to match my brand turned out to be easier than I thought due to the robust customization options.
GeneratePress is a free theme, but the free version comes with limited customization options. However if you are comfortable with CSS you can go ahead. Although I have some CSS knowledge, I decided to go with the premium version and chose a cleaner way of customizing the stuff.
Here are some of the key areas where GeneratePress excels:
