why is it blocked in default blacklist, and what is it different from Elementor
July 6, 2023 at 9:22 am #6501JasonGuestJuly 6, 2023 at 9:23 am #6502GeorgeGuestAs I recall from seeing it a few years ago, it’s a way to pretty much convert your WordPress site to a fully javascript site like Ghost or something. But I had a few clients using it who had non-stop problems and conflicts.
July 6, 2023 at 9:24 am #6503AshleyGuestThey also claim (recently?) to tightly integrate Advanced Custom Fields plugin. But just FYI Oxygen is not free / open source.
July 6, 2023 at 9:26 am #6505MeganGuestwhat is Ghost?
July 6, 2023 at 9:27 am #6506RuthGuestGhost is a CMS sort of like WordPress. They tried to recreate WordPress (allegedly) but using a JS framework instead of PHP, but it’s turned into more of a hosted service than an open source community over the years, for better or worse.
July 6, 2023 at 9:28 am #6507StephanieGuestyah idk why the Oxygen guys didn’t just join up with the Ghost project or something. Oxygen seems to hate the way WordPress functions and tries to overwrite it with their own JS functions, instead of playing nice with the native core PHP features IMO
July 6, 2023 at 9:31 am #6508KatherineGuestIf you love JS but are forced to work with WordPress, you might love Oxygen Builder. For any normal WordPress users, it will likely cause confusion.
July 6, 2023 at 9:32 am #6509MaryGuestyah idk why the Oxygen guys didn’t just join up with the Ghost project
I think you guys answered your own question lol
Ghost is more like a private company now than a software project
July 6, 2023 at 10:26 am #6515AngelaGuestlots of Reddit anons using Bricks builder instead now–
How do people feel about Oxygen Builder now?
byu/Spaaze inWordPressJuly 6, 2023 at 10:31 am #6516HannahGuesttldr lots of rumors that Oxygen will be abandoned soon, since the dev is launching a new page builder instead called Breakdance.
July 6, 2023 at 10:35 am #6517ThomasGuestI guess LittleBizzy was right 🤷
July 6, 2023 at 10:37 am #6518TylerGuestjust came here to say Elementor is bloated af and no better than Oxygen if you are looking for lightweight WordPress designs and easy to maintain!
July 6, 2023 at 10:39 am #6519JamesGuestanother interesting thread
Oxygen: Took the dive due to it’s high praise…but I’m struggling to see the benefits of it.
