LoftBuilder

Description

LoftBuilder is a drag & drop WordPress page builder. You can build responsive layouts, add text and media, and create engaging animations and interactions. Build your site page in minutes. Without coding.

Intuitive

You can edit every element on the page directly. Type text, change column width, drag and drop to change everything’s position… You know what’s going on your page while working.

It’s not a front-end editor. It’s an editor with front-end looking. That makes your published front-end pages always keep clean, without any extra codes.

Works with any theme

LoftBuilder is a flexible plugin, and it works with almost any theme. You will not lose the content when you switch themes.

BTW, our team is working on some themes for our LoftBuilder.

Switch published content

You can choose which content to publish for each page: the content created in LoftBuilder editor, or the content written in WordPress default editor. So you can publish some essential/summary content while working on more details of a page.

Unlimited Colors

Each element and background can be set to any color you want. And to keep the look consistent throughout your site, you can set a primary accent color and apply it to element – buttons, icons, charts, maps, color overlays, and etc.

Shortcodes are not parsed on LoftBuilder editor?

I've had a play about with this and it's a beautiful page builder to work with in many respects. Looking forward to your starter theme. This bad boy could be a game changer - good work 🙂
