Hi,

I loved SiteOrigin, congs guys.

I want to use SiteOrigin with my custom theme which is Frexi

Frexi has beautiful widgets, i can reach them if i use Visual Composer. But I want to use SiteOrigin Page Builder but I can’t see my theme widgets in SiteOrigin widgets menu.

How can I solve this ?

    Hi Emre

    Thanks for reaching out.

    How are you registering your widgets? If you are using https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_widget they should be available to Page Builder.

    So thank you for your answer. But I could not realize How can I create
    Widget class for site origin widgets ? Could you give me a some example ?
    or tutorial ?

    If you’re just creating widgets to include in a theme then you’d register them normally: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_widget. Is that what you’re doing? Adding widgets to your theme?

    Hi,

    I bought Frexi theme which in on the this link,
    <https://themeforest.net/item/frexy-responsive-multipurpose-html5-template/9242540&gt;
    I am using Virtual Composer atm. But I want to use SiteOrigin because it has more clear UI and more functions such as buttons widget.

    But I can’t use site origin because I cant see my template widgets on
    SiteOrigin widgets section. How can I use my theme widgets with SiteOrigin ?

    Thank you for your interest and congratulations for the siteOrigin.

    Thanks for your feedback and for explaining again. A widget that is specific to Visual Composer, unfortunately, won’t work in Page Builder. The widgets you can see at AppearanceWidgets, regular WP widgets, those are what Page Builder works with.
