Last modified: February 18, 2017 --- # best elementor compatible themes? * [JCBuenoo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcbuenoo/) * (@jcbuenoo) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/) * what are the best elementor compatible themes? Freemium would be preferred but paid is always an option, of course.

Lyle * [dasigna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dasigna/) * (@dasigna) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8220722) * totally agree with wp learn basics – generatepress ist the one of choice so far! pro version highly recommended and worth every single cent, support simply astonishing. * but EL also works well with several other themes i’ve used up to now (best if they dont have their own builder implemented). * [Boaz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boazpojo/) * (@boazpojo) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8221601) * Hi [@jcbuenoo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcbuenoo/), GeneratePress are an excellent option. You can also check our themes in here: [http://pojo.me/themes/](http://pojo.me/themes/) * [chook](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chook/) * (@chook) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8224318) * Hi [@jcbuenoo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcbuenoo/), * I’ve had some nice results using [Elementor](https://wordpress.org/plugins/elementor/) and [Elementor Page Templater](https://wordpress.org/plugins/elementor-templater/) Plugin together with the following themes: * [GeneratePress](https://wordpress.org/themes/generatepress/) [Sydney](https://wordpress.org/themes/sydney/) [Nisarg](https://wordpress.org/themes/nisarg/) [Vantage](https://wordpress.org/themes/vantage/) * and a few others… * For best **Full Width results** the Content Width in Elementor was set to 1920px * Considering the themes are basically used only for Header/Menu and Footer, I’d like to see a theme without the fluff with only the essential elements to adjust and style. * [sometin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sometin/) * (@sometin) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8237383) * the problem with paid themes are the bundled bloatware they come with which can cause conflicts with plugins like elementor. I had a paid theme bought from themeforest, scrapped it and switched to elementor with Formation (Free) theme. Its working great. * Why does elementor even need a theme it creates everything lol You need a theme which allows maximum control and i have not been able to get that even with Formation( Its a issue in the themes widget area, not elementors issue), able to control most of the content area with elementor though. * [sometin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sometin/) * (@sometin) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8237388) * boaz i did not know you guys had themes as well. Once this project im working on is over and elementor survives me I’ll pick up a theme even if i don’t need it as thanks! * [iografica](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iografica/) * (@iografica) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8250159) * Hi, i’m happy to announce that also our free [Base WP](https://it.wordpress.org/themes/base-wp/) theme is perfectly compatible with Elementor! * [archerdata](https://wordpress.org/support/users/archerdata/) * (@archerdata) * [9 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8263247) * I have been setting up a new site that has the Customizr theme and the two make it much faster to get the basic setup work done. Previously, I’ve installed Customizr at least a dozen times without any problems. * Don * [Albert_o_ne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/albertocaruso/) * (@albertocaruso) * [9 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8548341) * is it preferable to build a site beginning with a “starter theme” (basic, no styles), a “theme”, a “framework”? since I can build a page from scratch or from a “page template” (Elementor library), how the customization made with Elementor integrate with the structure of a theme rather than another? sorry for the lack of experience, but there are too many variants … * [bennyboot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bennyboot/) * (@bennyboot) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-elementor-compatible-themes/#post-8754245) * I too am curious what’s a solid reliable and stable combo. I was thinking the genesis theme. If I was going to use the Elementor’s template library do I really need to install a 3rd party theme or is it smarter just use the default theme from WP and apply one of the templates from the Elementor Template Library. Sorry, I’m new to this and come from a designer background so my understanding is a little noobish.
