    Hi,

    I have been looking at frameworks available for WordPress so as to work on responsive designs. Zeroed in on twitter bootstrap, and wp-foundation (this is currently based on zurb foundation 3.0….an older version). Also, REACTOR is a theme that I have bumped into. Its based on Zurb foundation 4.

    My websites for WordPress are currently brochures sites.

    a. Recently my clients have started demanding responsive site design and I would like to have some recommendations about the direction that I should be taking.

    b. Are there limitation / restrictions in using plugins when using frameworks?.

    Thanks.

    Have you tried using any of the responsive themes?

    As far as use of plugins is concerned, there is actually no restriction on the number of plugins used – but using too many plugins can sometimes affect your site performance as they may use up too much resources at the server.

    Thanks Krishna, Yes I understand that part of Plugins…….too many may create issues…………but my questions about plugins is with regards to framerwork….

    b. b. Are there limitation / restrictions in using plugins when using frameworks?.

    Frameworks use a certain jquery library or javascript libraries (if I am correct) and does this automatically limit the usage of plugins that maybe using other jquery libraries?

    No I have not used responsive themes. From what I understand its better to use framework. I read this article below –

    Thanks.

    In fact, it depends on the framework that you are using – in the sense that if the theme is already using the functionality done with plugins. For example, functions of SEO plugins that are built into themes. I myself use Genesis for two of my sites and free WordPress themes for others. I personally believe in using simple responsive themes and to supplement them for additional functionality with plugins though I do not use too many plugins.
