Installing BoldGrid with WordPress

BoldGrid for Designers and Do-It-Yourself Webmasters
BoldGrid’s simple, intuitive drag and drop interface and seamless integration with the WordPress customizer allows designers to engage their creative instincts without having to worry about the tedious nuances of WordPress.

HOW DOES BOLDGRID WORK?
It’s an automated combination of themes, plugins, widgets, pages, page layouts, menus, photos, icons and written content that seamlessly extends the functionality and workflow of WordPress from CMS to website builder without sacrificing usability or simplicity.

BoldGrid’s design workflow is comprised of two major stages: The Inspiration Phase and the Customization Phase. The Inspiration Phase allows you to explore different website designs, pages you may want in your site, content that is specific to your industry, and functionality you may need. The Inspiration Phase is designed to give you a complete site, content and all. Then, you’ll enter the Customization Phase, where you’ll edit these elements to tailor the site to your specific needs.

BoldGrid comes equipped with all the plugins you need to build secure and powerful WordPress websites. Never worry about digging through the massive WordPress repository to build a patchwork of questionable plugins that may not be compatible with each other.
