Some information from this article may refer to our Inspiro theme, but the instructions are actual for the Derive theme too.

Using Beaver Builder

After the installation of Derive theme, you will be asked to install and activate recommended plugins.

Two of the recommended plugins are:

Beaver Builder (Lite)
WPZOOM Addons for Beaver Builder

Once you will have both these plugins installed, you will be able quickly to load layouts from the demo of Derive or create your own page layouts.

If you haven’t used Beaver Builder before, we recommend you to start here.

How to add Widgets in Beaver Builder

One thing that we like about Beaver Builder is that it’s not limited to a specific number of modules that you can use in your pages. Beaver Builder allows you to use any existing WordPress widgets you want! For example, you can easily insert regular widgets or shortcodes to display a map in a page with a custom layout created using the page builder.

You can find these widgets in the WordPress Widgets group from Modules:
