SiteOrigin Page Builder
SiteOrigin Page Builder is a free WordPress plugin for creating custom layouts from widgets arranged in responsive rows and columns. Columns stack on mobile, and the Live Editor lets you change pages on the frontend while seeing the result immediately. A History Browser moves backward and forward through edits, while the SiteOrigin Layout Block places full Page Builder layouts inside WordPress's Block Editor. Styling controls cover row backgrounds, padding, margins, borders, full-width sections, parallax backgrounds, and custom CSS classes. The plugin works in a theme's content loop and SiteOrigin says it works with most WordPress themes without changes. The Widgets Bundle adds 28 free widgets, including maps, contact forms, sliders, carousels, and price tables. SiteOrigin says only widgets in use load CSS and JavaScript. Requirements are WordPress 5.0 or later and PHP 7.4 or later. Paid plans add 45 premium addons.
