I use Asset Cleanup to optimize for speed too. With it I can disable the use of determined files in determined pages. For example, one case, I don't need the forms files (.css and .js) loading in the home page or any page that don't have a form in it.I don't need all woocommerce cart files loading everywhere. So you can improve site speed a lot with this plugin.
OxyToolbox is great. Also, I was just watching your template video. As you know, the Oxygen menus suck. I've been using Ubermenu for mega-menus. It's just a whole lot simpler and more flexible than the mega-menu item in Oxygen.
The two are good. Oxyninja css utility class are very good. Oxymade have much more design template and a bigger set of utility class because it is based on Tailwind css framework
I am actually going the Ninja route. I've found way more references on Ninja and Kevin Geary has really helped with breaking it down. Still waiting for his comparison video, but I'm a Ninja for now.
@@kevinsedwards I actually don't think there's a right or wrong option. It's all a matter of preferences. My preference for now is Ninja. That could change later.
Yes please! and I'll never understand why Oxygen has no functionality to hide pagination. Love Oxygen, but they really need to clean up a few things before jumping to new functionality.
I have both. Both are great products. Oxyninja if you don't have experience with CSS frameworks. Fast, simple, refined. Free icon pack with it. Oxymade if you're experienced with frameworks, especially Tailwind. More complex, more flexible, but requires more knowledge and time. Oxyninja contains let's say molecules, while Oxymade is made up of atoms.
Sidenote: Happyfiles categories can also be queried into repeaters the same way as galleries. Awesome feature to have clients sort out their posts if need be.
I am adding the following to the setup: • Advanced scripts (which removes code snippets and header footer plugins) • Oxy toolbox - awesome oxygen features that saves a ton of time • My custom functionality - by wpdevdesign (easily include js files etc to oxygen build) • WP Reset - one-click install pre-made groups of plugins + take snapshots + reset wp to whatever state you want. • Coming soon & maintenance mode pro Please make oxymade video!!! I started with oxyninja, but I way prefer oxymade now. Would also love to see how you are using frameworks in conjunction with your own style of developing.
I am a newbie. I know I am asking a lot, but would you be able to do a tutorial? I have watched the demos, but I would love to see more. I understand if you are too busy. Many thanks for reading.
I was also wondering about security plugins and do you recommend them? By the way, I did join your membership forum and find well worth the cost, Thank you!
Hi mate, you mention that you can query a Happy Folder folder inside an Oxygen page. Is there any tutorial on this? Many thanks and congratulations for your great tutorials, definitely the best! Cheers
You mention in your video that you "brutally modify" your OxyNinja frameworks. Maybe you would consider a video on some of the things you changed and/or your process and decisions on those changes. Also, do you do them on a case by case basis or are you doing them across the board for your basic plugin "stack"?
They're across the board ... baked into my site blueprint. Basics: I change everything that uses PX to REM. I remove default styling from the heading classes. I adjust the grid gap spacing a little. I used to change things to clamp, but OxyNinja is already transitioning a lot of stuff to clamp by default, so that's not as necessary anymore.
@@Gearyco I would love to see a short video on your process for changes if you can. Thanks for the clarification. I guess what I am really asking is where are all the css styles for selectors stored to modify? Are they on a sheet, in the DB or are you going through and modifying each one - one at a time?
I have piotnet and shied away from using it before as didn't find it intuitive to use at all. But, I must say, there is an absolute tonne of functionality included. I think they need to really work on their ui/ux and how to build the forms but you can build super powerful forms with it....

When you make a new install do you have a setup similar to this? th-cam.com/video/jzr_qSEB9Xg/w-d-xo.html&t I'm rebuilding my site, it's the first time using oxygen.

Is there a plugin I'm not using that you think I should be? Tell me what's good...

Would love to see a full tutorial on WP Grid Builder! All the use cases and integration with Oxygen. Cool video by the way!
Considering moving from Elementor to Oxygen, videos like this are VERY helpful.
I would love to see the oxyninja v oxymade review video. I am really stumped about which to buy
@@kevinsedwards The poll is swinging the direction of OxyNinja in the Facebook group though.

Will do.

I was just scrolling down to the comments to say this same thing. Super interested in that now.

Yes, please a video about Oxymade. Btw, your videos are very helpful. Thanks!
Oxymade vs Oxyninja

Oxyninja contains let's say molecules, while Oxymade is made up of atoms.
@@theclovergent2143 that sums it up nicely! But what is that free icon pack you're talking about?
@@devilsinkpot it comes with OxyCore (OxyNinja)
Its this video here that made me consider your inner circle 💪🙏 Thanks sir 👍
OxyToolbox should be on the list too😎 those extra condition are so needed

Yep, I mentioned that. It's a great feature.

Please make oxymade video!!!
I started with oxyninja, but I way prefer oxymade now.
Would also love to see how you are using frameworks in conjunction with your own style of developing.
I’m about to release automatic.css so won’t be doing any other framework videos.
Daniel i have the same "must have" plugins list, but why oxymade is a must have too ? I know its cool to use, but not essential imo...
I’m a big fan of dashboard switcher for creating custom dashboards. Interested to see what you think.
I am a newbie. I know I am asking a lot, but would you be able to do a tutorial? I have watched the demos, but I would love to see more. I understand if you are too busy. Many thanks for reading.
How do you backup your web? what do you use for security? what do you use for spam?
yes please, Oxymade vs Oxyninja!
What do you think of hummingbird and smush in combo with Oxygen? Seems great outside Oxygen but not sure with Oxygen.
Oxyninja vs oxymade would be great. I am leaning oxyninja by your workflow.
Thank you sir.
Please share a tutorial on designing the oxygen website using JS libraries like Barba JS, SWUP JS, and Highway. Thanks.
I don’t use any of those sorry
I would love to see an updated version of the plugins, justifying the change and focused on bricks.
I’ll do one to kick off the new year!
How about site security plugins? do you recommend them?
Great lesson on plugin picks. I noticed that you do not enable auto updates, is there a reason not to enable auto updates?
I don't like my sites changing without my input.
I was also wondering about security plugins and do you recommend them? By the way, I did join your membership forum and find well worth the cost, Thank you!
Do you use a plugin for security e.g. Wordfence or All In One WP Security?
Depends on hosting. Have used a number of them. Don’t currently have a favorite.
Thanks for the excellent breakdown.
Really good WordPress video!
Duplicator - for full backups during developing and for final migration to a live server.
I use AIO for this, but migration plugins aren't in my regular stack.
Hi mate, you mention that you can query a Happy Folder folder inside an Oxygen page. Is there any tutorial on this?
Many thanks and congratulations for your great tutorials, definitely the best!

Haven't made one yet. Easiest way is to use WP Grid Builder.
I wanna see the review oxymade vs oxyninja
You can reduce plugins with exporting the code from CPT UI to code snippets
A little late, but any pointers how I would go about doing this?
@@adstractmediamarketing4312 Just click on CPT UI/tools and find there "Get Code". And there, you will find everything divided by names of your codes.
Can You Please Make A Video Talking About Security ? Thanks
Really good WP work!
How do you handle security? No firewall plugins??
Firewall is on the server.
@@Gearyco I assumed you had a firewall and cache running on your server. Both would be great videos!

How to save and install a plugin stack?
Will do a video on this.
I would trade off both the Snippets and Header and Footer plug-ins for just Woody snippets plugin.
Curious as to why you don't like Salesforce.
Not enough room in the comments section to paste my list.
Fair enough.
very goog video thank you
Just what about Advanced Script ? Instead of Code Snippets and Header Footer Code Manager.
I can't recommend it because I haven't personally used it, but I'm planning on playing around with it soon.
What free contact form plugin option would you recommend if you don't have WS Form?
Not sure, honestly. Most people use Contact Form 7 but I hate it. I never use free forms plugins.
I have piotnet and shied away from using it before as didn't find it intuitive to use at all. But, I must say, there is an absolute tonne of functionality included. I think they need to really work on their ui/ux and how to build the forms but you can build super powerful forms with it....
You can use Fluent Forms.
i am just a beginner but i thought the best is not to use many plugins - more than 5 is not good at all - security and page speed?
This is a non issue if you use high quality plugins. But yes you want to limit them as much as possible. But 15-20 is not uncommon .
Why does shortpixel have so many negative reviews as of recently?
Not sure. Haven’t seen them?
I don't like how the styles are inherited using the oxygen design sets.
When you make a new install do you have a setup similar to this? th-cam.com/video/jzr_qSEB9Xg/w-d-xo.html&t
I'm rebuilding my site, it's the first time using oxygen.
What templates need to create eg blog page, inner page, main and do you create classes and elements?
Do you create a file you can add after installing oxygen? Could you show us this process?
Thanks
Isaac
I don’t recommend using those design sets.
Please oxy toolbox vidéo
I don’t have toolbox I have Extras
