Features & Specs
Oxygen GPL is a powerful visual website builder for WordPress that gives you total control over design without sacrificing performance. Whether you’re building a simple blog, a full agency site or an eCommerce store, Oxygen lets you visually build everything—from page layout to templates and dynamic content—while keeping the output clean and lightweight. With this redistribution from QuickGPL you get the flexibility of full-site editing and the power to design exactly what you imagine, all under the GPL license. QuickGPL is not affiliated with the original developers.
Can I use Oxygen GPL to build client websites and charge them?
Yes — Oxygen GPL lets you design and deliver full WordPress websites for personal use or client projects under the GPL license. While you may need to handle licensing updates on your own, you’re free to charge your clients for your design and development work, not for the plugin itself.
Does Oxygen disable the theme system in WordPress?
In many builds, yes. Oxygen often replaces the standard WordPress theme framework by giving you full layout control of header, footer, templates, pages and posts. That means you’ll typically work inside Oxygen’s builder environment rather than relying on a separate theme.
Is Oxygen GPL compatible with Gutenberg, Elementor or other page builders?
Oxygen GPL is designed to be independent, but it can integrate into a WordPress setup where Gutenberg or other editors are present. That said, mixing multiple builders can lead to complexity — for best results, choose one tool for major layouts and avoid stacking builders inside the same page.
Will my site remain fast and lightweight if I use Oxygen GPL?
Absolutely — one of Oxygen’s strong points is its clean, code-focused output. By disabling unused modules, simplifying templates and avoiding heavy extras, you can keep your site lean, fast and optimized for SEO.
What happens when the original Oxygen developers release a new version — do I receive it?
Under this GPL redistribution model, your version of Oxygen GPL may not automatically include future official updates from the original developers. It’s important to test any new release in a staging environment and be ready to apply custom updates if needed.
How do I migrate a website built with another page builder to Oxygen GPL?
Migration involves rebuilding templates in Oxygen’s builder environment — copying over layouts, recreating sections, and re-assigning content. Because Oxygen uses its own system, you’ll want to test thoroughly on a staging site before switching live to ensure nothing breaks.
Can I sell digital products or downloadables using Oxygen GPL?
Yes — Oxygen GPL gives you full control of layout and site logic, so you can design pages for digital products, set up purchase flows (often via additional plugins or WooCommerce) and deliver content securely. Just plan your permissions and download delivery carefully.
Is Oxygen easy for beginners, or is it mainly for developers?
Oxygen is developer-friendly because of its deep control and clean output. That said, with the right templates and training, beginners can use it too. If you’re new to WordPress site building, give yourself time to learn Oxygen’s workflow and build a small test site first.
