Required Plugins
Gomax depends on a few plugins to unlock its full feature set. This article lists what’s required, what’s optional, and how to install everything in one pass.
Install Required Plugins
Section titled “Install Required Plugins”After you install and activate the theme, a notification appears at the top of the admin recommending the required plugins. Install them to make the most of the theme’s features.
Follow the notification instructions, or go to Appearance » Install Plugins. Select all plugins, then install and activate them.
What Plugins Are Required?
Section titled “What Plugins Are Required?”| Plugin | What it does |
|---|---|
| Gomax Core | The core of the theme. With it installed and activated, you’ll have several features to build your website. |
| Elementor (free) | The page builder. You need this to build your website with drag-and-drop features. |
| Contact Form 7 | The form creator. You can choose another one of your choice if you wish. |
We recommend Elementor because Gomax’s widgets and demo content are built on it. See Important Elementor Settings for the configuration steps to complete after installing it.
Temporary Plugins
