Genesis vs Kadence: Which WordPress Framework Is Right for Your Site?

in: Kadence, WordPress Themes

If you’ve been using a Genesis theme for a while, you might be wondering whether it’s time for something new. As design trends evolve and WordPress gets more powerful, it’s no surprise that many site owners are making the switch to Kadence.

We’ve been working with Kadence for quite some time now, and it’s become our go-to framework for building beautiful, flexible websites. It’s refreshingly modern, incredibly versatile, and a total game-changer when it comes to customizing your site. If you’re considering an upgrade, here’s why Kadence might be exactly what you’re looking for.

What Makes Kadence Different from Genesis?

Genesis was once the gold standard in the WordPress world — stable, clean, and developer-friendly. But as the web has changed, so have the needs of bloggers and business owners. Genesis relies heavily on widget areas, PHP templates, and a more hands-on approach that often requires some tech know-how.

Kadence, on the other hand, is built with today’s WordPress user in mind. It uses the Block Editor, which means drag-and-drop editing, live previews, and endless customization options. All without touching a single line of code!

Not sure what a theme framework is or what Kadence does? Here’s an overview of Kadence and how it works!

Why Site Owners are Making the Switch to Kadence

1. Visual Page Building

Say goodbye to rigid templates and hello to total creative freedom. 🪄 Kadence lets you design every page visually using the WordPress Block Editor. Drag and drop, move things around, tweak layouts, and quickly build pages that reflect your style + work for your goals!

2. Easy to Customize

Between the Kadence Theme and Kadence Blocks, you have complete control over your website’s design. You can easily:

  • Choose your own fonts and colors
  • Customize the layout of the header, navigation, and footer
  • Adjust font sizes, line height, margins, padding, spacing, and so on
  • Freely rearrange sections on any page, and move sections between pages
  • Create your own custom sections using Kadence Blocks
  • Adjust mobile, tablet, and desktop settings
  • And so much more!

All of this happens right inside Kadence, no coding or extra tools required.

3. Modern Features Already Built-In

With Kadence, you don’t have to hunt for plugins or cobble together workarounds. Features like sticky headers, scroll-to-top buttons, animation effects, author boxes, related posts, and a large library social icons come built right into the theme.

4. Lightning-Fast Performance

Kadence is lightweight and optimized for speed, which means your site will load quickly and rank better in search engines. If your Genesis site has started to feel slow or outdated, Kadence is a breath of fresh air!

5. Kadence is Free

One of the best parts about Kadence? Both the Kadence Theme and Kadence Blocks plugin are completely free to use. That means you can start building and customizing your site right away using the flexible, free tools built into Kadence.

6. Designed for Mobile

Your website should look just as beautiful on a phone as it does on a desktop. Kadence includes mobile-specific design controls so you can adjust fonts, spacing, and layout to ensure a smooth, polished experience on every device. 📱

7. Ready for Your Online Shop

Running a shop or thinking about starting one? Kadence integrates seamlessly with WooCommerce, giving you tons of options to style your product pages, cart, and checkout experience, right from the Customizer.

8. Simple, Beginner-Friendly Setup

Setting up a new site can be overwhelming, but Kadence takes all the guesswork out of the process. With the built-in one-click demo import, you can start with a professionally designed layout and then customize it with your own content and unique style.

What Is Kadence? Why It’s Our Favorite WordPress Theme Framework

in: Kadence, WordPress Themes

Ready to find your dream Kadence theme? Explore our full lineup of feminine WordPress Themes.

What is Kadence?

Kadence is a powerful theme framework and block system that allows for endless customization possibilities. You can customize every aspect of your site with no code: layout, fonts, colors, and so much more. And Kadence is completely free for you to use, so no additional purchase is required! A Pro version is available that offers some extra features, but these features are not used/shown in our theme demos.

So what is Kadence exactly, and how does it fit in WordPress? To break it down, we like the analogy of a car:

  • Your hosting company is your garage – it’s where all of your website’s files are stored for safekeeping.
  • Your domain (yourwebsite.com) is your license plate – it’s how people find you on the web.
  • WordPress is the engine of your car – it provides all the essential underlying functions needed to run your website.
  • Kadence is the body of your car – it adds the basic structure and core features to your website, such as navigation and accessibility.
  • A child theme (like ours!) adds the design and pretty, extra elements to your car – think paint, a fancy touchscreen radio, heated steering wheel, luxurious leather seats. Child themes make your website beautiful, unique, and all you! Child themes also allow you change the appearance of your website safely, so you won’t lose your changes when updating Kadence.

You can learn more about Kadence in our FAQ and on the Kadence website.

Why Use Kadence?
