    Fake comments and another shitty video advertisement, video name says one thing and this guy is talking about his "professional" "easy" business where he just aant to make money out of you.. Fuckin hilarious how you try to draw in customers.
    P.S. Also reporting for misleading title

    OMG. This is so helpful. I thought the terms were interchangeable . Hence, I didn’t know why a product like Astra is needed w Elementor. I have seen Thrive Theme and Architect, and didn’t know why I need both. Thanks!

    My question is in regards to html bloat. I use Elementor and when viewing the source code using Chrome "View Page Source" the page contains huge and numerous blocks of code as compared with a professionally built web page. My homepage takes just over 3 sec to load (size = 1.5 MB), mostly due to the high number of requests (52 requests). I'm wondering if the slow load time can also be attributed to the excessive html bloat. Another consideration is how efficient the page builder is at making changes to the html in the editor. Does the overwrite process increase bloat?

    Thrive Architect should be called "Thrive Page Architect" not "Thrive Architect" because it is a more specialized tool. It is page template designer for low-instance pages, like one-off pages, landing pages, or registration pages. Thrive Theme Builder has more capabilities at the theme level. Why do I say this? Because "Architect" is a much more global concept than theme, like business architect, site architect, or network architect. WordPress Themes are applied and contained within a website, and can be applied across a collection of websites. You need the word "Page" used as an adjective to describe and qualify Thrive Architect.

    I can't seem to find where to edit the 404 page in the new Thrive Theme Builder since there's no more Thrive Options. Where can I edit it?

    can you develop a sample woocommerce site with the new TT sitebuilder?

    Hi, I'm a new Thrive Themes member and enjoying the products, using your tutorials on a daily basis at the moment. I also very much like the Thrive Themes video tutorial format, mostly with a clean white background (green screen?) and interactive content with highlighted 'circle' inserts to show screen share moments, as well as switching the presenter from full screen to bottom right or elsewhere also in a circle. What screen capture software do you use to create that simple effect while adding some zoom-zoom out variety to the presentation? With COVID-19 I need to bring my courses online and the spare style you deploy at Thrive Themes is professional but not overdone.

    HI, Can I export the theme I built and name it whatever I want and install on other site without install thrive?

    Theme Builder has been released today ! I 'm Loving it 😍💓

    So what's the difference between Theme Builder and using one of your pre-filled themes like Minus? And if I use Minus for example, and I load up Theme Builder, do I lose all my Minus settings? Do I have to build from scratch? Do I modify Minus using Theme Builder? Confused.

    Fantastic news about Thrive Theme Builder. I am really looking forward to trying it out.

    Will we have greater control/more choices when it comes to setting color schemes? Probably the only complaint I have with Thrive.

    A Noticeable Suggestion:

    Could you guys update SOCIAL SHARING elements as well. It should have top (50+) social profiles. Currently there are only 5 which is insufficient, of course.

    Looking forward to seeing these updates rolling asap. Your guys are awesome. I am loving it. 😍

    How about Custom Fields for Contact Form element. Please update this asap. So that we can add a Custom Drop Down and a check-boxes as well. Thanks for the update ☺️

    I'd love to know the intro/outro music. I love it. Looking forward to the official (ish) release. As an Alpha Squad member, I've been very impressed…

    So what's the difference between Thrive theme builder and thrive Architect. Do i still need thrive themes

  20. Michael Metres-Akbar

    Just to make sure I got it — would I be able to replace my current theme and instead use Thrive Theme Builder instead of my current theme, right? The theme I am using today is a very skinny one to minimize impact on performance. Any comments on Theme Builders impact on performance, if any?

    What is with load times (for SEO and Users)? Light weighted, superfast, etc.?

  23. Bishnu Mahali

    February 18, 2021 at 4:10 pm

    So what about Thrive Architect owners? Do they have to buy it separately? That's unfair. We're expecting like Elementor Pro.

  24. Helmilectric

    February 18, 2021 at 4:10 pm

    Very keen to see if Thrive Theme Builder is just another copy of Elementor, Beaver, Divi in terms of Theme building or if there's any innovation or step forward in it.

    I can't wait to try this out. I'm excited

    No need to buy Clickfunnels at $100/mo nor LeadPages at $25/mo since Thrive Architect does the same thing (unless you need to do upsell/downsells with Clickfunnels).

    Will Thrive Theme Builder support Toolset Plugin?

    will you have a special guide for thrive users who use a thrive theme at the moment? will shifting to theme builder be easy (or made easy)? Thanks, very curious…
