Which Wordpress themes work well with GF

  1. Simple question - wil Gravity Forms work with all WP themes? Any favourite themes that work really well with GF?

  2. All well-coded themes will work with Gravity Forms. So long as they do not have JavaScript or jQuery errors, and they follow best practices for theme development, and include the proper call to wp_head() and wp_footer() you should not have any problem. If you know of a specific theme provider you want to use, try adding it as a tag to this topic, then follow that tag. You will see other's experience at that point.

    We have the most trouble with Themeforest themes, but each of those themes is provided by an individual coder. There are a couple of things they tend to do wrong over and over which creates untold headaches for everyone involved.

    To be honest, my personal favourite theme would be Twenty-Eleven. I think it is well designed, lends itself well to customization, and works well with pretty much any plugin you can pile onto it. I use a heavily CSS customized version of it on my personal blog, and I'm looking forward to Twenty-Twelve when it comes out as the new default theme.

    But everything Chris said above is true. Before you grab a theme, check to make sure it doesn't have JavaScript errors, uses a very recent version of JQuery, and puts it in the header, and you'll be more likely to end up happy.
