Hi,
I am currently looking for a Theme and would appreciate any thoughts on the following two questions.
My site is not just an event site but rather a site for a small training company with a small number of offline 2-10 days trainings (events). So I need not only event management functionality but some forum and social staff.
So the first question- what should be the best (I.e. easiest) way for me:
• Chose some general Theme like Avada with Bbpress and Budypress support and make it work with EE or
• Chose one of the showthemes event Theme and add forum, groups, blogs and other staff there?
Second question – at your third party plugin page you have LearnDash plugin displayed. Does it mean that you have full compatibility with that plugin? Do you have any showcases where both EE and LearDash are installed? Do you have any Theme recommendation that would fit for both EE and LearnDash on the same site?

Hi,
We don’t really offer theme recommendations as, especially for EE4, most well coded themes will work fine.
I would recommend avoiding any themes that have inbuilt Events custom post types (they can be used but you will need to modify the EE events slug) and one page themes that change the URL structure as I’ve noticed these can cause issues with EE’s own URL structure.
Other than that any well coded theme should be fine. We also recommend caution with Themeforest themes, as from experience we have noticed more support queries coming from themes on that marketplace than any other theme foundry.
LearnDash is a thirdparty application, so it has been specifically designed by those developers to work with EE – as far as we are aware it is fully integrated.
We have a showcase here (https://eventespresso.com/showcase/) but we don’t separate the sites by what they use etc.
