Does Forge work with all themes?

Yes, Forge is specially coded to play nicely with most WordPress themes. However, some themes may have a very unorthodox design which may conflict with the plugin a bit. In that case, contact us at CPOThemes and we will work to resolve the issue.

The page builder starts, but nothing works.

Check if you have a Javascript error caused by another plugin by deactivating your other plugins, one by one.
