WP Theme and CRG on Backlight 2

Could someone let me know if WP Theme works with Backlight 2 CRG?

My WP theme is OShine. Will the WP Theme plugin integrate CRG to look like my Oshine template?

Don't want to buy WP Theme and find it doesn't work with Oshine and Backlight 2 CRG.

Re: WP Theme and CRG on Backlight 2

Backlight and its add-ons, like the CR module, are independent of WordPress.

The Backlight WordPress module will create a new WP theme, which will change your current design.
If you already have a WP theme you like, you don’t need the Backlight WP Theme Module.

You can still use Client Response and you can probably create a design that comes close to your current theme design, but it won’t be the same.

Thanks Rod, with CE4 CRG I got something very close to my WP web page design. Can the CRG template from CE4 be used in Backlight?

Re: WP Theme and CRG on Backlight 2

The designer in Backlight 2 is easier to use and more flexible than in CE4, so I would hope you'd be able to create a reasonable approximation of your theme using Backlight's Designer, hopefully with better ease than you did with CE4.

"Hopefully" being the operative word, though.
