Hi Beaver Builder team,

This will likely be the dumbest question asked this weekend…

I have an existing site built with Wordpress (Twenty-Twelve theme). It has only static pages; there is no blog.

Am I able to install Beaver Builder onto the site and use the page templates to “overlay” the existing content? Or must I rebuild each page and copy/paste the existing content onto the new pages?

Thanks!

Hey Damon,

You’re gonna have to do the latter, rebuild each page and copy/paste the existing contents to the new one.
