Oscend pluse - WordPress Theme 2.3.5

Oscend Plus (sometimes styled as Oscend+) is the advanced, premium version of the stylish Oscend business theme. Developed by Templines, it is designed to be a high-conversion tool for creative agencies, marketing firms, and modern portfolios.

As of late 2025, it is frequently found on GPL marketplaces and the Envato ecosystem, marketed as a "strict but beautiful" template for professional firms.

## What Makes the "Plus" Version Different?

While the standard Oscend theme focuses on design, Oscend Plus adds deep functionality for community building and sales:

bbPress Integration: Fully styled support for bbPress, allowing you to run a professional forum or community board directly on your business site.

Full WooCommerce Support: Advanced shop layouts and product widgets that turn the business template into a fully functional online store.

Extended Widget Library: Includes proprietary widgets for "Team Skills," "Progress Bars," and "Client Testimonials" that are not available in the base version.

Advanced Portfolio Grids: Offers more complex filtering options (Ajax-based) for agencies to showcase high volumes of work without slowing down the page.

## Comparison: Oscend Plus vs. Others

Since you have asked about several themes, here is where Oscend Plus fits:

vs. Sallira: Sallira feels more like a "Silicon Valley Startup." Oscend Plus feels more like a "New York Creative Agency"—it is slightly more formal and structured.

vs. Foxin: Both are agency-focused, but Oscend Plus is better if you need a community/forum component (via bbPress).

vs. Ascend (Kadence): Don't confuse Oscend with Ascend. Ascend (by Kadence) is a multipurpose powerhouse, while Oscend is a niche-specific boutique design.

### Important Note on Sourcing

If you are purchasing Oscend Plus from a GPL site (like GPLPlus), keep in mind that these versions often come with a 24–48 hour delay on updates. For a live business site, this can occasionally cause temporary compatibility issues when WordPress releases a major core update.

Would you like me to compare Oscend Plus specifically with its closest competitor, Salient, or do you need a list of the specific widgets included in the "Plus" pack?
