Zen Addons for SiteOrigin Page Builder is a curated set of 37 widget extensions built on the official SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle framework. SiteOrigin Page Builder is fast and dependable, but its stock widgets can look dated. Zen Addons fills that gap with modern, sleek widgets that look polished out of the box and stay lightweight. It adds the practical, everyday building blocks most sites actually need, from tabs, accordions, and pricing tables to FAQ sections with Schema.org markup, team grids, testimonials, and video lightboxes, so you can build richer pages inside SiteOrigin without reaching for a heavier page builder. Every widget is designed to be clean, accessible, and easy to style. Widgets render with semantic HTML, follow ARIA best practices, and stay out of your way: nothing loads on the front end unless a widget that needs it is actually placed on the page. Built for the SiteOrigin workflow Zen Addons plugs directly into Page Builder by SiteOrigin and the SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle. All Zen Addons widgets are grouped under their own “ZASO Widgets” tab in the widget picker, so they are easy to find and never get lost among the core widgets.
