OxyExtras is a powerful, lightweight component library designed specifically to extend the capabilities of the Oxygen Builder for WordPress. It empowers web designers and developers to build complex, feature-rich websites entirely within the visual editor, eliminating the need for excessive custom code or third-party shortcode plugins. By adding over 40 flexible, ready-to-use components to your Oxygen library, it streamlines your workflow and allows you to create sophisticated user experiences with ease.
Key Features
- Extensive Component Library: Access 40+ specialized elements, including Mega Menus, Off-Canvas wrappers, Carousel Builders, Content Switchers, and more, all natively integrated into the Oxygen editor.
- Visual Customization: Style every aspect of your components directly within the Oxygen interface, ensuring your design remains consistent without needing to write custom CSS.
- Dynamic Data Support: Many components are built to handle dynamic content, making it simple to display post terms, author boxes, adjacent posts, and other database-driven information.
- Performance Focused: The plugin is engineered to be lightweight. It only loads the necessary code for the specific elements you are actively using on a page, helping to keep your site fast.
- WooCommerce Integration: Enhance your online store with dedicated components like Mini Carts and Cart Counters that can be styled to perfectly match your brand.

Similar Plugins
While OxyExtras is a unique library of components, other tools in the Oxygen ecosystem offer different functionality. Oxy Toolbox is a popular alternative that focuses more on site-wide management, editor UI improvements, and utility modules, rather than just visual components. Depending on your project needs, you may find that these plugins serve different, often complementary, purposes within your development workflow.
