I have read quite a bit of the forum and here and there I notice references to plugins working or not working with WP Remix. There are several WP plugins that I need to have. Is there any limitation of using standard WP plugins with WP Remix theme. I am interested in purchasing a developer license and based on the answer I receive I may have further questions.
Thank you.

Will someone tend to this simple question?

I personally think there is an extreme limitation to using the lots of the wp-plugins that are existing.
I've tried to get some support either from remix developers but nothing has really manifested. So, I've been forced to either go another route.
One test you could do, is if the plugin works in the base kubrick theme, it should "technically" work on the remix theme.
That's the closest I can get to it. But I'm still waiting on better responses myself on some main stream plugins that will extend remix2. It would be great if to be able to extend this based on existing & future plugins.
But......

I can tell you that I personally use several wp plugins eg: spam karma, google analytics, security scan, dragon site map, moderate authors, role manager, login logs, google sitemap generator, all in one seo pack, democracy, email shroud, embed the video, image browser, maintenance mode, nextgen gallery, seo wordpress, wp-contact form, deadbolt, and phpMyAdmin.... they all work with the theme :)

I need to be able to embed Flash files (I currently use Kimili Flash Embed), possibly run NextGen Gallery. These are the critical ones for me. You can take a look at :
http://www.keptlight.com/blog/
You will see several embedded flash slideshows that are served from a database and several NextGen Gallery presentations. I trust it will run those that do not have visitor-side visibility like Akismet, Google Site Map, etc.
Thank you for sharing your experiences.

I would like to embed a flash show using Main Page 1 template. I would like to embed the flash where the main picture on top is located, but do not know how to get rid of the current picture and have a flash presentation playing in that spot.
My file is set up to the exact size of the picture already there. I also use Kimili Flash Plugin to embed flash objects.
My website is http://www.employerease.com
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I haven't had a single plugin not work with this theme.
However, there are combinations of plug ins that don't work. But that is the case with any theme. It is more a function of the plugin than the theme.
If you think you are screwed because you the the 500 server error, I found if you delete all your plugisn via FTP, you get a second chance at a refresh and then you can install your plugins that don't conflict.
I've found the latest release of WP to find the incompatibilities before giving you the dreaded 500 server error.
I run with more than 10 plugins and don't have a problem with the theme at all.

CarMarOnl1,
The issue is not with the plugin. The plugin works just fine on this theme. My question deals with how to embed it where the top picture is on the Home 1 theme page. I look through the code and do not see where it is referenceing the picture so I can replace it with a flash object.
Below is a snippet of the code, but I have no idea where I can insert the flash object to replace the picture.
<?php
/*
Template Name: Home 01
Sidebar: false
*/
?><?php get_remix_header(); ?>
<div id="banner">
<div id="banner-in">
<div class="content">
<h2> Your Site's Main Punchline comes here! </h2>
<p>The secondary text explaining your site/business purpose like what and how it does etc. Below are the few options that you could use to highlight main features of your site/business.</p>
<ul class="option">
<li class="i_feature1">Feature 1
Description text goes here
<li class="i_feature2">Feature 2 text
Description text goes here
<li class="i_feature3">Feature 3 Title
Description text goes here
<li class="i_feature4">Feature 4 Title
Description text goes here
<div>Get Started Now</div>
</div><!--content end -->
</div>
</div>
<!--banner end -->

I now have a post that explains how to integrate Highslide, Next Gen Gallery, and WordPress. If you are interested, point your browsers to:
http://www.keptlight.com/blog/?p=344
This can be implemented on a post by post basis, a little cumbersome but works until someone comes up with a better idea.
