Enjoying Word Press

Posted by admin  Published in Software Review

I’m really enjoying working with Word Press. Long I have searched for a good CMS (content management system), and this seems to be the one I’ve liked best. Even though my team and I have work on our own in house CMS for now 5 years, I am seriously considering moving new web projects to WP. We can focus our design efforts on the visual front end, using WP theme system, and let clients manage their own data input through the page and blog system.

Some of the advantages of WP I’ve seen thus far are:

  1. Fully installable on our servers, we (clients and us) control the content, no relying on third parties which may or may not be there a year from now
  2. Highly customizable, both on a visual level and a technical level.
  3. Highly extendable via plugins/widgets
  4. It’s free and Open Source, no additional cost to the client
  5. It’s LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP), no Windows Server Complications
  6. Very eye candy, for those who are impressed by such trivial things :)

The TCG Site is now fully under its management with our custom work. Let’s see how it works.

I’ve been working on an update to our local Hospice’s site, and I’m leaning to using WP for Article Publishing and Events Calendar Management. It will be a good test of the system to see if we can take a WP CMS site and “module” it into our existing home grown framework.

I Love My Job! :)
