wordpress is eighty-eight times better than wix.
you could sell things with your wordpress site through the woocommerce plugin. could have avoided the shopify clusterfuck by using woocommerce.
many other reasons but I don't have time to go through them all right now.
wix feels like one of "Those Companies" who would ban this operation if they found out about it
most definitely. sam needs to move to open source software or he'll just keep getting censored again and again. ah well I guess getting censored is good publicity so maybe sam is playing 5D chess boxing.
ya so dont fucking tell your gay reddit friends
@profbs more like 2-D checkers
shut up faggot word press is gay and doesn't work
Just like my unemployed little brother (Fuck you Daniel)
wordpress is a great way to get yourself hacked also it sucks.
what sam and all you alt-right retards need to do is found a new industry worth trillions of dolalrs off the back of innovations and progress you had nothing to do with... THEN you get to control what people can say and think
jesus butt-fucking christ the retardation here is intense. it appears sam's hilarious mental instability has unironically infected a bunch of low-IQ incel trolls. I run a $6m+ website on wordpress, no LARP, and we've never had a security issue. other companies that use wordpress include the BBC, Bloomberg, Sony, Microsoft, Disney, and many others. shut the fuck up you literal mouth-breathing double-nigger faggot retards unless you actually know what the fuck you're talking about. if wordpress is good enough for Alanis Morissette then it's good enough for sammy.
Wix terms of use specifically deny free speech; look at section 2.3.2 of their terms of use: "[You agree and undertake not to] submit, transmit or display any User Content, or use Licensed Content in a context, which may be deemed as defamatory, libelous, obscene, harassing, threatening, incendiary, abusive, racist, offensive, deceptive or fraudulent, encouraging criminal or harmful conduct, or which otherwise violates the rights of Wix or any third party (including any intellectual property rights, privacy rights, contractual or fiduciary rights), or otherwise shows any person, entity or brand in a bad or disparaging light, without their prior explicit approval;"
And check out section 6.2 you fucking mongoloids:
"Failure to comply with any of the Wix Terms and/or to pay any due Fee shall entitle Wix to suspend (until full payment is made) or cancel your User Account and User Platform (or certain features thereof), as well as the provision of any related Wix Services (e.g., Paid Services) or Third Party Services to you."
enjoy your data being collected and sold to the highest bidder from this botnet garbage platform for <80 IQ crochet enthusiasts. hopefully this is my last post in this cesspool. love ya sam.
I have over 15 years experience in the industry so I'm not speaking without some expertise. Wordpress can and has worked just fine for people who don't need forums, don't have extensive image and video collections, who don't need many features, and don't care about using some braindead layout someone else makes... If you need anything custom at all, it's going to turn into a huge fucking mess. Its source code is atrocious. PHP is fucking atrocious. It's also fucking slow if you don't know what you're doing.
I know I can't prevent anyone from using it who really wants to, so if you do, the one bit of advice I'd give is KEEP ON TOP OF UPDATES. WP is always having exploits found for it since its back end is such a fucking mess.
@BAJAX BAJAX so what's a better libre/open-source CMS? Wordpress might not be perfect but it's the most mature and extensible CMS. you're spreading FUD for no good reason, WP has plenty of forum and media library plugins and plenty of lib-art majors who can whip up nice themes.
anything is better than wix.
@profbs Unified CMSes like Wordpress and Django always end up needing really ugly kludges on the back-end and admin area in order to include even minor customization. It's so weird and awkward-- I always really feel bad delivering them to the client like that. "Here's how you edit your website! Good luck figuring it out!"
And it's so fucking slow on the front-end, you have to try a bunch of caching bullshit which isn't enabled by default and was basically duck-taped onto the top of the old PHP/CGI interface to get it to pull up before people's attention span runs out... and that ends up having tons of weird problems so you break down and finally go to the extent of pre-compiling ALL the HTML to static files from the start. At which point why not just set them up with a Gulp script that pulls a FileMaker DB into a Jade/EJS template layout (which you spend much less time writing from scratch than trying to customize some script-kiddie WordPress PHP rat's nest theme to the customer's liking).
If I need a live management backend so they can edit stuff, I usually whip something up in Vue/React, then have it run a Gulp job to compile the stuff for production.
Shopify is far better for their use. Even though the thugs at Shopify banned them. The best route is to just pay the money to get something built from the ground up. With the breed of content they're putting out, It's best to have a website that isn't tied to a user agreement.
wordpress & woocommerce aren't tied to a user agreement, they're free/libre & open source. I'm done educating the brainlets here. sam you know where to find me.
@profbs It's hard to really explain why wordpress sucks to people who've never had to program with it.
@profbs Yeah, I'll find your ass calling people brainlets on reddit, taking a website that took a good 20 minutes to make, completely seriously, and opening the gates to hell with nearly inhuman self determination to get your little schvinny railed by strangers of the gay community. https://www.reddit.com/user/profBS
