Converted to wordpress!
|
So the site has been converted to WordPress! What does this mean? It looks pretty much the same right? Well, apart from the blog finally being integrated with the main site, yes, however the backend is completely fresh. At first I was reluctant to convert to WordPress. I’m quite familiar with WordPress and its functionality but in committing to this architecture you generally have to sacrifice some flexibility due to the nature of the themes. After some searching and fiddling however I found that there really was no theme that suited all my requirements. It would seem to be too great of a barrier to develop a custom theme however as I had few other choices I gave it a try, and it was suprisingly easy and flexible to use. Creating a custom theme therefore has the benefit of content management with WordPress while still retaining the possibility to develop custom code and trickery. |
