I’ve tried to get into wordpress; installed it numerous times and there’s cool plugins… but overall it’s just too hard I’ve found to make it as flexible as I need, compared to using tables in dreamweaver. i know it’s the platform of choice i guess nowadays, but i still feel like “it’ll take forever to do something in WP, that would just take me 10 seconds to do in dreamweaver for a standard html site”.
i mean, positioning stuff on a page using WP is a big huge hassle compared to tables in DW. i know, usability of CMS and personalized logins and ease-of-changing the site via templates, all huge WP pluses, I just wish it was easy to cut and paste tables on an open page, like it is in DW. I probably just need to spend more time in WP; but for now my new sites are all still html ones.
