Switched To WordPress
April 3, 2008 · Print This Article
From this post Streamlined Mind will be running on WordPress. After only three and a half posts I decided that RapidWeaver wasn’t capable of handling my blogging requests well. There were some issues regarding RSS feeds and summarizing posts that apparently could not be addressed, and it lacks simple comments functionality.

As this website is all about streamlining your work-flow, it should of course be running on a platform that is liked by the author, and when set up, will not need any tweaking to make it work every time a post is added. I do still like RapidWeaver. I discovered its power and ease of use only this year, and I think it’s a great application for creating simple and easy-to-manage websites very fast. It’s just not (yet) powerful enough for blogging. So switching to WordPress right away seemed to be the best decision, without having to migrate too many posts. So here we go again!



Hi - I have just moved from Rapidweaver to Wordpress too! And I still love Rapidweaver (I was just thinking this morning “rapidweaver was my first love”), but I am uploading my rapidweaver sites by FTP and I was having to upload the whole blog each time - which I could see would not work into the future. Good luck with your blog (was reading Darren’s comments).
