More Freakin’ Changes?

Yeah. More changes. I am trying to clean up the site, make it more functional, make the browsing experience more pleasurable, and learn Wordpress all at the same time. Mostly I’m leaning on Jason for help with plugins and scripts and stuff like that. I think he likes it, well he’s not as burned out on this crap as I am. I dealt with MT for a few years and this is my first blog endeavor outside the MT world since I mucked with LiveJournal and some other server-side scripts. I’m impressed with Wordpress, but the documentation is pathetic for a lot of the plugins. I don’t think that the developers take as much pride in their work as the developers did in the MT community when I was still actively using it. There was more of an effort for documentation and communication. My biggest wish for the Wordpress community is that they install a real threaded bulletin board system for their users. Finding answers to my questions and posting things in the right place would be a lot easier if a real forum was installed.

I also think the Wordpress community could stand to start a plugin/hack site like the MT Plugins site, where things are posted when they’re updated and users can help each other with problems. Most of what I miss about MT relates to the community, but WP is young yet so things will hopefully change for the better.
