אני שמח לראות שאתה שומר על המסורת של לקרוא לי "מישהו".
המטרה במעבר לוורדפרס היא לא טכנית אלה ניהולית - אני רוצה לאפשר לאנשים שלא מכירים קוד (ולא צריכים להכיר) לעזור בתחזוקת האתר. ממש לא בא לי להתעסק עם המרה של נתונים למבנה XMLי כדי שיתאים לתבנית שהאתר דורש. במקום ש-linux.org.il יכיל את המידע הכי עדכני יש לנו אתר שלא ממש עומד בדרישה של להוות שער לקהילה ולעסקים בארץ. ולא ממש איכפת לי אם יקח לעוד עוד שניה לעלות, העיקר שהמידע שיוצג יהיה רלוונטי. קפלן On Mon, Nov 26, 2012 at 1:37 PM, Shlomi Fish <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > recently someone requested me to implement something on > http://www.linux.org.il/ and after I was distracted and explained the > fact that > it is a custom PHP site that parses XML at run-time and converts it to > HTML, > and that there is no apparent need why it should be a dynamic site, he > said he > thinks he'll just install WordPress there and allow people to edit the > site. > > I think it's a bad idea.
