Re: TXP Status?

unfortunately if you’re looking for frequent releases then TXP may not be your cup of tea. i think the main reason WP releases on a monthly basis is because people ALWAYS manage to find a security hole or ten in every release and of course you want to immediately patch these. i don’t know of anything even remotely like pwnpress for textpattern.

Well, this is one point of view. Another one might be to develop and worry about the content of your site as much as you can with what the software offers and not to worry about updating the software all the time.

I’m not worried about updating all the time. Being that I never really used WP, I have no expectations for TXP to be similar to it in that respect. I was worried about locking myself into using software that would become somewhat obsolete compared to industry standards… Developing content is one thing, manipulating and managing it is another.

I have, however, decided to give TXP a go. There is a bit of a learning curve involved though as thing are worded and done a bit differently than I’m use to. I also found some of the options in the Admin Panel to be a bit ambiguous (to me anyway). I found myself having to order the “Textpattern Solutions” book to help me on my way. It should be here within the week.

Re: TXP Status?

Yes, I see that, and you all will most likely be hearing lots more from me. Hopefully after I get my brain wrapped around everything, I’ll be in a position to be just as helpfully as you all have been. Thank You.

if you haven’t read them yet, there are a couple of good articles by Destry Wion here and here that might prove helpful whilst you await delivery of your copy of Textpattern Solutions.
