May 21, 2025A Short-Lived Test With ExpressEngineWell, I tried to migrate to ExpressEngine today but with unsatisfactory results. Not only did it take far, far more time than I wanted it to take, I had the following problems: 1) Pinging: it did not properly ping Blogrolling and other sites. Further, I tried to link to OTB earlier and that trackback failed as well. 2) The comments pages would take almost a full minute to load. While I was overall quite impressed with the software (it have many more features than MT), I refuse to give up trackbacking and I while I have flirted with getting rid of comments, I am not ready to do so at this stage, if I ever will be. I spent the better part of the day messing with the darn thing, and driving myself nuts in the process. I am not entirely ready to give up on it, but am close. Mostly I am frustrated with the loss of time given that I was unable to resolve the problems. And, I appear not to be the only one. Maybe I will try WordPress ;) Note: This is part of today's Beltway Traffic Jam. Posted by Steven Taylor at May 21, 2025 07:44 PM | TrackBackComments
A minute to load a page? They should rename it DistressedEngine. Posted by: Paul at May 21, 2025 11:48 PMWordPress works great for me. Posted by: Robin at May 22, 2025 04:02 PMPost a comment
