Here’s the plugin with a working example.
If you click Magazine you’ll see the current wordpress site which is currently hosted on our old site. @syl has already made a Wordpress plugin so we can transition it to the new Publichappinessmovement.com site, which will speed it up - although it will always be slow as wordpress is, especially with the amount of plugins we are using.
Pros:
- Faster
- Looks smoother
- Probably more intuitive out the box for users to post a blog/magazine post. a function which few have found on their own
- Using less diverse codebase makes maintaining it easier
- More secure as we remove the SSO communication and account sync between the two user databases
Cons:
- We would lose all of the plugins, like the Instgram link, the link to our shop, the donate pages, etc.
- Extra work (we can also plan to do this but shelve it until more urgent building is done)
- Loss of many external links pointing to our site
- We’d also need to find and update all internal links
@UXers does it look better?
@WebDev How easy would it be to pull all of the posts and pages into a new site?
