Maybe they know something I'm not aware of.
Kev, does modern forum sw these days have easy blog plugins?
Dunno...I tend to write custom code. I find most prepackaged software difficult to use because clients tend to want things just so, and in the time it would take for me to learn how any particular piece of software worked under the hood and make the tweaks I would need to make, I could just write the entire thing myself.
I should point out, my attitude comes from having to twist both WordPress (which I loathe for several reasons) and other forum software to do particular things for clients that couldn’t be addressed by plugins. Essentially changing and working against the core functionality of the software. I’d rather just use a solid framework like Symfony or Laravel and create something tailored to their needs. It’s just faster for me.
