It <em>should</em> be something that anyone with basic technical knowledge can download, install, customize, and use. I haven't felt too much trouble customizing Wordpress, but then again, I am a professional web developer. The flipside of this complaint is among companies who want a blog but think that if they choose something like Wordpress, it should be very cheap or totally free. Well, the fact is that whether the software is free or not, you still have to pay some expert to make it work for you. That's the way every technology is. Sorry. If they made cars free, mechanics would make a lot more money. There is something illusive about “free” software.

]]> Comment on Two Wordpress blogs, one site by Natalie http://figure-w.co.uk/two-wordpress-blogs-one-site/comment-page-1/#comment-70526 Natalie Sat, 06 Mar 2010 22:07:18 +0000 http://likemind.co.uk/journal/two-wordpress-blogs-one-site/#comment-70526 Jules, I'm not sure if I understand exactly what you're wanting to do, but in Wordpress, I've put an RSS widget into my side bar, and filled it in with the feed URL from another site of mine. This way, every time I update Site A blog, it shows up in the side bar of Site B. I'm not sure if it will allow for partial view, but hope this helps.
