RE: Lessons learned from my WordPress and Steempress setup
I was thinking of doing this, though I want to think of all the simpler options before deciding that making a full fledged wordpress page is what I want.
So this post was like a detailed plan of what was messy ideas in my head, glad I found it.
Hi @ahmadmanga, I really can't recommend WordPress highly enough. Basically a whole bunch of developers have done most of the back-end work for you, and you just have to pull the pieces together. I have to say, I don't think PDFs of your previous posts have a lot of appeal. And it won't be an enriching process for you to deal with that either. But I do wish you luck in your exploration! You'll figure out the right thing in the end, I'm sure.
Yeah, I agree... Wix is better suited (and easier) to have the look and feel I wanted... But most of the options I want are on the paid plans. Wordpress can do way more, cheaper.
By the way I made a PDF version of my Fiftywords entries if you're interested, I think I did a good job in it. But you're right, the only 'old' posts I find a meaning in making PDF version for, are the stories, as in "collecting them in anthologies."
Well you’re well on your way to creating a collection to publish on Amazon, then! 😊
Thanks, that's my end goal.
I really wish you download the file and give me your opinion though... I feel the first pages and the Afterword need some changes, I'm not sure if they're even needed for a book like this.
Also, as someone who have read my fiftywords at the time of posting, I'm interested in your opinion on how they feel without the author comments I usually put them together with.
I can promise I will try to find time! I am in a scramble to leave on vacation tomorrow and where I am going I will have very spotty internet. I will let you know once I find the opportunity to do that. You’re on Discord, right?
Yup, meet you on Discord :)
