It’s not a complaint as I use WordPress myself on this site but sometimes I’m just surprised how many people come to me for something and they’ve got a WordPress install. I’ve been working with a Baton Rouge Sign company who has a website that’s “just a website” and it runs WordPress. People seem to use it as a quick CMS of choice for just about any situation and it certainly does work well. Even Microsoft pushes WordPress in their web platform installer for developers to consider.
The bad side of this is often developers just setup and forget these installations. So a business owner calls me in and I’m facing a version of WordPress completely out of date with multiple out of date plugins installed. Most updates that come out are around security which means over time site owners become more and more susceptible to hacks. So I guess if I could complain about WordPress it’d be that an automated mechanism for notifying an owner concerning updates would be nice and doable. Heck it might exist as a plugin I just haven’t looked it up yet.
Ok mini rant/excuse to blog over.
