MediaWiki has been the opposite experience. Well architected, the features/functions are better, the default theme is close to what I was looking for (and I can easily program their template engine), and I was able to generate my own mobile friendly design without too much effort. And it's all about transclusion (including one piece of text, in many places) and references. Perfect for what I want. | MediaWiki has been the opposite experience.

New Layout I recently moved iGeek from a WordPress site to a MediaWiki (Wikipedia) engine. I put a few articles I rewrote at the bottom of this page. But there are dozens I rewrote and many more added. Explore the sections to the left, or search for topics/issues/articles. I detested WordPress with a blinding passion, from features, to code, to templates. Plus I'd setup auto-syncing with my Evernote account, and that plug-in was a disaster. When it sync'd it was great, then it fell out of sync, and would break or replicate articles dozens of times. WordPress is basically write-only memory: you can add articles in, but the experience means once they scroll off the bottom of a blog, no one wants to search for articles. Fine for a diary (assuming anyone cares). But not great for information architecture. MediaWiki has been the opposite experience. Well architected, the features/functions are better, the default theme is close to what I was looking for (and I can easily program their template engine), and I was able to generate my own mobile friendly design without too much effort. And it's all about transclusion (including one piece of text, in many places) and references. Perfect for what I want. |
