Hi guys
I have Wordpress installed on my vps and it is has been used to develop a couple of websites. I now want to create new websites using Composr - fed up with Wordpress…
Can I safely install Composr on my vps along with Wordpress?
Many thanks
Daren

Hey, of course :).

You'll need to put them on different directories, but that's obvious anyway.


Become a fan of Composr on Facebook or add me as a friend. Add me on on Mastodon. Follow me on Minds (where I am most active). Support me on Patreon

Was I helpful?
  • If not, please let us know how we can do better (please try and propose any bigger ideas in such a way that they are fundable and scalable).
  • If so, please let others know about Composr whenever you see the opportunity or support me on Patreon.
  • If my reply is too Vulcan or expressed too much in business-strategy terms, and not particularly personal, I apologise. As a company & project maintainer, time is very limited to me, so usually when I write a reply I try and make it generic advice to all readers. I'm also naturally a joined-up thinker, so I always express my thoughts in combined business and technical terms. I recognise not everyone likes that, don't let my Vulcan-thinking stop you enjoying Composr on fun personal projects.
  • If my response can inspire a community tutorial, that's a great way of giving back to the project as a user.

Hey hey another ex Wordpress user here who switched to ocPortal / Composr CMS. ^^

  • Need support for version 10? The core development team is no-longer offering it for free (unless it's a critical bug that breaks your entire site or a serious security hole). Please consider hiring me instead if you need v10 support or a non-critical bug fix. Or, ask the community in the forums!
  • Do you enjoy Composr? Please consider contributing your talent to the project or recommending Composr to others. Even small contributions make a big impact in the Composr community.
  • Do you have feedback for us? You can report bugs, suggest features, or give feedback on the Free support options page.
  • Do you need professional service with your Composr website? Please consider contracting me for your needs through my company, PDStig, LLC. Doing so will also help fund Composr development.
  • Want to watch live streams of me developing Composr CMS? Please subscribe to me on Twitch to be notified when I stream. Composr development streams are usually spontaneous / not scheduled in advance as work priorities come first.

WordPress made my head hurt, like trying to bake a cake with your hands tied behind your back and then you realise your oven is broken and you probably need sectioning for your own safety. I don't see why it's so popular. Good for blogs, terrible for anything else really. Most people want to do everything else with it though.

Welcome to rehab Daren.

Actually, I do see why it's so popular. It's all the themes and addons, but they're partly what drove me crazy and drove me away. Too many choices, none of them right and lots of compatibility issues. Thankfully, my experience using WordPress was short lived. I then moved onto MemHT which wasn't bad at all considering it's a single developer, but Composr blows it out of the water for features and flexibility.
