Len

One week ago I migrated my personal site/blog from Plone to Wordpress. As such I’ve decided to write a small comparison of the 2 systems.

Let’s pun things in my context. A few years ago I’ve worked on a custom CMS implementation. The goal was to develop a product targeted for accesibility and simplicity of use. And, as it was the golden age it was decided to implement it from scratch using java. If you are wondering, the project is still used today but it was not possible to evolve as fast as the opensource projects and it lacks most of the sparkling features of today CMS systems.

The task ahead was to migrate my old plone based blog/site to a wordpress site. Here was a short list of items to keep in mind:

• plone import content (normal content ~ 600 entries, special:ContentPanels)
• keep old links still valid including RSS !?
• handle relative links in posts
• handle google (sitemap, adwords, analytics)
• design (find theme, modify css, logo/photo, php part)
• others (the photos, favicon, 404 page, pre style for code snippets)

Len.ro new generation. Ma tot gandesc de ceva timp sa migrez len.ro fie intr-o versiune noua de plone fie in wordpress. M-am decis sa aleg a doua varianta si sa merg pe wordpress. Asa ca vineri dimineata cum oricum nu puteam sa dorm mi-am facut clasicul todo si m-am apucat de munca distractie. Rezultatul e ce vedeti. Revin cu detalii tehnice in curand. Am reusit migrez aproape tot continutul si linkurile (sper). Vechiul len.ro inca mai e accesibil la old.len.ro.
