Sophos has been around for a very long time. I don't understand how an anti-virus company could not take action to prevent this time of thing from happening.

1) Why don't they have a secure hash of each of the files and add that to a whitelist of files never to delete?

2) "You want to ensure your secondary option (when cleanup is not available or does not work) to be set to 'deny access' and not delete or move." Is this not the default configuration?

The website was showing a 404. It works now...

plnkr.co appears to be offline

I'm in a similar situation (quit my job, building a startup), but I choose Taiwan.

Most every other CMS would not be suitable for disabled users, colour blind users, those not using a mouse.. (unfortunately).

> "those not using a desktop PC"

Wordpress had a pretty nice official mobile interface.

> "those using a microsoft browser, especially those using IE6 or IE7"

IE6 is not supported by most website. Facebook recently stopped supporting IE7. IE8+ works fine.

There is no basis for this comment.

I am not sure why we are giving this author this much attention.

"Unable to change content types 2) Funneled into the "Blog" post type, which is simply called "Posts", with no easy way to kill this off and create your own.."

I do not understand. Wordpress can certainly use custom content types.

I have used Wordpress extensively for any dozens of websites.

"The straw the that broke the camel’s back? My Account Manager: How can we claim that [WordPress] is the CMS for our clients, when you need the capability to edit ANY content on the website simply to mark a comment as spam?"

1) That generally makes sense. You need the ability to edit content in order to edit content (in this case, comments).

2) I have never had a client require a user account which can edit comments but not edit content. This is an extreme edge case.

Wordpress has exploded in popularity largely because of its ease of use. When you start to build a system which incorporates every possible feature to please every user, it will start to suck.

If you have a requirement that is not served with Wordpress (1) built it as a plugin or (2) use another system like Drupal. It is that simple.

I'm disappointed to see such harsh, judgmental attitudes with regards to this close-knit and supportive company culture. With the countless stories of poor management and toxic work environments, we should applaud and encourage companies that do their best to respect employees. Why such hostility?

Filemaker is similar to Hypercard.. http://www.filemaker.com/

Hi,

Sounds like a great idea!
