Susan, I use Coda by Panic.com but I hand code my pages. You can preview the pages to see what you will get but it doesn't code for you. That's why I haven't made any suggestions... I have not tried either Blue Griffon or Aloha. You may want to take a look at the TNGenWeb counties (as well as the state site). 77 of their counties are done using various WordPress Themes... The have static pages as well as associated blog pages for the more variable sections and they are very WYSIWYG. I was really impressed with the "drag and drop" menu making features I saw in action. You can use free themes or purchase some with more features. The beauty is that you can start free and then decide later to upgrade and everything transfers. If you find yourself interested Taneya Koonce <TNSC@tngenweb.org>, the TNGenWeb State Coordinator, is a real fan of WordPress and our own Jane Colmenares <evancol@yahoo.com> is their Assistant State coordinator, so she might have some words of wisdom for you.

1) I think someone may have said, but be sure to do a full uninstall (not the same as deleting it) before reinstalling an older version. 2) If anyone is interested... MS has discontinued Expression Web (FrontPage), and you can download the current version for free at http://microsoft.com. Just be aware it will never be updated or supported. 3) If you use WP, be *absolutely certain* you keep all pages current and up to date. That includes themes and such that are not active. WP is fairly easily hacked if not kept up!! jimmy

I like to work at code level also. I'm on a MacBook Pro and use BBEdit. WSIWYG usually copies and pastes about 10X more code than is needed. Gale Gorman (Robertson Co.)

Gale, is using Code complicated? Will it take me a lot of time to learn? On Jun 17, 2013, at 10:17 PM, GALE GORMAN <gale_gorman@me.com> wrote: > I like to work at code level also.
