I won’t tell you how much I dislike Wordpress right now. Suffice it to say that the last post took some time and a couple of hard words to recover.

I have three questions, basically, and since the chance of any of my (few) readers being a Wordpress developer is very slim (not to say nonexistent), they will have to be rhetorical.

- Why doesn’t the damn thing give any kind of notice when you click ‘Delete’ on the post managing page? What if you click it accidentally? (Yes, yes, I did, but it’s very close to the ‘Edit’ button.)

- When trying to post again, why is the damn thing unable to save and publish a new post with the same title as the old one (i.e. a completely identical post)?

- Why, when you’ve finally rediscovered the original post in your web browser cache (or similar) won’t the damn thing publish it in an edited form (i.e. not completely identical) until you’ve RELOADED the damn post-writing page? (It just pretends to save and publish, but really, laughs evilly and deletes all text from the screen)

Arrrgh.

Oh, and Wordpress? You know you’ll always be my baby, I just don’t like it when you eat my posts and then laugh evilly about it. Be nice, and I’ll keep you.
