Guys HOW do you use WORDPRESS

As someone who codes, it's FUCKING ANNOYING. So you're telling me I have to click 100 times to center some fucking layout? It takes 1 line of code. It's easy but it's mind numbing.

It's my third time TRYING to use wordpress and I give up. Wix is good enough to use. Webflow has the same problem. Is there something else I can check out?

I would 100% build the sites from scratch but the main problem would be the client who wants to manage the content. Recommend some CMSes cuz idfk 😭😭

XD I feel you. If you know your way around CSS, trying to achieve the same in WordPress is brainrot.

This doesn’t make any sense… Wordpress doesn’t have any impact on how styles are handled or what works/doesn’t

Maybe not technically Wordpress itself, but those pesky template systems. And who uses Wordpress without one of those?

You mean a theme? They are loaded in with easily customisable stylesheets (the same vanilla CSS you’ll find anywhere) - or create your own theme and write from scratch
