If you’re happy with the load time, then your visitors should be, too. Server? Don’t worry about it until your host complains.

Nonetheless, if you post your code at https://pastebin.com , we may give better answer.

What you did is static website. WP is dynamic. With static website, if you change, say, the header in one page, you have to update every other page. In WP, you just need to make the change in one place.

Tell me which one is easier. Writing an entry for your static web site compared to writing an entry in WP?

So, yeah, dynamic website (WP) is harder to customize in the beginning but easier to maintain than static website.

Programming is tough. CSS is tough. That’s the reality and, please, face it.

You don’t want to learn? Well, then face it: You have to use available themes. Or pay someone to create customized theme.

Maybe you just need to execute the following after executing your other scripts

$wpdb->select(DB_NAME)

Yup, that’s it. Your content is too long for the white background you have. (https://normally.org/blog/wordpress/wp-content/themes/normal_design/img/csbbody-r.gif)

Anyway, you could just not use background image and just use background color and border and problem solved.

You may be able to use the following plugin–not sure, never used it myself.

You could create a new Page with a page template and use that as your homepage. The following plugin may be useful.

Now, in the page template, you need that loop thingy going on.

I guess you don’t really know what I told you the cause is. Here’s one fix for now. If it gives unintended behavior, just come back.

Find the following section in your css file
p {
line-height:1.75em;
}

Change that 1.75 to something else, say, .4

Well, we need to see the mess in order to clean it. Or at least describe “mess” better.

I think the WYSIWYG editor will give you a paragraph break when you press ENTER once.

Switch to non-WYSIWYG and pressing ENTER once will give you a line break (which is what you want) and pressing ENTER twice will give you a paragraph break.

Anyway, I may have misunderstood you. If so, I need a link to your site with the problematic post.

There is one initialization function that you need to call inside the loop before calling all other template tags.

foreach($posts as $post) :
setup_postdata($post);
// the_content(), etc
endforeach;


Yeah, what you said. And all that ajax thingy in the admin panels, definitely wordpress is a web 2.0 application. What’s the point of this question anyway?

If I would to reduce the number of queries, I would construct my own SQL query instead of using WP API (query_posts(), etc).

Or, this is a joke, get all posts with query_posts and display the posts you want with some mad php skill.

No. Is it the site or the browser that freezes?

If it happens only to your theme, may be you could zip it up and make it available for download so that someone could debug it with their wp installation.
