About this episode

Marie and Chris discuss their continued use of WordPress for various functions at CodePen.

Marie and Chris hop on CodePen Radio for a little chat on how we're still happily using WordPress for a variety of things here on CodePen. We've got it hosted on a subdomain and on a different (WordPress-specific) hosting plan than our main monorepo, so it has its own deployment process and such. We use WordPress for our blog, where this very podcast is published, because WordPress handles RSS well, and a podcast is an RSS feed with an audio file. We also, quite importantly, use it for our docs. For 2.0, we re-wrote the docs and used a Custom Post Type in WordPress to organize them, which feels much more organized. Time Jumps Links
