A lot of big websites run on Wordpress. Modifying the WP core is a very bad idea, you want less maintenance, not more.
How can you be sure the code is atrocious and wasteful? If it does something useful, you can optimize later. You don't need investors or a co-founder at this point. Get your prototype out there, Wordpress stuff seems to sell itself these days.
I will take a look at your code if you like and give you a technical opinion on how bad it is or not. Check out my profile for contact info,
- blacksheepcode 16y agoOh, well, it was just a few little changes to the core. Easy to update the installation and make them again I'm sure. Then again, I'm not experienced. You are right though, I can't be sure that it is atrocious and wasteful. I assume that web content management systems carry a lot of baggage with them. Though, I am aware that I am not using everything WordPress offers me and that it is not a fully optimized site, and you point that out. Your response is encouraging, as is this article at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1689751 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1689751 I stumbled across. Thank you very much!
- pacomerh 16y agoHe's right though, get your idea rolling first, doesn't matter if the code is not perfect, the point is to see it working and get people interested. Later you can worry about getting it clean sharp.
