SimplerStatic.com website needs content
Hi there,
I am just browsing through all you static WP options and loving it.
Also followed your link to https://wordpress.org/plugins/simply-static/ It got an update on Dec 20 - seems like a minor dependency update.
But maybe it is a good chance to check in with the developer. You linked simply static in a couple of documentation sites - and if the developer has fresh interest in his plugin that might be worth knowing.
I have come across static generators for WordPress a couple of times now, but stayed with caching. ... I slowly feel the time is ready for me to get back to static solution. I have the impression you are an one person army (with some support) making sure, there have been and will be solutions to go static with WordPress. That's impressive!
Hi @ibes,
Oh, very interesting! It seems the Simply Static plugin on wp.org has been taken over, it was originally developed and maintained by Scott, before it got abandoned, so cool to see it possibly getting a refresh!
I'm a bit behind on updating SimplerStatic compared to the other SSGs, sorry, but will come back to it. There's a slightly different fork from the Grrr.tech people here and they've been adding some new features recently.
Haha, definitely feels a 1 person army at times, which is sometimes nice, often a limitation. But, many great open source contributions have helped advance all these plugins.
If you're able to run a local WordPress instance, I'm soon to release the next version of Lokl which I'm very excited about and it comes bundled with all of my SSGs and other tools for static site generation and local WP development. I dream of putting a video up about it very soon, but I can't promise a set date just yet.
I've got Alternatives listed on WP2Static homepage and always happy to help users go static, even if not using any of my maintained projects, so feel free to ping me for any issues you run into or questions.
Good luck and may your new year be full of static-y goodness!
... I have been browsing through the static wp community forum (didn't know that existed - woooho) and came across Lokl - will try it ASAP and am curious about all the different options.
Hopefully my way will turn more static and - through that - our digital ways will cross more often. So I can support your one person army from time to time (or make you more work through yet another edge idea to implement).
Feel free to close the issue.
Thanks @ibes, I look forward to it!
I'll rename this issue to remind me to put a website up, pretty sure I have that domain somewhere...
