Sad…but I think it’s time to move…Īnd if they think this simple API is not important, they seriously imagine that a simple white box in my web browser can replace a full text editor designed for better writing like Office Word? Writing proper content is the most important thing on a CMS or website today. I will move to Craft or just anything else open source because it seems Expression Engine is abandonware software now.Īlmost none of their add-ons or plugins even work now, and I don’t refer to third party stuff but the ones that officially come with their software and are even in their own documentation. They announced v6 as some major update and I don’t see anything that even considers calling that a major upgrade, all they did is just improve the user interface which takes a week for a one-person designer, not months. I also contacted them before and since I own some paid modules from them, and they usually take 2 weeks to reply by email. If this is how they support their product imagine starting a commercial business on EE and then expecting paid support from them. I’m considering moving after years out of EE because I have no trust on the new owners or developers. It’s not better at anything over other free software. I’m not even sure what EE does better now, blog? No. Most people probably are using WordPress for blogging which supports everything. If that is how they maintain their official modules you can completely forget they will update a tiny plugin like the Meta weblog API. On their own add-on page it said was last updated 5 years ago. I don’t have any hopes for them to fix this now when they don’t even bother to update their main modules like the forums or the wiki. The best I got was on Slack that they would fix it on the next release, that was over a year ago. The new owners will not reply a single post on this forum that talks about this bug because they don’t care about fixing it. I have done everything that is possible human on my side. I have posted this here in the forums multiple times in the past 2 years, I have posted this on Slack, I have contacted them. I would be ashamed to ship the add-on officially with their software that is not working for years and it was reported to them more than once. I used MS Word in the past, and I was sure there was some issue with their API but after testing over 10 other pieces of software that are compatible with the API not one worked. I have tested every possible Blog software with that API and none at a single one worked. You are correct, this is broken since v4 (years now).
