Hi it’s worth noting that the WP interface has grown so much it’s now a complete dog to load (there are what? seven or eight linked javascript calls?).

Anyhoo I’m using WP for a huge site (50+ very active authors, 7K+ posts and growing rapidly) and have found a lot of user-bugs are created by the sluggish rendering.

So I’ve written a little css that I call (I’ve edited header.php to add the link tag) which compresses the top menus to nothing and then hides most bits of the interface we don’t need.

The requests are still there and the browser still has to build the DOM tree but most of the advanced features are set to display:none;

I’ve found this really increases the “snappiness” of the app.

My stylesheet is (temporarily) hosted here:

I’d be curious to hear of other users doing the same or adapting the above to their own needs.

All the best :-)

I completely agree. Sure, platforms like Joomla or Drupal can do things that you'd be hard pushed to achieve in Wordpress, but unless you need those specific features then why not use Wordpress? It's very stable, easy to install, use and extend and it's very well supported with lots of plugins. Like you I love the Wordpress platform which is why I now use it almost exclusively. If anyone wants to know how to setup a CMS style site using wordpress see my Wordpress as CMS tutorial. Bill
