I have a love-hate relationship with wordpress.
I like it because it’s easy to install and set up.
On some of my funnel sites, I use Thrive Themes to build my landing pages, capture pages.
It’s a really great plugin and I highly recommend it for funnel building.
There are so many funnel building options out there but I choose to deploy whichever that works best and as quickly as possible.
But here on elihong.com , I use the default settings.
Running wordpress on a shared server is a nightmare, with resources being shared, and a ton of plugins installed, one thing is guaranteed, slower site performance.
The only problem with wordpress is when things break.
And it’s pretty easy to break things in wordpress.
One wrong installation, one extra plugin is all it takes.
But more recently, an outdated plugin or multiple outdated plugins was a cause of it.
If you find yourself having a jquery issue, or javascript not working on your plugins, there could be a couple of outdated plugins that needs updating.
That solved my problem painlessly and quickly.
It may or may not work for your site but if you have to troubleshoot, perhaps start here and work your way through all other potential problems.
I’ve set all my plugins moving forward to update automatically so that it would work fine accordingly.
