Live static site from video (w/ all the instructions): staticwebsite-ay6.pages.dev
Recent events in WP page builder-land have highlighted a sense a uncertainty about where to go - but I am not here to alarm you, i am here to give you peace of mind. So what happened? A significant remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability impacted popular page builders, compromising tens of thousands of websites. Additionally, CWICLY, a professional page builder, announced its discontinuation, leaving users unsure about their website's future.
But can static websites offer a solution? Unlike dynamic sites, static websites serve pre-rendered HTML files, reducing the attack surface and mitigating server-side vulnerabilities like RCE. While static sites aren't immune, they provide a solid security foundation with limited interaction points and no dynamic code execution.

Great tutorial Brendan. I'd love to see a complete walkthrough for GIT control and how to push updates. ;)

@BrendanOConnellWP 4 месяца назад

good reminder, i'll add it to my list. it's a good skill to have on hand as it certainly gives you more control than the method in this vid

great info. I didnt realise exporting a static site was so simple.

Yeah! Pretty straight forward to do now

@@digwillhachi awesome to hear! that makes the time i spend making these videso worth it! static hosting will wrok well for lots of sites, but wont work for lots of sites, specifically, any dynamic data! make sure you test it and only use it on simple sites

Great, I wish we could see more of such static alternatives :)

@BrendanOConnellWP 4 месяца назад

yes, i've traditionally done it just on cpanel but curious how others handle it. seems like good solution for a remarkably high # of websites that just need contact forms and have content.

@michaelfoerster3364 4 месяца назад

@@BrendanOConnellWP exactly, i am wondering how it works with bricks builder and metabox....it would be great for simple websites with it; give access to WP behind firewall and export it every time as the content updates

@BrendanOConnellWP 4 месяца назад

you know, i didnt even check if the dynamic data from metabox would work on static...shoulda done that in the vid. i'm gonna check really quick and let you know

@BrendanOConnellWP 4 месяца назад

yeah, confirming it doesnt render dynamic content from acf/mb, which makes sense, but wanted to confirm again for you. tried with pagination and just a post query with 3 posts, nothing else dynamic

4:40 that quirk you notice is a bug that they still havn't properly fixed. I am facing the same with pro version in a live site.

@BrendanOConnellWP 3 месяца назад

Ah thanks for the info. Yes I am getting it on every site I try it on, and I got pro version too. Usually just logging in and out does the trick for me, sometimes have to wait a little longer

free hosting! can't beat that. setting it up thru github isn't too bad either.

So contact form 7 will not work when using simply static?

@BrendanOConnellWP 2 месяца назад

i believe with the pro version, cf7 integrates pretty directly, but i havent tried it.

Concerns about security are prompting individuals to reassess their stance on Webflow.

@BrendanOConnellWP 4 месяца назад

webflow is something i've only following at a cursory level as i'm just so used to the open nature of WP w/ different themes and plugin stacks, etc. theyve got an amazing product. new UI soon?

@bluetheredpanda 4 месяца назад

To me they still have the best controls of any visual CSS tool in the industry (I actually wish Bricks took more inspiration from them). It's neat, compact, and looks amazing. Other than that… I find it limiting and expensive. I'm especially bothered by two aspects: - the limits around CSS selectors (and I'm really not a fan of their combo classes concept). - the limitations around integrating other systems (JS plugins, external tools, etc) with it. Given how technical you seem to be based on some videos and some posts I've seen you share in the community, I get the feeling you’ll probably be frustrated for similar reasons as well, but you might want to try a quick build to see what it's like @@BrendanOConnellWP

@BrendanOConnellWP 4 месяца назад

thanks for sharing that. that is basically my impression. i've used it to build simple site to get the feeling. i am with you that some of the UI stuff can definitely benefit bricks. they have a great education pipeline and other creators which is hugely beneficial

So in Wordpress if I am using contact form 7 it will not work using simply static?
