A website/blog engine.
Decent. I switched to this because I didn't really want to get into making my own thing. I can tolerate WordPress because of BlogText.
NOTE - WordPress is controlled by a dictatorship of tyrannical assholes. This won't matter to most people, but it will for some.

- Why I will move away from WordPress, guaranteed
- 2020-11-19 - 5.5.3 on PHP 7.3.21

403 Forbidden error ∞
I get an 403 Forbidden error when the source of a page contains $
and then a {
immediately afterward.
This has been reproduced with all plugins disabled.
This did not use to happen with earlier versions of WordPress, but I do not know when this problem was introduced.

WordPress 5.1 with PHP 7.3 "white screen of death" ∞
This was not solved for me by disabling themes or plugins, though maybe I didn't do the disabling correctly.
The problem is indicated in error_log
, which was a memory limit problem.
The solution is:
- edit
wp-config.php
- locate the "Happy Blogging" line
-
Above that line, add:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

- concluded porting WordPress

Finally found the problem with $ and then { causing "403 Forbidden" errors.
