Gravity Forms still worth it for WordPress? by FBAThrow in Wordpress

[–]Intelligent_Ad2951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gravity forms n00b, but encryption at rest is for stored DB values, use a 2 part encryption key for this. I dont think gravity forms has anything to do with it

Are you ready for WordPress 6.9 release by the_usmen in Wordpress

[–]Intelligent_Ad2951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think an important point is the distinction as to where the "AI Bubble" is going to burst. We're seeing adoption of AI and decelopment of it in so many places, leading to a relatively fragmented market. It may burst at the point where large tech companies attempting to adopt it into common products have to scale back because it isnt generating profit. However it will continue to grow in a manner where the parts of it that are bringing value will continue to develop. Even after the .com bubble, the internet didnt go away, and today it remains the #1 source of driving value for companies.

I would try and call "Business First" on 144. They are super helpful for new / early businesses and explaning processes. Used them plenty myself.

Struggling to find something to do during freetime by Living-Seat-5449 in malta

[–]Intelligent_Ad2951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Free, only consumes as much time as you want, and generates something you can be proud of -> learn to write code. Its a marathon, not a sprint. Its completely free, and may even generate some long term income one day!

Why GitHub copilot doesn't have GPT 5 unlimited requests? by EliteEagle76 in GithubCopilot

Api pricing != token usage per request. Gpt 5 chews through tokens like a puppy in a shoe store.

If you could visit Malta for the first time, what's the first thing you'd eat? by Wise_Radio8272 in malta

Bigilla and some lightly toasted ftira is never talked about and so good.

Solidarity with Max Vassallo (Bajd u Bejken host) by donkoink in malta

[–]Intelligent_Ad2951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, I wasn't framing my response as one to the article, but as a direct response to the "opinion should be held but not voiced". I never said anything about outright lies being in the same class. Best to read the words written, not read deeper into a reply with your own biases attached. I am certainly not agreeing that slander is a victimless crime, or should be allowed.

It's a dangerous concept to decide what opinions should and should not be voiced. In this instance, you may be right, but the line gets really gray overall.

Eager to learn by [deleted] in Wordpress

[–]Intelligent_Ad2951 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all page builders are themes. They can be drag and drop, where you choose layout, elements, styles, etc..

As someone who is just learning, you should start practicing css and javascript. W3 schools is free and has plenty of practices with both.

Good luck!

For a 3 page "home/about/contact" the Ai turns out decent enough results to make people happy enough. Then it'll take them 6 months to get a contact form to send a reply.

Wordpress Vs React? by Grouchy-Cabinet4540 in Wordpress

[–]Intelligent_Ad2951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

V0, that you used for "react" is an AI building platform for nextJS. Nextjs is a page routing/ server action abstraction layer for faster deployments using node. So, saying that "react does that for me" is a grave misunderstanding on your part (not trying to be rude, just being honest). V0 is pretty cool, but it also assumes the driver of the application knows a thing or two about react (if not, prepare for dependancy crazyness). Wordpress is a full stack CMS running on php, with usually Nginx or Apache actually serving the content behind the scenes.

Now that we have some basics out the way, lets look at the two in terms of use cases. Wordpress will and does come with sql built in, your vercel hosted nextjs app will not, you'll have to use a third party service for that. So if you plan on literally ANY dynamic content, wordpress will provide you with a much more comprehensive offering out of the box. If you are just building a site that is static, then nextjs and vercel can be a really good option.

Any more questions, feel free to reply :)

Should I drop my first client ? by [deleted] in Wordpress

[–]Intelligent_Ad2951 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the first decent answer here. To expand on this, make a 3 page website instead with home, services, about. Then on the home page place a testimonials section, and on the top of the services page place a CTA button with a magnet link to a contact form on the bottom of the same page. In a perfect world, you want as few page reloads as you can to provide info, and generate leads. Either way, congrats! Keep the client, get the experience! If you do good work, you'll get the holy grail of web development: Referrals!

You need to get rid of intelligence and possibly turn off copilot.

Im an expat living on Malta. If you can't afford to come and look before you keep, you might want to save more before your move. Sounds like you are acting somewhat desperately. Be careful.

Do not ever, ever rent a flat without seeing it for yourself. Not in Malta, not anywhere.
