Editing Wordpress is a Pain in the Butt.

My fabulous partner is editing her Wordpress site using WP’s own UX. It is an incredible pain in the butt, the depth of menus is the Marianas trench of drill-downs. I am utterly blessed to be using Red Sweater’s MarsEdit, but it’s MacOS only.
I’m a little flabbergasted at how difficult it is to use WP’s own editing. Is suspect that it’s all due to their need to be 100% browser-based. And none of the browsers can standardize on what will do what, only that they must make life impossible for their competitor. (Ooooh, you chromies, when the goog tires of its insufficient shareholder value, it will be plussed out of existence in an eyeblink.) Plus I think the OS behavior rules probably kill various classes of options. I can recall MacOS pre-right-clicking, so popups and drop down limitations probably really kill the options.
Anyway, Get yourself a desktop editor of some kind for the day-to-day content creation. It really helps.
