Hi Sunseeker and welcome to Wappler !
My company’s primary website currently uses Wordpress as well so I can understand your concerns and I can try to address some of what you mention.
A. Security. Wappler uses two different types of security. The Security Restrict protects the database tables so that people can not access them unless they have the appropriate permissions. The second is the Security Enforcer which protects individual pages. The permissions are whatever you set them to be and there are several ways that you can set them up. I would recommend watching @Hyperbytes’ (Brian) webinars so you can see how to go about that. https://www.twitch.tv/thewapplertrainer/videos Additionally, you wouldn’t have to worry about hackers or mean people accessing xmlrpc.php anymore because with Wappler, you can customize the login form name and make it harder for people to try to hack because the login form name and URL would not be well-known. While I do not remember how Wordpress encrypts passwords, I know with Wappler, you can customize the encryption with your own salt phrase. Security is also enhanced with Wappler because unlike with Wordpress, you would not need to rely on third-party developers to fix any plugin exploits.
B. I have found that I can scale my company’s website significantly with Wappler, more than I ever could with Wordpress. Wappler allows you to create your own custom queries and webflow, not confined by any structure restraints like Wordpress.
C. I have not had the opportunity to integrate YouTube or Vimeo as of yet, however, I do not think it would be an issue because Wappler contains both a background video component and foreground video component.
D. There is an in-depth discussion on blogs and forums at Blog Tutorial Needed!, I will be looking at incorporating it into my company’s website later this year.
E. As @ben mentioned, RSS feeds are really a think of the past, but I believe they can be converted into a JSON format that can be used in Wappler.
F. We use mail-chimp as well and it is possible to integrate it into Wappler using mail-chimp’s API.
G. With Wappler, you can use modals (I am very very fond of them) to display a newsletter sign-up form.
H. With the notification and browser components, I believe you can set messages about cookie acceptance and GDPR compliance.
J. Affiliate tracking is a good question. I believe that is also possible, however, I have not personally done it.
K. Not sure what you mean on this.
L. I would recommend utilizing Google Analytics for this.
M. Facebook integration would be done through the Wappler API and Facebook Application creation.
N. I’m not sure about this.
O. Definitely, you can set up any kind of search that you want on your website.
P. Linking is as easy as a few clicks or you can set it up dynamically based on the database entries.
Q. Sponsorship could easily be setup with database entries and image components. See https://www.twitch.tv/thewapplertrainer/videos
R. Definitely through Font Awesome and linking the icons.
S. Same as above.
T. Yes, you can add a print to function to any button.
U. You can incorporate the use of an API for sharing of articles. It would just depend on how you want to set it up.
V. Wappler does not host websites, but any host provider you have should be able to utilize your Wappler website.
W. I have had no issues with any browsers.
X. While I have not worked with this yet, I do know Wappler is capable of displaying your website on any computer, tablet, or mobile device.
Z. Payment acceptance would be determined by whatever methods you set up.
While there is a learning curve to Wappler, like any program, I am confident you would be able to pick it up easily and convert your current wordpress website into a wappler website.
