Wordpress and Claude Code
Just curious if anyone else has this problem. My other company sites I made for myself pre-AI are all wordpress. Work, great, look good. No reason to switch out wordpress.
But laziness and AI kicked in so once Claude Code absorbed my entire digital existence through a guardrail free, local terminal instance of itself, connected to various servers, I just told it to go sort out the WP sites. Broke one immediately, my fault, my custom CSS scattered around did it.
But I let it assume management making whatever changes needed. They are mostly static white-collar sites.
Anyway, my about page on one of them is completely wrong. So I went in manually to fix it. The page that displays and the page with correct slug and post # ID in WP are completely different. I have no idea what it did. To fix it I essentially had to make "about2" and redirect the menu lol.
There is also a menu item that it hard coded in so it doesn't even display in the menu editor. I asked it to use a logo for a branded software as it's menu selection so it hacked it in. Looks fine but... lol.
So, word to the wise. Keep building wordpress manually and why not? It is wordpress.
