    What I am liking about EE is there are often numerous ways to achieve a goal. Not 'hacks', not necessarily right and wrong, just flexibility.

    So far I have done everything I need without any 3rd party add-ons. I know some might make a task easier, but I like sticking to the base install where possible to avoid any issues down the line when updating etc.

    • you're beginning to convince me.... but does EE have similar plug-in upgrade surprises as WP?vaxorcist
    • From what I understand, far less, as it's a much tighter, focused community.ETM
    • I just in general prefer to avoid plugins/add-ons unless required.ETM
    • If interested, this is the general recommended book to start out:
