Whird features

Whird’s main feature is in its use of the Markdown text-to-HTML formatting syntax. All posts and pages can be written using Markdown or HTML, or a mixture of both. Whird is designed around the idea that there are 2 types of content, those being date sensitive blog posts which get archived once written, and wiki style pages which may have many edits and change over time.

  • Secure three-factor login authentication with protection against brute force attacks
  • Customisable themes
  • Outputs HTML5 by default
  • Support for static and dynamic pages, or a mixture of both

  • Tagging of posts and pages
  • Searching of posts and pages
  • Per page/post custom CSS
