No luck with WordPress, will MODX be easier for me?

How are you getting on with your site? When I was organising the UK MODX meetup last June, many UK developers were no longer using MODX.

That said, there’s a few agencies:
GEL Studios in Swindon run by Graeme, Addido in Winchester, Maple Design in Hampshire.

And a few individuals: Keith(Buckinghamshire) and Simon (Cambridge) came along and there’s me (Julian) in Brighton.

You could likely contact Simon or Keith via the meetup group chat: MODX UK | Meetup

However, everyone else as you’ve seen is very helpful :+1:

Totally understand your frustration—WordPress and other builders can be tricky when they don’t match your vision. MODX is powerful but has a steeper learning curve and may be tough without coding experience. If you want full design control, hiring a reliable freelance developer (not an agency) might be your best bet. There’s also a MODX community forum for support, but learning it solo could be just as challenging.
