Running a newspaper on WordPress

I’m indebted to Martin Stabe (and indeed, Matt Mullenweg) for spotting that the Black Country Express and Star website is built in WordPress. Further evidence, if it were needed (and I’m not sure it were), that there’s very little you can’t do with WordPress. I’d be interested in a write-up of the plugins and hacks they’ve implemented to get it looking so newspaper-y, if anyone’s reading this…

  1. As far as I am aware, the Shropshire Star has been running on WordPress for a good year, I think they must be part of the same group as the Express & Star.

  2. Le Monde’s subscriber blogs are based on WPMU; but I think the main Le Monde site is still Vignette (judging by all the commas in the URLs).
