And you've never been in the situation of needing help to get something going on Windows and had trouble getting the right advice on something new? Let's get real here. I only run Windows in a virtual machine and still have problems every week with something or other. So you're either very very lucky or being disingenuous.

Frankly I think Aaron was probably asking in the wrong place to begin with. The Zend forum threads related to Wordpress, or the Wordpress forums might have yielded better results - and certainly less controversy!

The problem that Aaron faces arises not because of a bad platform choice - it is a perfectly valid choice if using PHP on i for other reasons and/or you need to simply integrate IBM i data into the Wordpress output. His problem is simply that, as of today, there is insufficient experience with running the tool on the latest PHP. Most people who have Wordpress experience on IBM i gained that experience with Zend Core which with its double-Apache fun and games was a very different animal. In six months this question would get asked and answered in 5 minutes.

As an aside to Aaron, have you tried your BP channel? You should be able to get some results that way I'd have thought.
