ClassicPress

What is ClassicPress?

ClassicPress is a community-led open source content management system for creators. It is a fork of WordPress 6.2 that preserves the TinyMCE classic editor as the default option. It is half the size of WordPress, contains less bloat improving performance, and has no block editor (Gutenberg/Full Site Editing).

Deployment on Moltern

Moltern provisions the database dependency, persistent storage, and initial ClassicPress admin account during deploy. After the service becomes ready, the generated URL opens an installed site instead of the database setup screen. Log in at /wp-login.php with username admin and the admin password you entered during deploy.

Deployment Variants

ClassicPress deploys with a managed MariaDB database dependency. Moltern wires the database connection during deploy, so you do not need to complete database setup manually.
