Well at least we'll always have our own websites (too outdated comicpress noises) yeah.

Are you a comic creator looking to jump from Webtoons to your own website? I'm offering $500 quick and easy website creation using the Comicpress theme. HMU in DMs if interested!

I went ahead and supported this because I used to have a website that ran on WordPress(ComicPress) and I hated it...
This sounds like a good alternative. I hope that I can run my future website with this...

i swear there was a point in time when you could just make a website for your webcomic using comicpress or something and it didn't cost hundreds of fucking dollars in bullshit subscription fees

- The "tapping the empty navigation corners to get the hovertext" may have been a ComicPress-specific functionality! Currently you can get the hovertext by tapping and holding on the comic.

will look into possibility of reimplementing

A basic webcomic website is the easiest thing in the world to make with a webcomic plugin. I have used ComicPress and Toocheke.

Both are fairly simple to figure out and WordPress installs the whole thing for you.

I get my hosting through Bluehost, but there's a lot of options out there that vary.

Website redesign is live!

The Bad Machinery site has had a major spruce-up. I've been working on this for ages. AGES. There are a few story banners still to design but I'll get to them. Hopefully everything works, but I'm bound to have messed up somewhere. I was finally able to discard the ancient…

The Bad Machinery site has had a major spruce-up. I've been working on this for ages. AGES. There are a few story banners still to design but I'll get to them. Hopefully everything works, but I'm bound to have messed up somewhere. I was finally able to discard the ancient ComicPress theme, and I've done my best to make things as easy to use as possible. I'll keep an eye out for anything that immediately collapses.

This might be a godsend! I remember trying WordPress/ComicPress for my fan comics. It was a PAIN! Made me give up making a site for my comics altogether. If this project works out, I'd love to use it for my comics. I think it might be worth checking out!

FYI, ComicPress hasn't been updated in several years and breaks with the newest versions of Wordpress, so please take it out of your list of suggestions!

From experience, for creators starting a new comic site in 2025, Toocheke is the Wordpress theme/plugin to use.
January 16, 2025 at 7:40 PM
Neat, a modern Comicpress.
December 16, 2025 at 8:53 PM
Also, doesn't have to be ComicPress/Easel. We can discuss!
September 22, 2026 at 4:03 PM
Sooo bad news, the Cans of Beans site is totally borked. I updated Wordpress not knowing it was no longer compatible with ComicPress so the whole website is now messed up

While I'm trying to fix my site, the good news is that it's totally archived! Read it here! web.archive.org/web/20250715...

just sliding this over, Toocheke does have a built in method for importing from Comic Easel!

if you're curious-- use the comicpress archive shortcode, make the font size on every page 0pt, make a counter that resets every time there's a new list, and then create an entirely new button with the counter in it, :after the invisible real text but within the same <a>

we call it efficiency
March 15, 2025 at 3:31 PM
Does anyone know how to fix this in comicpress(or is it a wordpress issue?)
I've been passively looking for months and haven't found it yet. I'd like the text not to be rubbing cheeks with the border.
August 17, 2024 at 10:35 PM
do you have plans for a tool to migrate existing wordpress/comicpress websites to it? if that's possible of course
December 29, 2025 at 11:11 PM
I think most webcomic artists back in the day just used the Comicpress plugin for Wordpress.
July 8, 2025 at 5:44 AM
Like I mentioned, Webtoon and Tapas were places I was considering but now I'm not so sure anymore.

And what kind of web tools do I even use? Is comicpress/WordPress still a thing?
April 26, 2024 at 8:52 PM
of course, they weren't required to release or maintain ComicControl, but comic management systems have a long history of being released and then abandoned (see: Comicpress, Grawlix, etc.)
January 12, 2026 at 4:12 PM
So if you were already following me and were wondering what I have been up to for the past several months, the answer is upscaling our entire archive, finishing up an ebook and re-learning css/HTML as I prepare to switch from comicpress to toocheke. I promise I am not dead!

Trying to build a webcomic site without ComicPress (hasn't been updated since 2018-- I'm FaceBook friends with the dev but I don't want to bother him) is a hassle and a half, I tell you what
July 18, 2024 at 4:41 AM
Blugh, I think ComicPress is finally past usability. I can't access half the settings any more and it hasn't been updated in like seven or eight years. Time to move on, I guess
