Oh I couldn't agree more. For whatever reason, our school's filters block Wordpress.org and the facilitator recommended Wix as an alternative. Me being a person with no prior web experience, I took the advice and really only began to see all the massive weaknesses of Wix after 90% of the site was finished. (Unfortunately for me) I'm going to have to rebuild our entire website once more this year, but I do have a lot of the content and info finalized, and I'm certainly going to keep these suggestions in mind (one of the reasons there's more content on fewer pages is simply because Wix doesn't have a drop-down menu feature). I really appreciate all the input, our next site might not be as pretty (those page transitions are rather difficult to recreate I imagine) but it will hopefully be far more navigable.
