I am looking for an alternative to Dreamweaver. I need to use the alternative for managing / editing WordPress sites. I have been looking at Aptana Studio 3, but it seems like the documentation is a bit thin in the area. Can anyone tell me if Aptana can replace Dreamweaver for dealing with WordPress sites?

I started using Aptana as a replacement for Dreamweaver a week or so ago, and I've not turned back since. It's really all I needed to commit to Ubuntu. :-)

I also tried Bluefish and Geany but didn't like them as much as Aptana.

Another one you can try is: KompoZer
It is in the Software Center and has similar features to DreamWeaver.

This!

Just remember to install Oracle Java before running Aptana.

Besides Aptana Studio and KompoZer, previously mentioned, you could also take a look at Amaya (http://www.w3.org/Amaya/User/BinDist.html), Quanta Plus (http://quanta.kdewebdev.org/) and BlueGriffon (http://www.bluegriffon.org/).

Thanks for all of the suggestions. Now that I have had some time to work with them myself, I consider Komodo Edit to be the best text editor to use for building a web site. Komodo Edit, like Aptana can also be used to program in various programming languages. What makes Komodo Edit stand uot, is it's ability to work on remote servers.
