Upgraded to WP 3.0.1

Doesn’t seem to have any problems that I have found yet.
I will need to do some major reconfiguring of content and php templates to use the new Twenty-10 theme, so that will be the next push.

On My Beat is Live on WP!

All the old content is now updated to WordPress. I have added spam blocking and will be testing commenting. I haven’t removed the old MT site or database yet either, want to make sure all is working good before I do that. I still need to tweak this theme some especially sidebars .. but there is always time to do that!

I will wait for WP 3.0 to come out now before I go to work on my other sites, especially Creationdreams.net.

I hope if you come around here that you will leave a comment.

Ok, it’s painfully obvious to me that I need a different comment form.

Almost ready to go Live ..again

Well I have all but year 2009 posts transferred to this new blog. In doing that many emotions have crossed my mind, some not much fun.

Once 2009 is done, I will need to set up spam blocking for comments and turn them on, test a new gallery short code page and wait till WP 3.0 is done beta testing and ready for prime time before I change this theme, which I am not liking much.

Spring is upon us here, as well as a Bruce Cockburn tour, anad some health issues that I truly hope are resolved quickly and painlessly.

I use Facebook every day..but I am looking forward to longer postings here, and hopefully turn this into more than a personal journal.

Theme Issues

Not really happy with the way this theme and my changes are working out. But I want to get to the transfer of content. I figure that once I have everything transferred to WP, I can then take the time to find or make a new theme that I will want to use going forward.

As I pull more and more content from old MT blog into this WP theme, I realize I need more room and better photo layouts. Especially for anything ‘new’… so this too is just a work in progress!

Odd WP Doings

After working all day yesterday tweaking the style sheet for styling, today after login in I am being taken to an ‘old’ front page of OnMyBeat in MT! How strange as I removed the file from the server and checked that is was still there.

My hosting providers must have done a reboot of some kind and replaced it. Will have to contact Annette and ask, but off to town for the moment.

Oh and I have a ‘jump’ when clicking on the header that just showed up as well. Will have to have someone trouble shoot that one for me.

Much Work Styling Still To Be Done

Apparently I can just write with out adding p tags and just use a enter tab to get a paragraph break.

And many admin settings to tweak before I even start bringing the old content over here.
I sort of like all the colors here, my old blog was very ‘zenish’ and boring.. but in 2003 that was the direction the web was leaning at that time. I am so glad to see a lot of new themes out there that have great graphics.
