LJXP

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

Now that ljxp has been updated to work with WordPress version 2.5, I have reinstalled it! Hurrah!

I’ve also added some other plugins. One of my favorites being Lighter Menus. It makes navigating the Wordpress administration area 200 times faster!

I also wanted to try SimpleLife, but I kept getting errors on the plugin menu. It looks like a wonderful plugin if you get it to work though!

I worked a little bit on a layout for Zombify as well. I changed the look once again. I’ll probably stick with the idea, since it’ll be a lot more flexible than the last idea.

I should have a lot more done on this website this week. I have become super motivated once again.

Why you should keep backups…

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Well I managed to save all of my content. It was almost a disaster and I almost lost everything I worked on. I still have a lot to fix, but at least I don’t have to start completely over.

What am I talking about? I almost nuked my website during upgrading to the new Wordpress. I think I’ll stay way from automatic updaters for awhile. It’s not as nice as having full control if you know what I mean.

LJ crossposter

Sunday, March 16th, 2008

I got the LJXP ( LiveJournal ) Cross-poster to work. I had a hard time getting it to work. I thought something was wrong with the coding, but all that was wrong was the time options on my Wordpress. I didn’t set the timezone offset right. So I wasted my whole morning trying to fix something simple.

An addiction and a new religion

I’ve been downloading wordpress plugins like all day. I think I have a downloading obsession when it comes to plugins, widgets, scripts, and fonts. I can spend hours just downloading such things. Half of the things I download are even useless! I just feel the need to try them. Sometimes I wonder if I should go into web development instead of biology. I’d love to be able to write awesome php scripts.

I installed six out of the many plugins I downloaded today: Flickr Photo Gallery, Audio Player, DDeviantart (which the images didn’t seem to work), Maintenance-Mode, Thumbnails Manager, and Democracy. I spent awhile deciding whether I wanted to go with FAlbum of Flickr Photo Gallery. I decided to go with Flickr Photo Gallery for a few reasons. One reason being is that I’ve used it before. Two being I like lot of the features it has. When I installed it I did have a problem with it, but I just added a line of code and it worked fine. I still want to edit the look of it, but I’ll wait until I work on the theme to do that.

Speaking of the Flickr Photo Gallery, I found some interesting things on the TanTanNoodles website. There is actually a lolcat translation of the bible!!

In teh land of Uz wuz a man calded Job. Teh man wuz goodz, afraid of teh Ceiling Cat and evilz.2 Teh man hadz seven sunz and tree doters,3 And lots of sheepz and camlez and rinoceruseses and servnts, srsly.4 His sunz tok turns mading cookies, and they all eated them.5 And Job wuz liek “Oh noes! Wut if cookies were sin? Gota prey, just in cased

L-M-A-O!!!!!!! Also I found this really neat little song on tantannoodles.com.
