Upgraded and new look

by Jackie on August 29, 2007

No GravatarI’ve just upgraded WordPress (yeah I know I’ve been too slow to do that, but I’ve been busy), and put up a new theme to play around with. Hence, lots of stuff is broken and will probably remain so for a day or so.

One thing that’s broken is the OpenID login, and I honestly don’t know why. It was broken before I did the upgrade, so I can’t blame that. If I can’t fix it, it’ll have to go, because I really don’t have oodles of time to spare on fiddling with plugins. Hope I can fix it though, I’d miss the ability to use OpenID on here. Ho-hum.

*edit*

On second thoughts, I’m leaving the theme as it is for now. I’m in the middle of doing a design for another site and don’t want to be distracted from that for the time being. Plus, I kinda like it the way it is.

OpenID and a widget

by Jackie on May 6, 2007

No GravatarOpenID logoJust a quick post to say that you can now sign in to comment here using OpenID.

This was made possible with the OpenID WP plugin and the help of my friend Steffen, who has kindly made an OpenID WP widget.

For those who don’t know what OpenID is, you can read here, and here for more information, and you can also get your own login by signing up at myOpenID. There are other places you can get an OpenID, but this is the one that I use.

So, thanks Steffen, without you I’d have had to spend time digging around in the code (I’m getting lazy in my old age, the easy option is a good option!).

Settling down

by Jackie on April 11, 2007

No GravatarFinally decided on the Tarski theme - it only took me all day! There are hundreds and hundreds of WP themes around these days, but trying to find the few good ones out there is harder than it looks. The standard Tarski CSS will probably stay put until I have some time to play properly with the innards, but it’s nice enough as it is anyway so I’m not too upset about that.

Playing around with plugins now. Decided to use tags (I do everywhere else so why not here) courtesy of the Ultimate Tag Warrior plugin. Just looking around at all the plugins and deciding what to use can take hours and hours. It’s all good fun though!

*edit*
In case you were wondering, the old blog is thataway!
