I’ve just made a slight update to the site, it’s the inclusion of breadcrumb type navigation at the top of the page.
Handwritten. By me… Just got a slight thing to alter, it currently displays exactly what is in the URL I think I’d like it to make it more human readable, less hyphens.
But you don’t get it all in one go…

Things to do before rolling out warliss.com to the latest version:- 1. I need to find out if I can miss out certain categories on the front page. 2. Merge the data from the live site with all the updates made on the testing server. 3. Tweak the design to make sure there are no holes in it.
Then release…

I’ve been fiddling around and trying to port 2 seperate blogs (the real online one and the testing one on my laptop) just by importing the posts. Something I’ve noticed with the back end of WP is the inability to manage which categories posts are under for multiple posts, you can change them one by one but not en-masse.
I’ll have to take a look for a plugin that provides this functionality or suggest this for inclusion in the next version of WP.

I think that the seventh version of warliss.com is ready to go live, I think I’ll also post a link to one of the mailing lists for a site check…
That’s one way to attract attention and page views…
I like the look, people I’ve shown it to so far have said it looks good, so here goes. This is my task on Saturday. Along with trying to import data from the old ‘cuteNews’ blogging software.
I’ll have to examine the way the date/time is written by cuteNews to see if I can convert it to a real date/time for inclusion in WordPress.
The third thing to do on Saturday is to migrate the live servers to the latest version of WordPress too (v2.1).

I’ve had to do some thinking around a slight problem with the theme. The problem is one of how to have a menu displayed containing links for non WordPress portions of warliss.com.
So I thought about it, had a coffee and biscuit and thought about it.
Then I stopped thinking about it and worked on something else. (more…)
