It’s the browser
Sep 30th
Okay so I narrowed down the alignment problem to the browser I was using
With this theme the following browsers show:
- IE7 – everything aligned properly but no rounded corners (you should see the curves, they’re purdy)
- Opera 9.52 – Everything works and the theme looks great
- Firefox 3 – Everything works and looks great
- Google Chrome – Misaligned flash
but has rounded corners.
Now that is narrowed down I can start figuring out why IE7 doesn’t like the post writing page.
New Theme
Sep 29th
I found this kickass theme. Changing the background is easy. I really like how simple it is and keeps the visual noise down while being aesthetic.
Yes I know some of the alignment is broken. But what do you think? Any ideas for a background I could throw in there?
Apologies for everything that was lost in the last month. The host disappeared completely and my last backup was a month ago. REMEMBER TO BACKUP! I now have the DB set to auto backup and email the backup to an email account not associated with mikebenton.org so it doesn’t ever disappear.
Wordpress Updated
Sep 29th
Okay I got Wordpress and all the Plugins updated to the most recent version and played around a bit with some plugins I haven’t messed with in awile. It feels all shiny new
I’m Back!
Sep 28th
Okay so the last host was a good one but somehow never answered any emails nor sent me emails and the hosting disappeared along with all my other sites. Luckily I had backups of most of them. I’m now at BlueHost.com and the restoration was seamless. I just registered with bluehost, redirected my name servers, upped my back up, uncompressed it, created a new database, db user, imported the old db, reconfigured the config file for wordpress and voila! it all works, less than 30 mins. I’m a bit rusty.
So it’s back, this week you won’t see many posts. I’m going to upgrade Wordpress, install some plugins, change the theme and play with some stuff. So drop a line in the comments to say hi!
EDIT apparently some links aren’t working for the archives. No big deal. Not important stuff anyways. If there is something missing that you would like to see restored let me know in the comments!
