Blog Merge Complete
I have completed moving the material from the blog and news pages of Solitary Confinement over to WhistlinDixie. However, I have left comments turned off for all of these items since they were posted in the past. Also, due to the basic nature of my previous site, there were no comments to begin with, so these posts will stay comment-less for perpetuity.
You may also notice that the site looks very different (as well as acts very different) from when it first started up. This is because when I started, I was using a CMS called GeekLog. After about a day, I decided that I did not like it and I also discovered that it had a rather small community built around it, meaning not much support. After playing around a bit, I decided to go with an application called Nucleus CMS. It is simpler and tailored for what I need: a blog. Nucleus also has a large, active user community, meaning a plethora of skins and plugins are available for it, making it much more flexible.
Outstanding tasks:
- I have noticed that clicking on a tag in the tag cloud does not seem to actually bring up a page that contains all of the items that have that tag, but rather all items on the blog. I’ll take a look into that another day.
- I still have to populate my links page (some CSS hacking will take place first to get some pretty menus) and my about page.
- Then, and only then, will I get to getting Gallery2 up and running and port over my image galleries.
