The Godfather Theme. Theme Hacking Galore

Posted by Kirk M on 30 Dec 2007 | Tagged as: Just Thinkin

I just did a CSS job to Sixty’s WordPress blog. Actually I just made some changes to an add-on style  sheet (vader.css) for the K2 theme so the text and such in various areas was readable which is always a good thing to do for one’s readers. They don’t really like it that much [...] Read more »

Tags and Categories-Tagged Again! Part II

Required reading: Tags and Categories-Tagged Again! Part I
Many thanks to Grandad. This absolutely horrendous, disjointed post is all his fault but he’ll probably blame it on K8.
And here we go….
I seem to be getting older these days. Not only am I getting older but it seems to be becoming a habit, a perpetual thing if [...] Read more »

WordPress 2.3.1-An Email Notification Fix

Posted by Kirk M on 11 Nov 2007 | Tagged as: Wordpress

The upgrade to WordPress 2.3.1 may have fixed a lot of bugs that existed in the original 2.3 release but it seems that it created another rather large one. For a lot of folks who upgraded they found that they no longer received email notifications when a reader left a comment on one of their [...] Read more »

What the Heck Have I Been Doing?

Posted by Kirk M on 05 Nov 2007 | Tagged as: Just Thinkin

Well…I’ll tell you.
I’ve been spending the last few days wrestling a new WordPress install into something that resembles a shopping cart.

So now that I have "medically retired" so to speak I now have the entire day to myself to do whatever I wish. Okay, not so it’s not exactly like that since I can take on the household chores which is something I’m certainly not unfamiliar with in the least but there is also my [...] Read more »

Just when you think everything is going smoothly you find out something is awry and today when I checked my Dashboard I noticed I had a few new incoming links displayed in Google’s Blog search box as well as Technorati’s. So what the hell happened to the trackbacks that were supposed to be there.
Aaarrrgh!

Lunch With an Upgrade on the Side

Posted by Kirk M on 14 Oct 2007 | Tagged as: Misc posts

My good friend Elaine over at Elaine’s Place took the plunge several months ago and decided to "do-it-herself" and tackle her own WordPress install and I have to say she has done it in style. Especially since she absolutely despises doing upgrades and she deserves even more credit because of it. And now it’s time [...] Read more »

If you’re wondering why…

Posted by Kirk M on 09 Oct 2007 | Tagged as: Just Thinkin

…there’s no edit function any longer for the comment form and that some of your bookmarks go to 404 pages it’s due to turning off 3 plugins in an effort to keep things working properly.
There’s a problem with the site in that it’s a sub-domain of my wife’s business website which she manages with MS [...] Read more »
