Crisis averted, thanks to my memory and downloadable plugins. Even got to upgrade the theme. If an image is missing or something goes boink, please let me know and I will fix it asap. And then I did the Stupid Dance. Tweet

This Blog Is Alright, I Promise

May 24, 2011

The infernal somewhat-hinky theme that you see here is what happens when you: 1) Don’t backup the files in your damned wp-content/uploads/ folder before attempting an on-the-fly wp-admin/media-upload.php fix and .htaccess replacement over FTP (Filezilla), 2) Swear to Yahweh that you told Filezilla to delete only the remote wp-admin folder, but somehow wp-content decided to [...]

Attempting the use of Asides again to record short stray thoughts that don’t warrant their own post. Styling this is a pain in the rear. Let’s see how it goes.

This Is A Test

November 6, 2009

Looks like yesterday’s post titled links for 2009-11-05 posted and reposted itself a dozen times overnight, eventually turning into links for 2009-11-06. I use the Blog Autoposting Tool (Beta) on del.icio.us which “creates a daily post of your latest bookmarks to your blog.” I wonder whether it went nuts or my WordPress install is on [...]

Testing New Theme

August 16, 2009

VatulBlog’s latest incarnation is brought to you by Ocular Professor, “a photoblogging theme that features large images, gallery support, and threaded comments for WordPress 2.7 [and up].”  Hope this is a better way to link the photographs at my Flickr gallery to this blog, make the blog more visually appealing and, given all the travel I’ve [...]

Upgraded VatulBlog to WordPress 2.7.  The new dashboard is a lot like Flickr’s slick new Home page – all management utilities are available via drop-down menus on one page as opposed to tabs.  QuickPress is sweet, but hotlinks have to be created manually and categories can only be added during an edit. Must be why [...]

Day 996: Travel, Sick Relatives, Computers. Gah.

May 20, 2008

Things have been rather hectic here at VatulBlog HQ lately.  So busy that I have neither the time nor the inclination to blog.  I’ve seen more of the insides of airports and geophysical data than any human should and the best part is that it isn’t over.  More travel and data schlepping ahead. This past weekend, [...]
