One moment, please…

Monday, January 8th, 2007

Am attempting to determine why the “comments” function is misbehaving. Am going to do some quick experimenting which will completely discombobulate the appearance of this site for a few moments if you’re happening to visit while I’m troubleshooting…

UPDATE: Many, many hours later. It is seeming to me that the comments function may have disappeared when I upgraded WordPress from 2.0 to 2.02 in late summer or early fall.

The newer version may have some imcompatibility with my design (known as a “theme” in WordPress speak). I haven’t found where the possible imncompatibility lies but have proven that the problem is not with WordPress itself. ‘Comments’ works and all the old comments are there when I switch to WordPress’s highly functional but not so pretty default “Kubrick” theme. Going to continue slogging away at this.

It is also possible that I corrupted some code somewhere while validating the site in October.

TUESDAY UPDATE: About 8 hours into this I’m as puzzled as I was at the start. Haven’t located the source of the problem. I have a request in at the WordPress support forum and am hoping someone there may spot what it is I need to fix. So far no takers.

Corrupted code finally fixed — site rolling again

Thursday, October 12th, 2006

Wow. The site is working again in both IE and Firefox. And the code is validated.

Next on the agenda (after I completely back-up the newly fixed and validated files) is to do some more design work. Some neatening. Some simplifying.

- Going to cull down the “Sections” display to less than a dozen key categories.

- Going to replace the Google Adsense ads with targeted affiliate network ads and my own offerings as I roll them out. Going to experiment with ad placement, as well.

Completely dropping Google Adsense as a revenue model since it is only paying a few cents per click on website-served ads. That is the result of a Google policy change made last November. Hopefully it will kill all those spam “scraper” sites that are clogging the search engines. But it also makes it pretty pointless from a business sense for legitimate sites to run Google ads.

- May widen the sidebar columns a bit (and narrow the main content column to compensate) so the sider columns are more content friendly.

All underway and changes should be visible within a week or two.
