New theme I’m proud to present to you. Some small adjustments will be done in the coming weeks and most of the old posts will be tagged too.
For the graphics I have to thank Jani once again for helping me out very much.
For everyone using Internet Explorer, could it be time to move to better browsers? I’m pointing at Apple Safari and Mozilla Firefox, both run very well on Windows.
I like to keep my software, online and on hard drive, up to date. To accomplish this I use few awesome tools to keep my head clear.
To keep my Apple OS X Applications-folder up to date I use AppFresh, great app that first goes through the apps and widgets and compares the version information to osx.iusethis.com lists.
I look after about 5 wordpress blogs. To keep them all up to date to the latest releases, I don’t download the packages from the website, I use subversion access to keep the software up to date.
The next commands should be run inside bash shell. If you don’t know what that is, you probably shouldn’t do it all by yourself.
To install new blog from the subversion repositories (2.3 to demonstrate):
# svn co http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.3/ .
in the directory where the software should be installed into (remember the dot at the end of the line).
To update to the latest version number (from 2.3 to 2.3.1 like I did yesterday):
# svn sw http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.3.1/
in the same directory where the wp-config.php is, meaning your install directory.
You can just browse to the http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/ to find out the latest tags.
These few commands inside the bash shell keep my head even more clear. No more mistakes that override everything.
I’ve written about svn before, but for these commands and more I suggest reading “Updating WordPress with Subversion” from the Wordpress Codex. They also explain how to change the default/traditional install to subversion installation.
I got bored and coded this today. Some things will be changed as I continue developing this scheme.
Big thanks goes out to jQuery I used to make the curly corners (if you can’t see em, enable your javascript support) and Kubrick-theme I used as base for making life so much easier.
I know the name of the theme isn’t the best one for something, but it is easier to manage and archive later. Plus I later know when I actually made this.
As you might have noticed, my wordpress installation doesn’t like my theme.
If someone knows what’s wrong, any info regarding the solution (or even where to start looking some more) is welcome. I haven’t been able to determine what the hell is wrong.
In the mean time, if you catch my site showing the default Kubrick-theme, it’s cause of the problem I’m having.
Edit: Resolved the problem by renaming the theme folder to “default”.
