Now brought to you by WordPress

Posted by Fyse on Friday, 8 April 2005

I’d been having problems running the php script to import posts from Blogger to WordPress, and it turns out it was due to outdated software running on the SRCF servers. Still, with even my very limited knowledge of php I was able to find a way round it, so now my blog is entirely transferred to the new system. Unfortunately, this mean that the time spent making that new Blogger template was entirely wasted, but hopefully I can convert it reasonably easily to Wordpress. Until then, I’ll be using this default template. Functional, if a little boring, but at least I’m free from the woefully unreliable Blogger once and for all.

I wont be making any attempts to update the template until after the weekend, though, as I’m off to Yorkshire soon to visit my granparents. It’s just my mum and my sister going too, since my brother and dad have work commitments, and we ought to be leaving in an hour or so. In fact, I’d better stop typing immediately and get some clothes etc. into a bag. Bye for now!

    This is just a test comment. Nothing interesting at all. If you’re waiting for the punchline, there isn’t one.

    I have not been having all these problems with blogger that has everyone in such an uproar. Maybe because I don’t update as much as I used to/should? Well, nonetheless, I like the new template, definitely. I have to admit that I was a bit annoyed by your little rectangle with like five lines of text available to read. :) Do you care that WordPress blogs are somehow excluded from Google searches? Anyway, looking forward to seeing if your floating face makes a reappearance!

    Yeah, that old template wasn’t really practical for a blog, was it?! Definitely time for a change. If you didn’t visit in the middle of last week, you wont have seen the redesign I did, because I soon switched to WordPress, but I’ll hopefully convert the template soon and get rid of this rather boring one. Oh, and rest assured that my floating face certainly does appear!

    Good luck with the template edit. I’m still considering making the change to Wordpress as well. I’m giving Blogger one last chance.
