Upgrade complete ^_^
For some time now I’ve been trying to make time to upgrade my blog’s wordpress junk. A new version came out some months ago with new features and such but I just couldn’t get around to doing all the leg work required. Well I finally did it. Yay! Now my blog has threaded comments, which is a feature I’ve wanted for a long time now. Only problem was… they didn’t work. Crap… now what… Well the reason was that my theme was not compatible with the new wordpress. So back to the internet I go to find a theme that I like so I can mess with it and put it up on my site.
I get really nervous messing with other people’s themes. I’m not a programmer at all. I can barely do basic stuff at the best of times. I actually thought I screwed it all up but thankfully it was okay. So now I have a new theme AND threaded comments AND avatars! Woo!!!
Actually the avatars are called Gravatars. It’s some sort of universal avatar system that works with wordpress sites. I had my doubts about it but after trying it out it was super easy to do and I don’t have to worry about any of the backend code stuff to make things work. If you’re registered at my blog I recommend you go get one.
The only thing I could get working was the lightbox2 plug in. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong but I’ll live with it for now. I guess it’s all a learning process.
