I can only assume this happened when I upgraded to WordPress 1.5, but three of my old entries somehow lost their “publish” status. Instead of going into “draft” status, they simply had no status at all and ended up floating around in the ether. I was able to fix it by manually editing the SQL [...]

I’ve converted my “Info”:http://www.joeyday.com/info page into a WordPress “Page” (I also added a new paragraph about the wiki). Converting it required me to build a new page.php template, but that was relatively easy. I had fun adding custom fields to my pages so that each page I build can have its own title and tagline, [...]

I’m upgrading the site to WordPress 1.5. I’ve hit some snags getting comments to work with the hacks I introduced in version 1.2. I’m trying to iron them all out, but in the mean time, please bear with me.
I may keep it set on the Kubrick theme (except when I’m testing things, of course) until [...]

Well, the crap’s been hittin’ the fan hard lately. Spammers have taken to a new trick: using trackback pings.

A friend of mine contacted me over IM with a CSS question today. Through the course of the conversation, he introduced me to an insteresting resource: “pastebin”:http://www.pastebin.com.
The premise is simple. Need help troubleshooting a piece of code? Maybe you’ve been talking to a friend over IM or IRC and they want to see what you’re [...]

Ever since I installed MagpieRSS on my server (it powers my del.icio.us sidebar links), the site loads a lot slower. I’m pretty sure it’s happening because Magpie’s caching isn’t enabled. I’d like to have caching anyway to prevent my site from overloading del.icio.us—not that it would with my piddly traffic, but it seems incredibly impolite [...]

Using instructions provided by Jon Hicks over at “Hicksdesign.co.uk”:http://www.hicksdesign.co.uk/journal/626, I’ve added a new item to my sidebar (it’s getting kinda long, isn’t it?). It’s a dynamic list of links pulled from my del.icio.us bookmarks. From time to time I’ll post links I feel are interesting, but not interesting enough to deserve a full post.

Avocation has finally been ported fully from Movable Type to WordPress. There are still a few things I’ll need to figure out before I can port my Foundation blog, but I’m pleased with the way WordPress is handling my content. I especially love not having to rebuild anything. I also feel better knowing I’ll never [...]

I’ve almost matched my former Movable Type blog using WordPress.

I’m seriously considering a switch to “WordPress”:http://www.wordpress.org, but I’m not sure I’m ready to take the plunge, yet. I’ve installed a test at joeyday.com/wp so I can try it out. It’s very different from MT.
What I like about it is that pages are generated entirely with PHP and MySQL. No Perl/CGI is used at all, [...]
