Migration
By hipkat on Jul 2, 2009 in Peoria
Is this the beginning of admittance to being a burgeoning Peorian?
I’ve abandoned blogger for a new home here on BlogPeoria!
Yay!
A Life In The Day
Just alot of random thoughts that will probably snowball into explicit rants at some point, open to criticism and speculation by the masses.

Does this mean you will actually post more often? [IMG]http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Laughing/lol-022.gif[/IMG]
That was a smiley that didn’t come through!
Thanks for the vote of confidence, HK.
As you may have notices member-uploaded avatars are not displaying. I’ve submitted a request for assistance at the Buddy Press forum and I’m asked my hosting company to look into it.
Solution soon, I think.
And the good folks at WPWebhost have solved the problem by changing rewrite rules in .htaccess. Woo Hoo!
And here, I thought it was me!
Now, as along as no one minds Jesus giving everyone the finger, we’ll be OK!
Next question, how can I upload a different wordpress theme, should I come across one that isn’t hosted here?
I think I’m going to have no choice BUT to post more often, now Ramble!!
Which is a good thing!
There’s currently no way for a lowly user to upload a theme. Heh heh heh (seriously, it’s a security thing programmed into the WPMu platform)
But I am very flexible, and will upload themes and plugins that member users want to use.
WordPress maintains a repository of themes:
http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/
Browse away and me know if there are any you like.
I will. You have some great ones here, but some don’t support widgets so well, and I wouldn’t be proficient in enough in altering the code, even if I had access to it.
If you encounter themes that do not support widgets, tell me and I will toss them out. I don’t have time to test them all, and some slip through my comprehensive vetting process (which is; Does it look pretty?”).
Next time I got through them, I’ll take note and let you know.
I tried all the black color based ones and that’s where I found a few that supported none, without a code addition, or that didn’t support all the widgets I’m using
