Blogs and Bollywood
How did I see the New Year in? I was up to 1:30am wrangling my new blog platform (goodbye Blogger, hello WordPress), oh and watching Bride and Prejudice at the same time… I cannot honestly say which was more painstaking to watch – countless ‘error notifications or Martin Henderson being all romantic-like in a sherwani. Bollywood aside, I’ve finally made the jump to WordPress – and only now (after many hours of frustration) am I glad I did. As they say perseverance pays off in the end. Please forgive the layout over the next few days as I will be endeavoring (in between pulling off some sweet jumps on my son’s new BMX, playing Candyland and swimming in my daughter’s paddling pool) to tweak it into pure blogging awesomeness. Happy new year!
Burton’s back!
Handy quick tip: To get all your blogs posting under a name a little more user-friendly than the stark “admin” author name, go into “add new” under “authors and users” in your wp dashboard and create a new user called symondrake (or whatever you prefer), and use this name to sign in to your db. You can then bulk re-author all the posts you imported as this new user and also change the way the name displays everywhere to be Symon Drake instead of symondrake (it’s just a nifty little option in the users section).
Loving your wp tan, although I think it would be better described as full on sunburn considering the 1:30am retire time.
