Well I’m not exactly sure how or why it happend, I am doing my best to get to the bottom it, but my installation of WordPress sort of broke. It seems to be up and running now but it does feel like it is convalescing. So for the last few days the site may have been quite invisible.

The reason for it being a little unwell has been solved by playing with the permissions on the files. This is fine, as it is now working, but I am also finidng bits of the site which are still a little creaky, so please bear with me.

While I’m here I’d best point out that I have been a little unorganised with a hefty writing commission. This has taken far too much time and eaten into my other writing time. There should be a couple of posts to explain what I have learnt in the process but it has meant posts here have been infrequent.

Well I have managed step one, upgrading to WP 2.5, although there was a slight detour via a server migration. I have to say WordPress handled it beautifully. I exported the posts and then imported them into this version. We should be working fine now.

I am using the fantastic sandbox theme, although I will be skinning it for !maginality. I have made the decision to make the skinning a viewable process. The reason being that if I leave it hidden, it will be out of sight and possibly out of mind. This way, if it looks bad, I should do something about it.

All the plugins aren’t fully loaded yet either, I’ll be choosing what ones to use and where soon, so hopefully not too much discomfort for those viewing.

Now let’s get back to being creative.
