Stuck on minor details
I’m spending time this evening fine-tuning the site by tweaking the theme template. I was pleased to note that AW’s site received its first legitimate comment today. This made me realise that, although the comment was listed in the left sidebar under “Recent Comments”, there was no comments label on the post where the comment was made. This appears to be a glitch or, most probably, just accidentally omitted from the theme template. After a while I manged to change the code in the theme’s index.php file to show the number of comments – or not – in each post. However, I did this on my site which I use as a guinea pig for testing. It works here, but not on AW’s site. I’m rather all over the place at the moment trying to find the right code to change, but it is rather puzzling that it would work on this site and not on the other. After all, I’m using the same theme for both sites – temporarily. The only thing that comes to mind is that I upgraded to WordPress 2.6.2 on my client’s site, but not on this one…. yet. Perhaps some a file or two have not uploaded correctly?
I feel a headache coming on from spending so much time staring at code on the screen; I shall carry on just a little longer tonight till I get this obstacle out of the way. Will report back tomorrw, hopefully positively!
I was also pleased to see that we are getting visitors to both sites. Although anyone visting this site (mine) needs to know that at present I am only using it for test purposes to improve AW’s site.
I’ve definitely become addictive to WordPress, but still can’t determine whether I prefer it more than just an “ordinary” website. There are pros and cons, and personally I see more cons, but perhaps because I am still at the learning stage…, or expecting too much.
