* Migrated to a new server (Yes!)
* Backed-up Wordpress (Yes!)
* Upgraded to Wordpress 2.0.6. (No! Looks like too much hassle!) (Yes! Big thanks to magmigh for suggesting it, and Domen for walking me through it!)
* Re-registered www.carniola.org (Yes! For five more years! Someone shoot me!)
* Switched to new style (Sometime this week I think!) Now!
UPDATE: The new version should be up and running now. A big thanks to Heck for his hard work. I’m still tinkering with some things. In the meantime, let me know what you think!
Comments for this post are closed.
Basically the only thing that can be seen, can’t be seen in this moment. I will patiently wait for about a week.
Although I don’t doubt other improvements are useful as well.
woohoo for upgrades
Thumbs Up!
Yippeee, five more years!
I should stress that it doesn’t mean I’ll be blogging for five more years. Maybe I’ll follow the lead of carniola.com and carniola.net and be a linkdump/adfarm.
Also, I need to repeat that the changes will be VERY slight. There are some problems right now with the new comment box, which is causing a hold-up. Commenting seems to be a huge headache with wordpress.
Speaking of which: If anyone knows how to prevent broken tags in comments from messing up all subsequent comments — please let me know!
The only thing that comes to mind is to put all possible ending tags like at the bottom of the script which displays individual comments.
But I don’t know if that’s possible since I haven’t studied the wordpess source code thoroughly
To prevent broken tags in comments breaking other comments upgrade Wordpress to 2.0.6. They claim to have fixed it.
Quoting wordpress.org/development/2007/01/wordpress-206/
Here’s what’s new:
* The aforementioned security fixes.
* HTML quicktags now work in Safari browsers.
* Comments are filtered to prevent them from messing up your blog layout.
Hassle time!
Awww, man..
Congrats! Can’t wait for the changes in “the look”!
I love this interconnectedness that blogs have to offer. I’m glad that painstaking feature is resolved (with a little help of your friends).
So you say migrating to 2.06 is the thing to do?
It is awfully slow now… new server?!?!
abc, actually it’s so fast that it just seems slow.
Hey, I love it! The new design I mean… Nice font, lovely comment layout, great weather symbols… Great work,
Gloss!
Yeay! Your blog finally displays properly in my Opera browser. Nice.
I like the new comments boxes! neat new pix on the banner too!
Wow! I love it!!
At first the font was huge and comments were messy, but the magic F5 button did the trick. 
I think there are still things to be done.
In (mine) firefox it looks like this (too big fonts, uppercase fonts). Banner still hogs all the CPU, but it may be firefox problem.
In (mine) IE it looks:
like this.
I have the same problem in Firefox as Matej - I do like the commentbox but everything else has turned for worse…
Matej and alcessa: Have you tried refresh? Does that fix anything? It also looked like that for me at first. Give it a try and let me know if it helps.
And thanks for the screenshots!
I tried it in Firefox, but everything seems OK…
It looked the same for me in FF but it’s ok now after refreshing the page.
Yep, Refresh does the trick, THX. It does look great now!
@MM: Have you tried refresh?
It looks better now in FF (2.0), but still the same problem in IE (6.0).
>still the same problem in IE(6.0).
But it looks fine on my home PC.
Will ask Mr. Bill G.
Matej: That’s odd. I tried it on two computers with IE 6 and it looked normal. IE 7 too.
Is anyone else seeing anything strange?
Everything seems normal on my FF and IE 6 & 7
@MM:That’s odd.
Windows are meant to be odd
I have refreshed, deleted cache, cookies, history, …, but could not sort it out.
Don’t worry, as I said it works fine on another PC and I am not using IE explorer anyway. Bur it is getting interesting though …
The google search thing doesn’t render well in firefox, it sticks out to the right.
It looks alright in my version (2.0.0.1) but I remember that used to happen regularly on the old site. Anyone else seeing this?
Matej, you intrigue me…
Michael (and everyone else reading), supposedly I fixed the Google search box to try and make “fit inside” since I used to see it sticking out to the side as well myself before.
Let me know if any of these weird poltergeist effects can’t be solved (from what I read most are related to browser cache issues), we’ll add them to the bunch of things still left to do…
* make it
Well, 2.0.7 of Wordpress is out already… so you can repeat the experience
Or kick myself, since 2.1 is supposed to be out very soon too. Ugh.
