Doing a full reinstall of everything here following some problems I had. Wish me luck!
Update: Ok, everything should be back up. There were a few things I didn’t put back, but they were mostly leftover files from my previous CMS. If you see any broken links or images, let me know.
To the 6 people still playing Odd Man In (you rock by the way), the game may break when I upgrade the site to php5 tonight. Let me know if you see anything weird that I don’t catch. Thanks.
I have been updating something on the Internets lately, but it certainly hasn’t been this blog. I am totally hooked on Twitter/Facebook status since I can do it from my phone. I’ll obviously still keep the blog for longish posts, but if you want to see what I’m up to check me out here.
I added the Twitter Tools plugin for wordpress and I set it to create a blog post every time I posted an update. (Don’t know what Twitter is? Go here).? Follow me on Twitter.
It looks a little strange on this page now with a ton of one line posts, but I’ll figure it out eventually.
Since there are no cool pictures to see right now, how about this one?
Just a heads up, I’m aware that no private messages are being displayed in Odd Man In.? They’re all still there, but I haven’t figured out yet why they’re not showing up.
Update: I found a similar problem on my dad’s site.? I figured out the issue and should be able to resolve it in OMI soon.
Update #2 
It turned out to be a completely different problem, but I think I’ve fixed it. It was related to the server change, but not the same problem as the one on my Dad’s site. Let me know if anything else is broken.
Doh, I am making a batch of my chili today and clicked on the link on the right to make the shopping list. The link was broken! It has since been fixed.
I also noticed I had 6 Tbsp of garlic, which I think must be a typo.? That would mean 36 cloves of garlic!? There’s no way I put in that much, so I lowered it to 2 Tbsp which is about 12 cloves of garlic.? I’m guessing I thought 1 clove of garlic equaled 1/2 of a table spoon, but in fact it’s 1/2 of a teaspoon.
If you’re a chili fan, you’ll definitely want to try the recipe out some day.
I’ve added a new link section on the right for some of the best posts on bengarvey.com.? After looking through them for a while I realized I have been doing this site for a long frickin time.? Got any suggestions for best posts I’ve missed?? Disagree with any of my pics?
I upgraded my wordpress installation yesterday and the primary difference is the addition of tagging posts, hense my tag cloud on the right. I’ve only been able to tag my last 30 posts or so (1100 will take me a while!) and I haven’t tagged any of the video ones due to a bug with embedded youtube videos. Still, it’s kind of neat to be able to pull up posts that don’t fit nicely into a category.
The picture I’m currently using at the top of the site is me at 15 years old. It’s in the Paul VI 1994 year book and the full picture is me standing next to Sr Renata, my ninth grade Algebra teacher.
I’ll probably switch it periodically since WordPress and the great K2 theme make it easy.
I thought I had everything figured out when I went live with the new WordPress powered blog, but it turns out that everything in PostNuke gets routed through the index.php file. I was able to work around it, so all the problems with Odd Man In and everything else should be fixed. Let me know if they are not.
