LM-BLOG Simple Yet Good

16Jun/092

Back with many improvements

As you all knew I was leaving on Thursday to go on a well deserved bre

ak to the download music festival. I returned late yesterday and did not post yesterday.

  As I first logged in upon return I was notified that my WordPress installation was now out of date and I should upgrade to version 2.8.  This as always posed a huge threat to the site as upgrade installs sometimes wipe out the entire site.

  A full backup was then taken (having a much larger database than I expected) and then a manual upgrade took place. The upgrade went perfectly which is what I had wanted and I was able to go straight back to work on the site.

A new feature
The 2.8 upgrade also seemed, to me, to be the best possible time to finally make a mobile version of LM-BLOG.

  I spent about an hour working on finding the most suitable system that would automatically take users visiting from a mobile phone/pda directly to our mobile site.lmblogmobile2lmblogmobile

I found the one I wanted and again backed up before installing the system. The view/s above is what most mobile phones will see when they view lmblog.co.uk

If you are on a slow internet connection you can view the mobile site by logging on to :

I am hoping to return back to normal posting either today or tomorow and would like to thank fleck for his first post of hopefully many.

  1. Oh my… did you see Faith No More??? I really, really wanted to see them.
    Sorry I didn’t write anything – I’ve been away on a staff conference and am leaving for New York on Sunday.

  2. I did see Faith No More, one of the best bands I have ever seen. I am already working on plans to get myself along to the Edinburgh show in august.

    I blog at leemaclaughlan.co.uk and plan to post about download on it soon.
