Pardon the Bits Under Construction

Posted on December 14, 2009 in: Media, Tech

The Cosmic Sitcom™ is making the leap from iWeb to Wordpress, so pardon all the chaos as content gets migrated over the next week or so.

CHAOS EVERYWHERE The blog’s getting an upgrade but it means lots of changes and mistakes for a few days. I’m obliged for your patience.

The Cosmic Sitcom™ is making the leap from iWeb to WordPress, so pardon all the chaos as content gets migrated over the next week or so.

Making the transition easier were these handy directions for importing my posts from the old site using RSS. Images didn’t quite make it over on their own, so I’ve had to import those manually.

I’m really liking the WordPress theme for the new site, Visual, by Rubiqube at Theme Forest. Not everything works out of the box but it’s a beautiful theme — newsy but with plenty of white space to make scanning for content easy — and it’s well documented, with support forums that have so far addressed every issue I’ve encountered.

As many times as I’ve done domain name changes, they’re never easy; something’s always effed up, so if you encounter an error, please let me know.

NOSTALGIC for the old site while this one’s under construction? It’s still viewable here.
