So instead of waiting any longer for ipower to fix my old blogs, I decided to just start over, kind of.
With my photoblog, it was intact but I am unable to get in and add any more posts so I am stuck at May 26th. It was an old Movable Type blog which I could barely manage or fix things like the comments that quit working awhile ago. What I did was to start a new WordPress one after I found a lovely all ready done template for photoblogs. (I made my own MT templates which I have no idea how I did that). I put in a link back to the old blog for archives and voila, I am back in business.
I then put a redirect on my original URL to my new photoblog so users going to my old blog should get to the new one automatically. I haven’t come up with the nerve to switch the 2 databases around so swardraws.com/fotog is the new one yet.
Now it is time to fix my blahblah only blahblah is still being tried to fixed my ipower so I no way want to mess with that so now I have Chatter. When I changed over from MT to WP with Blahblah, I had years of archives exported so I got those back in. I still have to put all of May’s entries back in but I should be good to go soon. I can’t seem to get the Flickr photos that go across the top of this template to work in this latest version of WP.
The only thing left that ipower HAS to fix is the new News blog I started in May for my family site. Cindy wrote a long funny post there that still is lost. They better find it.
