Buzzzzzzzzz

BASTARD…..

I thought Wordpress 2.1 was supposed to have a bloody autosave feature? My luck.

Anyway, as I was saying, before I rudely interrupted myself by accidently clicking on the back button: apologies to anybody getting some weird posts in their feed over the weekend. I upgraded to the newest version of Wordpress on Saturday and all of a sudden my email posting feature starting working. I can’t really remember setting it up as I’ve never used it. Or, to be more precise, it never worked. So, I’ve turned it off only to be buzzed every five minutes by wp-mail error emails.

The issue of upgrading was kind of forced on me once things started going awry after installing that mobile plugin. I noticed that Google was indexing and showing the mobile version over this version of the blog and, more worryingly, I noticed that the preview post feature in the backend was showing the mobile layout of the blog – even after uninstalling it.

After reckoning to find a solution, I plumped for an upgrade.

I’ve held off upgrading for a while because I’m a bit of a fantastico fan lazy bastard and my fantastico files had long disappeared a few servers shift ago. I stumbled across some post (that I know can’t stumble across for the life of me) that explained how to sort that specific problem out (future post?) and foolhardily(?) set about waving new brooms like a crack-cranked caretaker.

I’m pleasantly surprised how well everything is working, but that’s not an excuse for me not to piss about for the next couple of days sorting out a new template and upgrading/installing new plugins.

Is it wrong for me to get a buzz out of this crap?
