I am not a developer. I’m a writer with just enough technical knowledge to be dangerous. So there’s probably a lot I don’t know about creating blogging software. I’m not the guy who builds the platform. I’m the guy who comes goes comes in, redecorates, adds some content, and makes […]
This time it’s a query. I’ve been emailing back and forth with my host about it for two days. I thought the problem was a database table from a plugin I’m not using anymore. It’s not a table for a plugin that’s causing the problem. I realized today it’s a WordPress database table (wp_post2cats). […]

It doesn’t have quite the full range of functions that a WordPress install does, but they’re […]
OK. I think I’m finally getting a handle on this tagging business, or — as some folks like to call it — "folksonomy." I’ve fiddled with a few plugins here and there, but I think I finally settled on a combination that will allow me to do something I’ve been wanting to do on this […]
