Progress Report

by Tables on May 9, 2016

Minor Progress for now.

Thing’s I’ve Gotten Done:

Enabled Avatars for update posts. I’ll most likely not be posting alone in the future and this’ll make it easier to differentiate between myself and the other poster/s. I also think it just looks more visually appealing while scrolling down the site.
Added some padding in the site CSS so elements don’t seem so on edge.
Got the Comments Section to stop displaying an “Invalid Request Signature” error. It was some kind of conflict with Jetpack’s own Comments function.
- Edited the CSS for Comments as well as changing the look of the default submit button.

The Colors!

by Tables on May 6, 2016

I’ve edited some of the colors around the site. I still need to eliminate the background behind the comic as well as the list from my previous post.

Got the Header Back to Normal

by Tables on May 5, 2016

Turns out I had a second header plugin that was donkey dongs. Added more beta pages to test out the comic archives. The default layout isn’t so bad but I want to figure out how to customize it.

I also still need to find a plugin to generate a better mobile site than Jetpack can offer.

Other things I need to do include: ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Archives Needs Work

by Tables on May 4, 2016

Keeper's Objects

I’ve installed plugins that give me the functions for adding custom headers on a per-post/page/chapter basis as well as a per-page/post CSS editor.

Now I need to figure out how to edit the Archives layout to look how I want it to, as well as creating a child theme for the site. (Assuming that doing so doesn’t undo any of my recent progress.)

~~FOR SOME REASON THE MAIN HEADER ISN’T DISPLAYING PROPERLY ON THE HOME PAGE.~~

EDIT: I also have to find a mobile site plugin since Jetpack’s has compatibility issues with ComicPress.

Captain’s Log!

by Tables on May 3, 2016

As of now, the website is back to how I had it before with minor cosmetic differences. There are still some Comic Easel settings to tweak as well as customizations to the comic post appearances.

There’s also still the matter of that pesky Comics Archive and the Mobile View for the Blog Page.

Will work on these later!

Til Next Post!

Here We Go Again…

by Tables on May 3, 2016

I'd lose my head if it wasn't attached to me!

Alas, poor metal Yorick!

Hello! I accidentally broke the site and all my progress was reverted to a backup from march. Thankfully, it was mostly a lot of cosmetic changes between then and this snafu.

I’ve decided that, as I build the site, I’m going to use the blog portion to sort of log my progress and make notes of things that need to get done. It’ll also serve the function of giving me a proper blog archive to construct and style as I see fit.

Right now I’m re-uploading image files and I’m going to plug them into their places from before. I’m also uploading some older comic pages to work out the comic posting, archiving, and navigation functions that ComicPress has to offer me.

So far, things that I couldn’t get to work are the blog page in the mobile view, and the archive page templates. I’ll keep you posted.

Until then,

Stay Toasty!
