My friend at Sacred Ordinary has been blogging for five years. Drop by and say happy birthday to her blog.

I’ve made a change to ljxp to work with Wordpress 2.5 according to these instructions.

The cutline theme came with a cute 404 page.

For now, I have settled on using the Cutline Theme for my weblog, as I could not seem to get Mandigo to work for me since I moved hosts.

Fortunately, Plan B, using PHPMyAdmin to download data from the old host, and upload data to the new host, worked. I feel so much better now.

I just upgraded Five Acres with a View to WordPress 2.3 and the theme Mandigo 1.26 without breaking anything, as far as I know. Technosailer has a round-up of the changes for WordPress 2.3.

Five years ago today I started a web log called “Coffee and Oranges.” Blog software was still quite primitive or seemed difficult to install on a web host, so I created my own using a handful of Perl scripts. In July of 2003, I volunteered to be a beta tester of the new TypePad service and started a web log called “Five Acres with a View.” I decided to install Movable Type when the beta was over a few weeks later and kept the name of my TypePad blog which seemed more appropriate than a Wallace Stevens quote. I moved to WordPress when forced to stop running Movable Type by my web host in May 2004. I have been running some version of self-hosted WordPress since then.
If my web log was a child, it would be old enough for kindergarten in the fall. Where do the years go?

This afternoon I installed WordPress 2.2 and WordPress Widgets to Jack’s weblog, exempli gratia. He will probably make some changes, but I am pleased with the effect so far.

This morning I installed WordPress 2.2, which has been available for about a week. I decided to try WordPress Widgets, which meant I needed to use a Widgets enabled theme. For now, I am trying a theme called Twister 1.0. WordPress Widgets, which enables the easy rearrangment of sidebar items, are very slick. Update: Decided to use Mandigo instead. Let me know if you see any problems.

Without too much fuss, I upgraded our web logs to WordPress (Version 2.1.3). I had a moment of panic before I discovered that I also needed to update the LiveJournal Crossposter plugin, but now everything seems to be working as desired.

Yesterday, I cleared my spam filter for this web log yesterday morning and have received 248 spam comments since then. Thank goodness for the Akismet utility, which only let one slip through in that time.
