JasonWordPress blog, Fan Films, Forum, WordPress
Well per my post on the 18th I have gotten wordpress mu up and running on my forum server. Currently the urls used to access that system are;
Only the first one works 100% correctly right now. My virtual hosts file and dns aren’t quite syncing up correctly — should be fixed eventually.
By that, you should take this as a very serious effort on my part. I want this to be a success. The next thing I must do is figure out how to correctly style the MU entry page such that it’s a self explainitory advertisement of what it does, and such that it incorporates content from the various other blogs.

JasonDev Diary, WordPress Fan Films, Forum, WordPress
As many of you know I am the owner of the Amateur and Fan Films forum over at fanfilmsforum.com. I am always keen on making new things happen for people and have always wanted that community to do well. While I will admit my aspirations to make films has some what died down, I still very much enjoy talking about films and media in general and interacting with the folks on the forum.
Over the years I have started and stopped several projects for the forum. Most of them looked good on paper, or even half way through production but just didn’t pan out for one reason or another. The latest attempt was at making a film repository and voting system that was similar to IMDB but specifically for amateur/fan films. As of right now that project is on hold – likely forever.

JasonTheme blue, custom header, custom widgets, fixed width, microblue, Theme, two columns, widgets, WordPress
This is my first fully custom, from the ground up worldpress theme — I give you; Microblue.
As of this posting, its the theme I’m using and I plan to release it to the wild once it’s fully working. I also will be releasing the PSD that I used to create it so you can take it one step farther if you like.
For icons I’m using either using famfamfam.com silk icons or taking those icons and modifying them in some way.

I have updated to the latest wordpress and managed to break a couple things in my theme. The way the new category system works is confusing me. Firstly my “Desired Functionality” plug-in is likely no more.. I just don’t want to have to fight with it…
But I’m now having to figure out how the heck to do the whole parent::child categories thing.. again.. This was the reason I made the plugin in the first place and since they have completely redone everything, I don’t want to have to figure the new system out..

JasonJS/CSS Etc, WordPress
The theme that this theme is based on, “Oceans Mist” had a number of problems that I wont go into.. however one of the biggies was its inability to correctly display archives.
Basically if you had any more than 10 items (or however many you have your WP set up to display in the admin area) they just wouldn’t show up. There was no way to page back through those archives. This is lame, and I’m fixing it.

I have tried many different content management and blogging systems. None of them have impressed me with their ease of use and functionality nearly as much as WordPress. I really like wordpress – the price is right and the product is good. It’s a fully featured package with as much functionality as you want, and if you don’t find the functionality you need, you can always write it in, in the form of a plugin. Kudos WordPress.
