“Mark! Mark! Quick, come here! Help!” Now that could mean lots of things, but it did seem that something was seriously wrong. Turned out it was. Debs had been working on the PC for a few minutes when it shut down, then tried to restart whilie the case filled with acrid smoke.
Blog up and running. Satisfactory theme installed; plenty of tweaking to go, but it supports the functionality I want just now. WPTouch installed to make reading on mobile less difficult. xml-rpc turned on and mobile client hooking in. The more I dig around, the more logical it seems to move the whole site onto WordPress.
That seems to be mobile blogging up and going. Raison numero uno for upgrading from the managed 1and1 blog.
Moved to a new installation, and now trying to import the old blog. Trouble is 1and1 blog exported this as an xml file and WordPress 3.1 doesn’t seem to recognise it. It will only take .wxr at the moment. I’ll get there.
