Finally making “The Move”

25 Feb
2010


I am finally mak­ing that tran­si­tion from Blogger to WordPress. For a per­son who has zero expe­ri­ence with this it has been a chal­lenge but a great learn­ing oppor­tu­nity. When I say a great learn­ing oppor­tu­nity I mean I have shed a few tears, pulled a few hairs out, called upon my knowl­edge­able friends and have finally reached a level of semi under­stand­ing. Honestly, it isn’t that bad. I am look­ing for­ward to the switch with the hope that this place that I get the priv­i­lege to express myself and get to hear your expres­sions as well will be much bet­ter.

I am hop­ing to have the tran­si­tion com­pleted very soon (the first of next week)so please be patient with me. That’s code for “please don’t leave me”. I sin­cerely appre­ci­ate all of you who take the time to read Tales of a Literary Nobody. Thank you from the bot­tom of my heart. See you on the other side :)

Thanks for your patience,

Literary Nobody

    I won’t leave you! Good luck with the tran­si­tion. I must say, you are tougher than me…I was going to do the same thing but couldn’t get the HTML to work and gave up! So guess I’ll stay where I am :)

    Good luck w/​your tran­si­tion. I’ve been debat­ing mak­ing the move bc WP has such cool fea­tures that can be inte­grated into blog­ging, but I’m entirely too lazy to actu­ally fol­low through on it, haha!

  • Literary Nobody

    Aww thanks Jeannie. LOL believe me I have thought about it a cou­ple of times but now that I have some idea how to do it it is a lit­tle eas­ier. But my brain seri­ously hurts now lol. Also, if you decide to change I can direct you to some help­ful resources.

  • Literary Nobody

    Thanks for the com­ment JNicole lol. I do love the WP fea­tures so I am excited about using them. I’m on the lazy side too lol but I am going to do my best with the switch.

    Ok maybe I’m just not that tech­ni­cally savvy but I’ve found blog­ger to be eas­ier to use than wp. What fea­tures are so great about wp that I’m miss­ing?

  • Literary Nobody

    Hey Yve thank you for the com­ment :) There are so many great fea­tures in WP that they are really too numer­ous to name but just about any­thing you might want to do with your blog WP has a plu­gin that will do it. I like the many plug ins that help with blog SEO. Plus the tem­plates are more func­tional. If you’re think­ing of try­ing it, it would be good to set up a WP blog and just use it to look at the many fea­tures it has.

    Yay scream­ing jump­ing up & down. You made and your alive. Go LN!! Heres a tip only add one plug in at a time for word­press. Plugins if they are not coded good can break your site. I know my site is down :( But its half way back up. Has been down for almost a month. Here is a site that may help you http://​www​.wpbe​gin​ner​.com/

    LOL thanks for the com­ment MD and thank you so much for the tip. Sorry your site is down right now ;( Hope it’s back up soon.

    I got you!!! Will fol­low. I con­sid­ered that switch and TOTALLY punked out, so you be strong for us both, ya heard!

  • Literary Nobody

    Thank you for the pep talk Execumamma :) lol. Okay you were pre­pared to go meat­less with me although I haven’t com­pletely gone meat­less. I’m a flex­i­tar­ian. You can do this with me too lol. No, just kid­ding. It’s a deci­sion that I guess you have to be com­mit­ted to mak­ing but I am hop­ing it will be bet­ter for me in the long run. Thanks for the sup­port!

    I opened an account on WP and tried to get started.…I thought my brain would explode — lol!! The look there is a lot “cleaner”, crisp and pro­fes­sional.
    Good luck…can’t wait to see!
