Upgrade in progress [Update3]

Fellow readers,

As you may have noticed by now, I’m currently in the process of upgrading Too far afield to a new level – or to be more precise: WordPress 1.5.1.3. This upgrade is made for security reasons.

Please bear with me as I’m working to restore the look ‘n feel so as the functionality of the old site. Trust me, I knew why I held back the upgrade from WordPress 1.2 for so long!

Cheers!

Patrick

Update

The design transition is not really done by now. However, most things look all right to me. As far as I can see:

  • The Amazon pages need some work.
  • Search is still in the sidebar for now.
  • StraightThrouhgs are mixed between the normal posts.
  • Highlighting of the current page in the navigation bar does not work, except on the home page. This is the part, of which I have no idea how to do it, yet.
  • The CSS file will need some serious cleanup as soon as everything’s settled.

While you wait ’til everything’s finished, you can start wondering, why I left those bothering Comments Off strings alone this time…

Update 2

I fixed the links to the RSS feeds of this site. Both links displayed in the sidebar were broken.

Update 3

Amazon images work again, although there are still some things to do. They changed their API a few days ago – that broke my PHP class.

Shameless plug: If this post was useful to you, please consider buying yourself something from one of my Amazon stores: US store, UK store, FR store, DE store, CA store. If you're not into Amazon, why not donate something to GNOME, Mozilla or Wikipedia? Thank you!
