WordPress runs this site and I occasionally talk about it. I have this love/hate thing going on with WP. You might notice.
I wrote a long post about how I was abandoning WordPress a few days ago, and then I started the process by creating some HTML5 templates for one of my websites (the easiest to convert), but after two days of fiddling, it hit me hard that I don’t really have time for this.

Unless I’m missing something (entirely possible), you can no longer select a post from a list of older content by using the link options when you create or edit a link in the new WordPress editor. You can only search for the content, and if you can’t find it, well, you’d better open another browser … Continue reading Where’d the link options go in the new WordPress editor?

I want to make a success of my 500 words a day minimum. So it’s time for some triage.
So I ran across mention of WordPress 5.0 and the new editor that’s going to be in it and I was immediately overcome by visions of fear and loathing for something that was sure to ruin a good thing. :-0 Then I followed up on it, downloaded the add-in that’s available (Gutenberg) to give it … Continue reading Thoughts on WordPress’s new Gutenberg editor
I’ve changed the site theme for Perpetualized. Ain’t it great?
Sometimes WordPress bugs me; this is one of those times.
