The struggle to bring the blog online

...is finally over. I tried bringing the site online August 2018, and I left it offline due to daemon problems.

Now that it's finally done, it's time for the easier, yet no less stressful, task of customizing the theme. I already changed it from the default one.

Things I currently don't like: (hopefully the next time you visit these are resolved)

  • The post slug URL doesn't include the date
  • I'd like to experiment with having the title description vs not. I'll have to change themes for that, probably
  • No option to access the admin panel on the main page with the current theme. I tried adding a page link to it but the fancy inline loading couldn't handle it. I'm forced to open the link in a new tab where it correctly redirects me. Urgh.
  • At the bottom of every post are social media posting buttons. This will require editing the site files. And likely for every theme.
  • Spent too much time figuring out the right place to put robots.txt. It goes in content/themes/{theme}. You're welcome, me from the future.
