The Road to Reconstruction – Day 2
I continued my work on reconstituting the Update Archive. I was able to significantly improve my efficiency when it came to swapping out the old code for the new. I was able to complete the long journey to 2024, but as I was running out of time, I realized there were some other tweaks I needed to make to the files. Better to get it knocked out know when the list is still short. (Yes, I can search for specific pages, but I did like Wolf’s folder structure for keeping everything organized.)
When it comes to the look of the site, I’m having a real uphill battle trying to override the default CSS. It’s just something I’m going to have to hammer away at until I get it fixed. The current settings for blockquotes are really obnoxious and I need my div classes to format text the way I want. (I refuse to rely on the WYSIWYG text editor. The code those things produce is just so daggone ugly.)
For now, I want to focus on the grunt work of creating all the files and then I can focus on making it all look the way I want. As this is finals week, we don’t have to pull full days, so that means more time to focus on getting the site back up in working shape. Stay tuned.
