The Road to Reconstruction – Day 18
As today was the last day of school and therefore a half-day, and because I had plenty of actual work to do, I didn’t bring my laptop with me to work on the site while I was in the office, and because I napped until suppertime after getting back home, I didn’t actually gain much in the way of time to work on the site. That being said, I did make it partway into Page 2 of the movie reviews, up to Arabesque. I’m constructing a new index based on directors as I go, so the process of putting up the reviews is taking just a little bit longer than it would otherwise.
Here in Japan, the vernal equinox is a holiday, so that means plenty of time to focus on the site. While my initial plan was to focus on restoring content, my frustration with the default theme resisting any changes I make to it is reaching the point where I may just have to take a moment to craft either a sub-theme or an all-new theme of my own so I can get things to actually look the way I want. It’s pretty annoying to see a giant column in the picture index because I can’t display images inline. (And the heck of it is that I got it working earlier, about the only change I made to actually stick, only for it to have apparently reverted and then ignored my dummying out of the block display condition in the stylesheets. Rrg…) Anyway, I was doing some research in the current trends in CSS design and I may be able to recreate all the positives of the Olivero theme without the interference. The situation calls for some experimentation.
Anyway, between restoring the still massive amounts of review content that remains and getting the design of the site to better align with my vision, I’ve got plenty to keep me occupied on my day off. Continue to follow our ongoing coverage here for more updates. Stay tuned.
