WordPress 2.5 Woes

I’ve upgraded my version of WordPress to the latest 2.5 release. I’m digging the new features, but unfortunately, my former theme (the incredibly popular K2) doesn’t play well with 2.5. I was planning on working up a new theme, but I wasn’t quite ready yet. This current situation has certainly increased my need for expediency. So hang tight with me until I get things cleaned up around here.

For those of you reading me via RSS subscription, today is NOT the day to actually come visit my blog.

Cheers!

EDIT: I’ve reinstalled K2 for now. It’s messed up on the backend, but works for most users. Can you let me know if anything looks or is broken? Thanks.

EDIT 2: Apparently, installing K2 RC5 solves a lot of the admin problems. Huzzah! In other news, after some searching for a new theme, I don’t think that I will change after all. I quite like what I’ve got going on here. I think I’ll just personalize it a bit more.

Bad boy of blogging…

BLOCKEDI’m a blogging bad boy.

I’ve been blocked by SmartFilter at Harding University for “pornography.” Now, I wouldn’t mind being blocked at HU for “instrumental worship support” or “men’s and women’s equality,” but “pornography?” Come on!

Let’s use our brains SmartFilter.

If you happen to attend HU and read this blog through Facebook or an RSS reader or at the Oil (what do the cool kids call Midnight Oil now, I wonder?), please click the link to have my site unblocked.

UPDATE: I’ve received an email saying that my site has be recategorized as Personal and Blogs/Wiki. Can any HU students and/or faculty confirm this?

Favorite Google Search Ever

Thanks to Anne, I’m checking my blogstats for the search results that bring people to my page. Typically they’re pretty boring — largely along the lines of “The Todd,” “todd” and “Todd Blog.” Sometimes I’ll have some surprising results (“voice of Krysta Rinke” comes to mind) and today is such a day.

Somebody accessed my blog by searching for “about to get my Todd on.” What does that even mean? If you’re the individual who found my blog this way, can you please explain it to me? If you’re not that person, go ahead and take a shot too — just keep it clean please.

Hold onto your butts…

I’ll get to the “Why go to worship?” series shortly, but in the meantime, I’ll be upgrading to the new version of WordPress soon. No worries, I’ve made backups AND read up on how to restore those backups. However, I have a history rife with blog-failure and total deletion is not outside the realm of possibility.

I don’t know if prayers are appropriate, but if you feel they are, feel free to offer one or two up for me.

See you soon.
