The construction of a website
Last month I built a new web site called South of the Border. A self hosted WordPress site, it offered a greater potential to build a content management system alongside a traditional Blog. Anyhow, the server I was using collapse and went off the air and so too did all my work. Being the positive type, I have welcomed the opportunity to start again from scratch.
The New version is being hosted by Dreamhost where I have my own domain titled www.gregsweb.info . To get started, I installed WordPress 2.8 which has only been around for a week or so.
Then I installed the ‘Atahualpa’ theme which offers more than 200 configuration options. It allows for 0ne, two or three columns with a different format for every page if you want. The rest of the day will be spent configuring the theme to meet my requirememnts.
The front blog page and all search pages (categories, tags, archives, authors} will be a three column format with blog access (posts, comments, etc.) along with a tag cloud and site access details on the left. The posts will be featured in the centre whilst the right column will offer an events calendar and a daily editorial.
Take a look and add it to your favourites/bookmarks and watch it grow into something special.
