Day 6 of "As The Site Migrates", but it's a week later than I'd like because I have to support my rent habbit.
Most of this last week's been spent reading documentation, and making preliminary plans for doing the podcast/walkthroughs I mentioned in last week's update. None of that will happen until after the first of 2027, but I'm putting things together so I can more efficiently share this stuff with others as well as include a path for people to move to ClassicPress should they choose.
So definitely some recordings at least, and I'm thinking of working things to do a sort of Homebrew Website Club, except this one will be primarily focused on screen reader users. I'm still thinking through all the logistics, so nothing's written in stone.
Anyway, I've done some minimal work on templates, at least on the back end, and then today I was actually able to update all the plugins and take advantage of everything in the mega changelogs <a href="https://courtneyr.dev/">Courtney Robertson</a> and <a href="https://david.shanske.com/">David Shanske</a> are writing to go along with their plugin updates. Never read the comments, always read the change logs. And if you're writing plugins or apps or whatever, be like Courtney and David. Include all the things.
I probably won't get much past the reading and templates stages this week, but am hoping to get to some of the API connection issues at least next week, along with working on some more templating stuff and preparations for completely ditching IFTTT. It's gone for book stuffand for exercise posts I think, which it was never really good at anyway.
