WordPress links to stories not working [RESOLVED]

WordPress how I love loathe love hate admire… I can’t decide.
I will say this. WordPress has saved me a lot of time. I can focus on the important aspects rather than minor and sometimes boring details.

So I ran across another issue with WordPress today. I made some minor changes and suddenly all the links to my stories stopped working. I checked my admin, all of the stories are still there. My homepage showed all the abstracts to my articles. But suddenly

none of the links to my stories are working!!!

How did I solve it? It was actually very simple. RESET. No I don’t mean a computer restart. I don’t mean refeshing the page. I mean I reset.

Life is just like that. Sometimes we need to reset. When it comes to our daily lives, often times that means stopping to ask forgiveness. In our own way, we can screw things up pretty good if we try to do it all on our own. So we need to come to the cross and ask Jesus to forgive us. We need to reset. Start fresh.

And so just like in life, I reset. To solve the issue of wordpress links not working, I went to settings > permalinks. Re-entered my custom permalink tag. And clicked Save Settings.

And so my issue of links to articles not working was resolved. And once again my site was functioning properly.

Really dig Fresh for Android

So I’ve had my HTC hero for a while and decided it and decided it was time to try rooting. loving all of the freedoms it gives you. It’s your phone might as well have fill access to it. I’ll report my findings soon.

Christmas present unwrapping round 1

So we survived the first round of gift unwrapping. My wife’s mother always goes crazy with what she gets for the kids.

Getting Started on several topics

So I’ve finally pushed this live. I’m still not entirely happy with the design. Its a little too heavy for my taste but the layout works in the manner I want. So I am pushing this live. I’m going to experiment with the design elements and work on a more mobile friendly version.

Still going to do a pirate theme but that will take more effort than I have time right now.

Additionally I finally stepped into the world of smart phones. I debated cost / benefit of the iPhone. But in the end I found the HTC Hero by Sprint to be just as accessible and quite a bit easier on the wallet. The coverage of Sprint is excellent for my territories. Not to mention an unlimited everything plan for my wife and myself. Can’t complain.

Good Afternoon. Great Weather!

So the weather is beautiful today. Absolutely incredible. The temps are in the low 70s and the humidity is barely noticeable.

In other news. I decided today would be as great a day as any to give WordPress a try. And so far I’m really impressed. The initial setup was a breeze.The cms is simply brilliant. Little things like a word count really make a difference. As to the product itself. I am really digging that comments and a search field are automatically installed. For a free pricetag this would be hard to beat.

Now I’m looking forward to seeing how far I can push the limits on the layout.

Goal: To find out if WordPress can take on the look and feel of  a website without looking like a blog.

Goal 2: TO CREATE A PIRATE THEME
