Comics Changes

Well, I did something stupid…again, but I think it might work out.

I tried installing the Comic Easel plugin and then converted all the Animus Funnies posts to it…and then they wouldn’t work anymore. GRAAAAH!

But now they’re working, and I even have navigation buttons!

BUT

The Featured Content feature of the Suffusion theme doesn’t recognize the Comics post type, so the comics are no longer listed there. The latest comics are now listed in the sidebar separate from the other recent posts. Also, the comics navigation buttons are just below the latest comics list in the sidebar. For the life of me I can’t get them to appear in the comic posts like they’re supposed to.

It’s a minor inconvenience and I may go back to the way things were, but for now we’ll see how it goes. The French comics are staying the way they are.

Starting Over

UPDATE 3: Everything is back up! (Well everything I wanted back up…some old news posts I didn’t feel were worth putting back up)

UPDATE 2: All the stories and blogs are back up, including this week’s intended story (no blog for this week).

UPDATE 1: The Funnies (French and English) are all back up, including this week’s intended strips! Not only that, but the navigation problem is resolved. I found a plug-in that adds navigation tabs on posts of the category currently being viewed (they’re on the right and left of the screen when you’re in a post). There’s no button to go to the first post, but that’s an acceptable compromise for something that works on both the English and French strips. No more manual coding for me! WHEE!

I couldn’t get anything to work right anymore and after screwing things up worse and worse, I’m at the stage where I have to start over now. All my old blogs are lost, as is anything I wrote directly on the site (as opposed to writing in Word and cutting and pasting). Eventually I’ll get most of the content back up.
