Getting Going Again

Hi All!

I am in the process of getting the site up and running again. Why not, right?  I seem to have some time on my hands lately…

The first thing that you’ll notice is a major theme change.  We have been using the old one for well over a year so it was extremely stale.  We are also integrating the site with our phones so that we can do some remote posting (more to come on this feature).

We appreciate everyone’s patience as we bring on the new features (facebook and twitter anyone?).

That’s all for now.

Peace,

Kelley and Laura

Death of a Cable Modem

We are back online after a brief, unplanned hiatus.

North Texas has seen it’s share of spring thunderstorms this year (as usual).  The one that hit us early Tuesday morning managed to take out our cable modem.

Time Warner came by yesterday and replaced our cooked little critter and we are back up and running.

Site News

I did some work on the site this morning.

The forms weren’t working.  They’re fixed now.  If you tried to use our contact form in the last week or so, please try again.

There may also be some missing images on olders posts.  I am making the executive decision to just let them go.  This was part of the update to the latest wordpress.  I am all about simplification these days and am tired of having to fiddle with things after every update to get the site back up and running.

That’s all for now.

Gallery Maintenance Complete!

I think that I have everything straightened out now.

There were a TON of spam comments that had to be dealt with.  They are all gone now.  From this point forward any commenting done on the site will be moderated – that way I can delete it before it ever gets to the site.

I am tentatively thinking that I have the php error problem fixed as well, so a good week all around for the photo gallery.

Gallery Maintenance Update

Whilst performing this latest round of maintenance to heal our little photo gallery I found that it had succumbed to a deluge of spam comments.

There were well north of 4000 junk comments on there and the number was climbing.  I found that there was a new version of gallery available with better comment filtering so we have jumped up to that now.

Using akismet, I am in the process of filtering all that junk off and deleting it.  There will most likely be some performance hit as I do this, so for the next few days please bear with us.

Problems with the Photo Gallery

We are having some periodic problems with our photo gallery.

If you get an error or the page doesn’t load, just give it some time to reset and then check back later.  The system will correct itself eventually.  I think I know what the problem is, but since I am at work it will be this evening before I can do anything about it.

Server Changes/Updates

I made some updates / changes to the server over the weekend that should pay off with a much snappier website.

Everything should be transparent to the end user but, as always, let me know if any errors or problems arise.

Site Upgrade

I just upgraded the site engine again…Everything looks to be ok.  I also added a new theme.

It seems like I am always posting about themes but here we go again.  This one has a nice, clean feel to it.

As always — let me know if there are any issues.

New Page Theme

I thought we might try a little different look for the page. This style is more in line with our photo gallery and gives the knlc domain a more unified look.

Thoughts anyone?
