Site Updates

Informational posts on work being done on the site

New iPhone feature enabled

This week Jemma bought me a book on web design (you think she’s trying to tell me something lol)
It had a lot of useful tips. One of which was how to set your blogs site up so you can blog from your iPhone.
I guess it works with android phones to I just don’t have one I can test with.
I read it at work during lunch and couldn’t wait to get back and try it (yet another example of someone without much of a social life.)
With the stuff I’ve learned I’m hoping that Papiccio.com version 12 will be even better.


First Post on the new Papiccio.com Blog Site

Welcome to the new look and feel Papiccio.com blog site.

What is different about this site?

Well the first thing is that it is a different site. It is in fact a completely different Content Management System and resides on a different database. That is why you are prompted with a new login here. I have not integrated the two sites for the time being because I want to see whether this actually works well. If it does then I might invest in the money to merge the sites together.

What are some of the new features?

Well it uses Word Press which is designed primarily for blogging. This means that the experience is easier and more intuitive than the previous version of the blog section. It also has the distinct advantage of being able to create your posts in a word editor of your choice, in my Case Word 2010 from Microsoft, and publish directly to your blog.

It has a much nicer photo gallery option for posting pictures a well. I am maintaining my primary photo gallery but sometimes you just want to post a blog with some pictures in it. Now you can do it nicely.

You will have noticed the random header images as well. These are all photos taken by Jemma and I intend on using them on this site as a way to show case some of the really nice pictures she takes.

The site is fully integrated with Facebook so posts here can be made live through your Facebook profile.

Well that’s enough for a first post, you get the idea. I hope that people enjoy this version of the Papiccio Blogs.
