Update: tsnX Database Conversion @ 50%

Ok, so I’m converting the tsnV database into one that will work with the tsnX database structure. What this will do is bring our posts, user accounts, and forums over from the old site and make it work with the mods and settings of the new site. It’s something I have not done before, but is apparently going rather smoothly.

I spent all night working on it, and then another 3 hours today already, and am going to take a break from it. But once the database conversion is finished, and I revisit the bugs in the code, I’ll load the database, and start working on the site design.

The theme that I’m going to be working off of is just going to be a re-coded subSilver theme. If you want to use the theme as I build it, to be one of the first to experience the tsnX feel, then feel free to do so. However, the theme is going to be in the alpha phase, which will guarantee nothing as far as it’s ability to function is concerned. So if I’m working on something, and the theme breaks, and it’s not something that I can fix immediately, then you will most likely be SOL until I get it fixed, as far as using the site is concerned.

For this purpose if you wish to create a separate user on the site and use the settings for it to work with everything beta, then that will be acceptable. Just name your user account _beta so that you can distinguish which is which, and we’ll still know who you are.

I am a web programmer, system integrator, and photographer. I have been writing code since high school, when I had only a TI-83 calculator. I enjoy getting different systems to talk to each other, coming up with ways to mimic human processes using technology, and explaining how complicated things work.

Of my many blogs, this one is purely about the technology projects, ideas, and solutions that I have come across in my internet travels. It's also the place for technical updates related to my other sites that are part of The-Spot.Network.
