20220930-2334. I’ve been getting email notifications that my website is burping. Currently, my tummy hurts and probably from eating a good supper.
But that’s besides the point: I read the online documentation rather quickly and figured that my only other option was to revert back to “the more minimal, default […] theme”.
So instead of showing excerpts, this current theme shows the full text in the front/home page feed instead of clicking “read more” and then viewing the full text in a “single-post” template.
Since hardly any entity bothers to read my stuff, I’ve decided to present my amateur blog in DARK mode! That’s correct! The background is darker while the text and links are lighter!
The theme colors are simple lighter green, darker green, black, white, grayish. So to make things simple and consistent, the background is black while the text is gray and links are lighter green.
Voila! I almost lost my customized header and footer. Thank goodness I remembered to “save” each “group” as its own “reusable block” which renamed uniquely as “header-group-by-flynn” and “footer-group-by-flynn”.
I made the mistake of deleting two of my original “Templates Parts” that were Added by [username]. So now the “Templates Parts” section shows my two new uniquely renamed customizations.
I was going through each of the Templates to make sure the Footer and Header were consistently the same when for whatever reason I deleted the original customizations.
Thank goodness I had several of the Templates already opened in separate window browsers where I could save the Footer and Header as its own reusable blocks.
Whatever. I really should do a video or podcast as a practice walk-thru of how confusing and yet exciting Gutenberg blocks can be used creatively.
I’ll be my own “video gal” like my favorite podcaster who is continuously plagued by his own “video guy” messing up stuff.
That’s all. FlynnsPaws. Hehe. 20220930-2355.
