20241223-2302. Welp, I got tired using the theme Blank Canvas and I saved a copy my “Front page” as one of “My Patterns” in case I changed my mind and revert back to the previous theme.
Last night, I’ve cleaned-up and deleted many OLD patterns that I wanted to keep. But I realized that I couldn’t remember what I wanted to see. So I reduced 18 pages of 20 patterns per page to 76 patterns in total.
These 76 patterns include mostly my sub-pages within my three main pages: FlynnsBlogs, FlynnsAngels, and KingJamesBibleVerses.
These three main pages already have the “blocks” of these “duplicated” patterns. I wanted a spare “copy” of these sub-pages somewhere else just in case I delete something in error.
I also changed the status of the individual/single KJV bible verses from Published to Draft and kept only the main 66 pages (or books) as Published. This was because the randomized “code” didn’t seem to work for my one and only randomized “button”.
I discovered a “free” plug-in that allows for “randomized posts”. With this latest theme 2025, there is a nifty “sidebar” which I butchered-down to just one paragraph containing that “code” for my “randomized posts”. This is located on the “Right column”.
For the “left column”, this would be the normal reversed-chronological hierarchical “blog”. So I guess I’ll go back blogging here and except a bunch of creepy brownish shats outside the USA to read my crap.
So I now just deleted a couple of plug-ins that I no longer needed. I’m trying to just keep the “default” plug-ins in case I decided to stop all of my upgrades and keep the free version.
I still have two more years left from my plan. It’s expensive and really meant for professionals. I’m just an amateur blogger and really should just stick to the free version.
I just viewed my beautiful blog from the Jetpack app for iPhone. I liked the simplicity and dark theme. I liked the different default “styles” offered in this latest theme 2025.
If y’all will notice, the pagination shows 3,054 blog posts. Most are set to Private mode because some contain OLD comments and lots of personal information.
So the most recent blogs from last month to this most would be posted as Published.
I like both the header and footer “styles” and how the width of my blog responds automatically and fits nicely to my iPhone.
The patterns offered by theme 2025 has more of the basic stuff that I forgot, such as “Query Loop” and query “No Results”.
In place of the “Content” element which displays the entire LONG-READ blog posts, I prefer and use the “Excerpt” element. This forces the REALLY curious humanz to click the “Read more” link and reduces hopefully the bots and trolls from “crawling”.
I think I’ll blog here for now until I get sick and tired of NOT being able to block out those creepy brownish shats from viewing my content.
I’ll continue to “blog” over at Twatter but will mostly query the Grok and post Answers by Grok for recent news.
That’s all for now. Thanks for reading my blog. End 2329 PST.
