20250511-1658. Behold! I have tweaked the Animated Headline widget by Elementor!

That’s correct! I’m back to designing my weblog site using the paid upgrade (annual).

I had refunded earlier and then re-purchased shortly thereafter! I knew I couldn’t pass-up a good deal.

And I was envious and jealous enough to try my hand or paws at web designing!

So far, I am enjoying every minute of tweaking the constant changes in my weblog site’s appearances and layouts!

And because the Archives template behaves like an Index template which serves as a “fallback” template, its “Archive Title” block is knocked-out / useless for pulling my “latest posts” which is displayed on my homepage!

Lo and behold! My coconut head slowly but surely saw something that might have been and is VERY useful: the Animated Headline widget!

I needed some sort of “placeholder” for the missing “Archive Title” block to my three “latest posts” on my homepage and the Animated Headline widget fulfilled this missing piece!

I had set a text “Welcome to” before and an exclamation mark after the Headline, respectively. But this does NOT work for the “Archive Title” block that is NOT missing, such as for the “latest posts”.

So I’m grateful that the Advanced settings allowed fallbacks, too! I then set a text “our” before and another text “page” after the Headline, respectively, again!

But this time there is a “Fallback” feature for the missing “Archive Title” block, in which I set a text as “our weblog site!”

For example, if I pulled-up the Month of May 2025 the “Archive Title” block would display simply as “Month: May 2025” without the “Animated Headline widget.

But since the background containing the “Archive Title” widget is empty, huge and annoying for my three “latest posts” on my homepage, the Animated Headline widget would display the “missing” “Archive Title” block as “Welcome to our Month: May 2025 page!

There are nine animated Shapes: Circle; Curly; Underline; Double; Double Underline; Underline Zigzag; Diagonal; Strikethrough; and X!

I was using the Circle Shape, but I changed that Shape to the Underline Shape for faster results! Voila!

I’m happy now that my front homepage, nay, my whole weblog site is looking snazzy but still has a traditional feel.

The sunset is shining brightly and strong. And my elderly father is taking his late afternoon power nap.

20250511-1329. Yay! After reverting back to “default” my messed up “Global Settings”, I could see the nice pinkish fonts against whitish background from theme Hello! I’ve retained some presidential colors of bloody-encrusted maroon, stone cold beige and dark blue suits, especially for the “Title” elements! By bringing together both worlds of fruity and masonic color palette schemes, I’m happy with my weblog site!

I already had the presidential theme saved for the basic templates, such as the Header, Footer, Single Post, Single Page, Archive, Search Results, Loop Item (I still do NOT know WTF this serves) and Error 404. And so copy and pasting the styles and elements were somewhat easier and faster. I learned to click directly into the Containers to copy and paste the styles; while I click directly into the Elements within to copy and then use my keyboard shortcut Control V to paste into and while the Container is still selected.

(Once again, this particular theme builder is NOT that intuitive at least for me and in my opinion. The user must click directly INTO each selection to make the “copy” stick or else the “paste” items would end up scattered somewhere else within the “Structure” display.)

For the Single Post and or Single Page, I believe the idiot Archive template is serving both formats! What’s the point of having all three template is one is over-riding the other two? This particular theme building is sheer nonsense; which I why I keep switching themes and WP and Elementor builders!

So my Header is light and contains two Navigation menu items and one Site Title image.

The Content section varies. But I stuck the Share Buttons, Author and my favorite WP widgets here.

My Footer is dark and contains my two versions of former and new Site Titles and Site Taglines, too; a blogroll of only four external site links; a Button for following my useless Reader Feed link because team Happiness Engineers failed to update me on my bug report to this effect, the Jetpack Search, which has its limits because the user would have to pay hundreds of dollars just for an upgrade; and my Copyrighted stuff, which has an automatic feature which changes the each year! Now how cool is that?

The current time is 1344 PM PT. My elderly father just came downstair to single his hunger and readiness for lunch from and by his usual triple birb tweet/eat sound! The sun shine is shining and has been especially VERY bright since yesterday and somewhat today. Yesterday the temperature was 94ºF! I watered our wildflowers for bees and hummingbirds project this morning and that’s about it besides tweaking my weblog using both WP blocks and Elementor theme builder. Hurrah!

End of transmission 1346 PM PT.

20250511-0205. After I queried LEO AI Brave for the cleanest and quickest WP theme, I narrowed down my choice back to theme Hello! I liked the pink color against light background and the sans-serif fonts are normal and easy on the eyeballs.

I had to go through all of my pages and set each “Align” element from either Full-Width or Wide-Width (Max 1200px wide) back to None (Max 800px wide) because the Full-Width went beyond the margins of visibility. Adjusting the left and right Paddings did NOT help.

And I didn’t like the extra “indented” gap in between the Wide-Width to the left and the None width when I tried a “staggered” pattern in which all the affected Details blocks were set originally as Full-Width and while its “contents” were set to Wide-Width (Max 1200px wide).

And so I had to set all the affected Details block and its Contents to None width! This is because theme Hello handles these elements VERY well and enough so that the margins and paddings were set in such as way that the display of my “content”, well, was VERY clean!

So with the “pages” knocked outta the way. I then tackled the “posts”, which I set to display the three most recent blog entries. And after I clicked and sampled a few of my OLD posts, I noticed that the comments needed its other missing companions: share and like!

Thank goodness I have my paid Jetpack Boost upgrade whatever! From my left sidebar “Dashboard” > Tools > Marketing > Sharing Buttons (tab), I checked all boxes to “Show like and sharing buttons on” “Posts”, “Pages” and “Media”, except “Front Page, Archives Page, and Search Results”.

Then for the button style, I selected Icon & Text instead of Icon Only, Text Only, and Official Buttons. I edited the sharing buttons by selecting all possible buttons. I did NOT “Add “More” button to “be shown in a dropdown under the “More” button.” Because I wanted the viewers with eyeball problems to see easily the text and the icons, instead of taking the extra steps of clicking around the drop-down menu items.

And of course I would “save changes” each time.

So that’s it for now. I like the bare-bones display of pink color against white background of my weblog site. The ability to add more to the footer and header is limited to paid upgrades.

I activated the theme Hello Elementor plug-in but everything was a mess from my previously “saved” versions and I did NOT have the patience to readjust everything!

So I deactivated and then deleted the plug-in. Maybe I might try again. But I’m just okay with this current version.

So I’ll have to just let this one go for now and figure out what to do next.

20250510-1807. There comes a time when there is a stopping point: there is NO point to continue in vain – hoping, wanting and waiting for nothing, and knowing that there are tons of other and probably nicer weblog sites than mine.

Being a newbie or noob, I know nothing about designs or designing but simply borrow, copy, mimic, parrot and or steal other ideas. I simply go by feelings or feelz (this is my word) and laugh and giggle along the way.

I truly was having fun learning how to report bugs, and then kicking my self AFTERWARDS, because that is how the mighty-matrix has been poking fun and or “training” unto moi. I was so used to “holding hands” by reaching out to others that I got lazy to self-educate myself!

For example and within minutes of “reaching out” – some taking longer than others, the mighty-matrix manifests the answers in front of my face – as if “here you go, idiot! Now work with it!”

This has been true at my jobs that paid really good. I try NOT to ask questions as that appears to be my weakness. So I try to pretend that I know everything. But in fact, the mighty-matrix has been holding out, hoping that I would learn eventually without asking for help.

This was and has NOT been the case. So I learned how to ask help from the Holy Spirit for guidance. Prayers appear to work for me in my opinion.

And like yesterday’s live stream, that Live show/Video guy mentioned how he’ll just let us find out the hard way. Everything in his opinion is in opposition to my personal observation. So we would probably clash for eternity in person.

For example, I believe the earth is flat but NOT flat in the sense that the topographical or surface area of our hellish planet has peaks and valleys and thusly so our earth has rugged terrains. But our earth is like a bowl or container with edges.

His double-speak is one that I dislike disdainfully, which is like throwing innocents into the flames and giggling at their fateful demise while wondering if they would get themselves outta any precarious predicament. See?

Anyways, the sunshine is still bright! And I’m happy to report that my aches and pains are still ever-more present but has subsided just a little / tad bit!

I’m learning to come outta my shut-in, introverted, and insulated lifestyle and opting to do more yard work and or gardening, too! This process has been slow and ongoing! I do find outdoors activities rather gratifying; for I do need to connect more with the elements – earth and sun! Plus, petroleum-laden outdoors air is much more refreshing than indoors stale air, which is NOT so because I air out our house at least downstairs every day!

I’m learning to pray and mediate more often in my own personal devotional ways, too! I am learning that we are supposed to pray and mediate constantly. I’ve noticed that I still do rant and rave and still have my potty mouth and bantering and mumblings under my breath! I must be vindictive after what had happen with those alleged crooked “INVESTORS” to say the least and to which the OLD guy referenced to settle that stuff with the Holy Spirit / Ghost. Sheesh.

Anyways, I tried combining all my pages under the FRONT-COVER page. But I had to re-publish the static pages, because the load-time and responsiveness were too slow, especially with ALL the extra clutter (again). And so I simply inserted Paragraph blocks linking to my re-published static pages, which garner little to NO hits and or views!

For some strange reason, my Header refused earlier to accept my two Navigation blocks! I was pissed-off again.

Then again, I am assuming and always blaming others like team Happiness Engineers, who were blocking-out probably and or nudging and winking and nodding subtly into my direction – where my stubborn coconut head believes simply that I got to have it “MY WAY”: You know, like that popular cocktail lounge song by TB!

So I resigned to the fate of just deleting my two Navigation blocks in the Header above and in their places, inserted the Search block, which was accepted by the freaky Header!

The Footer was well-behaved and I had NO problem with that design.

Oh, I liked and will keep probably theme Clairevoyant after failing to force theme Blank Canvas behave like theme Clairevoyant. I tend to FORCE my ideals upon everything, which brings me to why I can’t seem to “mind my own business”!

I have since reduced my Twatter rantings, such as my recent suggestion for an Orientalized Pope. I guess the Americanized version has lots of followers at the homeland to boot. So I’m NOT disappointed, though we’ll find out within six month’s time, if he survives, too.

Yes, I do tend to borrow, copy and “share” (this is the correct word now that I come to think of the word “steal” has been posted improperly here on our weblog site all this time) his stuff by referencing him as the “OLD guy”, which he really is “that” OLD – considering that he has been waiting in vain for too long for many souls to repent unsuccessfully.

But I’m hoping the rest will repent within his six month’s timeframe. I wonder if the affected group in his blogs could follow suit, knowing that obeying the real deal might be a better deal than obeying something that is created by the real deal and would be rendered probably non-existent instantly by our Heavenly Father, if ever.

Yeah, I’m just free blogging and not really making sense. Perhaps, my true followers whom I probably haven’t really met in person to date, would know probably what I’m talking about! Sheesh.

See? This particular post went on too long. That’s all. End of blathering, another word which I’m borrowing from that OLD guy. 1838 PM PT. Edited 1847 PM PT.

20250510-1637. On or about 1530-1532 PM PT one hour ago or so, I was still lying on bed and barely coming outta my nap.

My eyelids were still closed. Sometimes I could hear myself snored myself awake slightly.

The sunshine to my left was lit brightly through the bedroom window as I saw a purplish haze and a circular formation and maybe some purplish clouds and maybe a human-like figure within but way way way far away in the distance that the human-like figure seemed so tiny inside that purplish portal.

Of course, I connected towards the swirling purplish vision. I praised and thanked our Heavenly Father. I asked forgiveness and tried vainly to repent of all my past misdeeds sins and anything connected with my ancestry and anything ongoing that needs His guidance through the Holy Spirit and His Son.

That’s all I have to say. This would be probably the second or third time connecting spiritually in this manner.

The previous occurrence was when I was lying down in bed and the sunshine was VERY bright, too, through the bedroom window to my left. The wooden horizontal slats or blinds were fully upward and opened to the closed double-paned acrylic window.

In this previous occurrence, I observed be a bluish city through a bluish portal in which a bluish entity with two eyeballs and the appearance of a humanoid – peered through that bluish portal but the portal was up to its waist and it was coming and peering through a slightly “right-handed” perspective but I was observing straight-away.

I could sense its curiosity as to why and how my presence was recognized. And I might have seen or sensed with my dream vision of its curiosity as one would observe when someone places its fingers or hands underneath its chin.

End of dream vision 1649 PM PT.

20250510-0904. Whatever happened behind the scene is fixed: The Author Biography block displays the latest About Me updates via Gravatar and WP.

When I reported these bugs from my end a few days ago, nothing was shared about their findings from their end until this morning.

Per an email, I got was some stupid screenshots after I told THEM that I fixed it from my iPhone!

What these “numbskulls full of mush” (a sound bite from a late radio talk show personality “El Rushbeau” – my spelling) failed to acknowledge was the goof from their end!

Again, THEY blamed the web browsers and something about clearing the cache and or cookies as their final answer. Idiots.

One day when I updated my About Me sections for both Gravatar and WP from my Brave web browser app for macOS version, I saw the saved updates.

But when I inserted the Author Biography block from my same Brave web browser for desktop version, the updates were NOT showing!

I reported the bug for both Brave and Safari apps before I saved and saw the updates from my iPhone – one day afterwards!

For whatever reason, the “original” updates via the Brave and or Safari apps for both the macOS and or iPad did NOT display the correct Biographical Info – About Me sections into the Author Biography block!

So after I discovered (too late) that the “td textarea description hidden element” was VISIBLE on the Brave app for iPhone only and was HIDDEN on the Brave app for macOS and iPad, I was pissed-off!

I was able to save the updates via the Jetpack app and or Brave app for iPhone only. Only then was the Biographical Info – About Me sections reflected correctly into the Author Biography block!

From my past experiences and today, I am really losing my patience and faith in team Happiness Engineers, which probably get their giggles off on lower-end consumers like me but give their full and undivided attentions to millionaires and billionaire only and pronto, too.

Prove unto moi incorrect! Phooey. End of ranting 0923 AM PT.

20250510-0649. I am now gonna test the second mysterious template. But first I have to save this post as a draft. I’ll return soon.

The current time is now 0650 AM PT. I have converted this classic editor into blocks. Now I will change template from Single Post to the second mysterious template.

Here goes. End transmission 0651 AM PT.

Addendum: Forget it. I revert page to original “Single Post” templates. I guess team Happiness Engineers were tweaking my website from behind the scenes. I do NOT know if I should delete the two mysterious “testing” templates. End transmission 0701 AM PT.

20250510-0644. I am testing two mysterious templates that were edited on or about one hour ago. First I’ll save this Classic editor version in Draft mode and then over-ride or swap-out the default template with both mysterious templates in this one test page.

The current time is now 0646 AM PT. I converted the classic to blocks. Now I’ll test the first template from Single Post to testing. I forgot that I should create two pages and test each mysterious template separately.

Here goes. End transmission 0648 AM PT.

20250509-1724. Welp, I tweaked my front cover, which loads faster from my end. Instead of the clutter of nine links inside its own Cover blocks within the Bento Grid pattern, five links of recent highlights and one Button for subscribing to our blog, I’ve opted for the three Cover blocks; one with the Image block of Chemtrails and two randomized links to our blog posts and bible verses (31,104)!

The right sidebar is default for two theme Clairevoyant templates: Pages and Single Posts. This right sidebar already sports the following default blocks: Featured Image, ten Latest Posts, Categories List (for Our Bible, Our Pages, Our Posts and Our Sites), and Button (for subscribing to our blog). I left the other five outta seven default Clairevoyant templates untouched: All Archives, Blog Home, Index, Page 404 and Search Results.

Since the right sidebar displays already whatever Button blocks were linking to our weblog site, I had NO choice but to tweak the front cover page. I did NOT want the overwhelming feeling of clicking fatigue!

The current time is 1742 PM PT. I just tweaked further the first Cover block to include the duplicated Elementor “Hero” pattern, which clones / mirrors the Header above as “Your Daily Pause: Flynn’s Blogs. God’s Words.” and the Footer below as “Flynn and Paws: Small Minds. Unheard Voices.”.

I might wanna tweak further my Front-Cover page due to these right sidebar duplications! But that would mean removing my Image block of Chemtrails and displaying only two randomized links to our blog posts and bible verses!

I might as well just have an image of my REAL visage to prove that I’m “for real”. But y’all might barf / throw-up / vomit at the sight! So to play it safe, I have NOT posted an image of my butt-ugly face on any of my social media sites and I could describe only what I might appear in person.

That’s all. End transmission 1747 PM PT. Edited 1750 PM PT.

20250509-1310. Believe it or NOT, I’ve been (trying to keep) busy, mostly in part due to piling up unfinished tasks per my Reminders app!

Yesterday, my neck was still outta place and I still feel numbness in my right hand.

Lo and behold! I felt relief after praying for guidance and while still seated in front of my computer desk! I turned slowly my head to the left and right to stretch the offending demonic possession.

After my elderly father told me that he would pull some weeds, which was him using his OLD, very heavy green-colored metal spike into the soil below and past the ginger rocks above, I jumped outta my computer chair!

I had rationalized and or received an incoming thought of inspiration that, hey, I should mow the front lawn now instead of waiting until tomorrow Friday!

Furthermore, I rationalized to myself that I needed my dad’s help to tidy and sweep-up after mowing his two lawns: the glass clippings would get strewed mostly upon our driveway, our entry walkway, and maybe here and there upon the perimeter of our front yard lawn and backyard lawn areas, too!

Moreover, I rationalized to myself that I need discard my glass clippings for the Friday morning pick-up of our three city-provided carts (black for garbage, gray with blue lid recyclables, and olive-green yard trimmings).

Thank goodness I purchased through AMZN extra battery packs for my cheapest most lightweight cordless red and black CRAFTSMAN lawnmower (one extra pair for a total of four batteries) and for my green-colored cordless electric blower (one extra pair for a total of three batteries).

Since all we close to fully-charged, I plowed through the front yard and backyard at my dad’s request. I was planning only to mow his front yard lawn, assuming that the two battery-packs were enough for one lawn and NOT for two lawns.

And because I used the newest pair of batteries from AMZN, I managed to mow both lawns – front and back in one charge!

I had enough “energy”, thanks to drinking my colorful sports drink – half from last week and one bottle yesterday! I had to pause or rest in between after my heart palpitations were too much for me. But I do NOT feel “pain” – just outta breath sometimes.

Then after mowing the lawns, I would use my cordless electric blower. The most mess were the dried leaves stuck in between our front yard lawn perimeter AND underneath our new black chain link fence!

I really would like my money back from those alleged crooked “INVESTORS”; so that I could improve the northwestern area of maintenance; demo our second story and then maybe improve the interior and exterior, such as paint jobs and other spackling.

Yes, y’all thought that I wanted to help “THEM”. FU. I was helping myself, because I knew you asshole would NEVER help me, except that other guy. Yup. Bunch of leaches, parasites, religious and political frauds, gangs, scams, scammers!

Anyways, I’ve been “forced” to water our wildflowers for bees and hummingbirds projects underneath both of our Saratoga Laurel trees, which the property owners did NOT like from the city-approval process. But I prayed over the trees and the flowers and hope that it’s okay for everyone.

In my coconut head, this effort is kinda sorta like a personal “community service” for the city and the public and most especially as my physical, emotional, mental and spiritual therapy. Because I have no desire to go outdoors, such as walking or gardening.

But because the property owner is elderly, I am FORCED to provide assistance as part of my care-giving to this VETERAN. And y’all know what it is like dealing and or living with elderly VETERANS, who in my opinions are troubled-souls or just stubborn simplly.

Yeah, so today Friday, I awoke early on or about 0700 AM PT. I felt refreshed but my neck was still outta place and painful. My right hand is still numb and painful too.

But with incoming thoughts of inspiration, I had to bend all the way down to touch my toes; so that I could stretch the entire spine, especially the upper back, should and neck area where I believe the pinching occurs and radiates and extends the pain towards my affected right hands. I do NOT have carpal tunnel syndrome.

So after stretching briefly, I hauled back our yard trimming cart and then went about to water our wildflowers for bees and hummingbirds projects located underneath both of our city-approved Saratoga Laurel trees in our northwestern area of maintenance.

I flushed-out and refilled the birdbath and saw the lovely pair of red robins birds going about the ground-level area of our parakeet pet cemetery near the birdbath. I then watered briefly the back yard lawn.

Then I went out front to pull-out some dried and or dying yellow oxalis flowers. I can’t recall but I intercepted another hauler twice – carts for the black garbage and gray recyclables.

Then I further pull-out more dried and drying plant life forms; since my dad locked the side gate to pull-in the gray recyclables. He then offered to sweep-up my dried and drying plant life forms.

He seems to be excitable this morning. Then like clockwork, I was being mean and nasty and then I couldn’t listen to him while trying to complete my unfinished tasks withheld for one week. I was being lazy and tired.

Now I’m listening to that Live show/Video guy. Dad reminded me that his laundry is finished. But I couldn’t peel my eyeballs from off my computer while blogging. Then I had to prepare lunch again.

The current time is 1350 PM PT. End of transmission.

20250508-1040. Howdy! I am testing three blocks: Author, Author Biography and Author Name.

Below are the three samples, which displays the current and correct information profile, especially for and in the “Author Biography” block.

Two days ago, I’ve changed / edited / updated successfully My Profile on WP and About Me on Gravatar.

But when I inserted the “Author Biography” block, the block persisted to display the incorrect / OLD information profile!

I saw that the “Author Biography” block pulled-through the incorrect / OLD information profile from “Biographical Info” section located under the “profile.php” web page – where using the Brave and Safari apps for desktop and iPad versions displayed only the link “Manage on WP.com ↗”.

Yesterday, I was able to over-ride successfully the Profile > “Biographical Info” section located under the “profile.php” web page – where using the Brave and Safari apps for iPhone displayed the “open box”.

Please fix it. That’s all. Thanks.

20250507-1833. Behold! I am trying theme Clairevoyant, which is now available for Personal plans or already included with my legacy plan, which I was thinking of getting rid of and downgrading to a Free or Personal plan anyways.

And this is because I really shouldn’t have paid for an upgrade, which is currently a Business plan. I feel like I’m NOT getting the support for whenever I report any alleged bugs along the way!

I was planning of getting rid of my domain name, too; because I read a recent blog article about how we are just “renting” our domain name(s). This makes sense since everything in these false realities is temporary and we can’t really take all our memories with us in the VERY end!

Anyways, I like this theme! I like the strong grid layout and how each vital parts or sections are cordoned-off or compartmentalized nicely in its own tiny niche, much like any associations, groups, cults, memberships, organizations and the like – from politics to religion and everything else!

There are only two color themes: default light and dark! I chose the dark, because that’s less painful for my eyeballs! Heck, wherever possible, I would set my social media and my WP Admin color schemes to include “dark”!

However, I refuse to “go black” and pride myself in being pale to brownish anyways! See? I’m NOT racist! My own “kinds” are racist based on different dialects! And though we try our best to understand each other and still have a difficult time trying to “get along”!

How much more challenging when dealing and participating with others outside our own “kinds”? Based on my online social media observations, our evaluations have failed and per the OLD guy, some remnants were spared. See?

This theme Clairevoyant sports a basic two-column version with the “sidebar” located on the right. The right “sidebar” includes “default” blocks for: Feature Image; ten Latest Posts; Categories List (which I stream-lined last night down to four categories: Our Bible; Our Pages; Our Posts; and our Sites); and Button to “subscribe to my blog”!

The Header is one narrow row to include the “default” blocks: Site Title; Site Tagline and Navigation.

The Footer is also one narrow row to include the “default” blocks: Site Title (again); Credits (which I changed from the host of my weblog site to my Copyrights and then I decided to share my former Site Tagline as “Small Mind. Unheard Voices.” and lastly Site Icons.

This theme is a keeper, too! I do NOT know for how long I wish to keep this theme Clairevoyant!

I may tweak further my Main Menu Navigation block located on the top right-hand corner of my Header, because the hover-over for one drop-down menu item refuses to respond normally!

So I’ll tweak the main static pages to include links to the children pages, if possible. But for some reason the OLD short-codes for sub-pages do NOT seem to function correctly.

I’ll probably change the Reading Setting (again) from two static pages back to my latest posts.

That’s all for now. End of transmission 1855 PM PT. Edited 1902 PM PT.
