20250222-2250. Greetings, chumps! The whole day and night has been blessed and mysteriously calm and quite. Thanks to Our Heavenly Father. Amen.
And just like that, I got bored with theme Blank Canvas. This time I’m trying theme Nook! Finalizing this latest theme was easy enough after spending the whole day tweaking my new Sidebar Content pattern, which is aligned vertically at 33.33% width and its mirror pattern called Widget Content, which is a clone/mirror of the Features page.
I was frustrated as usual and wanted to squeeze in as many OLD timey WordPress widgets. After a few minutes of meditating on the next course of action, I decided enough is enough and inserted the Page List block, which was in alphabetical order.
However, this alphabetically-sorted Page List block did NOT look good and I was forced to assign parents to some pages. Unfortunately, I had to go into one Navigation menu block to tweak each links to reflect the correct/new “pathway”! Fortunately, the Navigation menu blocks for all 66 KJV audio books were still intact after assigning parent pages.
I do NOT understand how after assigning parent pages to some are still intact while others are NOT intact, meaning if should I decide to reassign the location of parent pages, those would NOT “stick” and result as “page NOT found”. That’s annoying. In the past, I remember barely that we could move our pages around without having to worry about the “base” or original assigned location of the Navigation link.
Oh, I see. It’s 2259 PST and I received an incoming thought that perhaps, assigning what are duplicate test pages underneath the “Post pages”/Blog Home template or in this case the Index page as the Latest posts knocks out the children as NOT being found. I thought any pages would NOT knock out how the Navigation links point to the “page”.
Anyways, I also tweaked the FRONT-COVER twice, one with the Link in Bio pattern sporting five Filled (and NOT Outline) buttons and then later on just plugging in the Author block and followed by the Author biography pattern in place of the Link in Bio pattern on the very top just like the Intro to Blogger/Blogspot webpages.
I wanted to design my blog for the Mobile view (since I’m using more frequently with smartphone/mobile device than desktop or tablet) and a higher Jetpack Boost Mobile Score of “A”. But the design was, well, too plain and drab and too “san-serif” for my taste, which is the curly “serif” fonts!
So here we are with theme Nook and the normal black and white, two-column spread with the right sidebar column. I like it so far. But then I’ll know I’ll get bored with the look, because nothing seems to “stick” (again).
