Import WordPress? Not so straight forward.
Posted: under News.
In a recent piece of work we imported a client’s blog from WordPress.com. This is usually a fairly straight forward action whicha llows you to be up and running in no time at all.
In this instance, although the posts themselves were all imported ok, the image paths related to the old site.
In the original, the link to the images related to the post but on importing this command was lost and all links were to the old site. On changing the options and the html coding the site workded properly but only after some serious head scratching.

The folks at nest wanted their blog transferred from the WordPress.com server.
On the face of it a fairly straightforward procedure. Install latest WordPress to new server and import all the files from the old one.
There were a few issues with the transfer with importing not as foolproof as Wrodpress would have you believe.
Nevertheless the template – based on the very basic default – has been tweaked and the blog is up adn running with slickr-flickr, twitter and subscirbie widgets added. nest blog.

DB Studio – new blog
Posted: under Projects.
We have just completed the addition of a WordPress blog to DB Studio’s website.
Although an add on via the usual sub-domain, the client was keen to have the look and feel of main site’s home page similar to the blog.
We added functionality so that there was a WordPress type sidebar on the home page.
The blog has dynamic connections to the main social media websites of Twitter, Linkedin and Facebook.
