Lot of work
I installed WordPress on this site last night. I’m sure I spent over 2 hours just getting the layout tweaked to match the rest of the site. I’ve really not found a nice journal program that integrates easily with an existing layout or theme. Somebody should really get on writing a program like that. Maybe that can be a project for my spare time. HAHA.
I’ve also come to realize I really need to brush up on my PHP skills. WordPress does about everything in PHP and I can tweak what they’ve done but I know I couldn’t write original code to do this anymore. It really is true, use it or lose it. Thankfully, code comes pretty naturally to me so I think I can pick it back up quickly.
