Figured it Out
Time - 2:45 a.m.
Why am I up so late, you ask? I’ve been figuring out that I have it made by using iPowerweb as a web host for most of my websites. I discovered this while trying to set up a Wordpress blog on the Josh Martin Band website, which is hosted through Yahoo. The problem lied in having to set up a MySQL database (of which I know nothing about) using phpMyAdmin (which I know nothing about). I then had to update the wp-config.php file in Wordpress to reflect the database name, user name and password. By using an extremely small amount of logic and a whole lot of luck, I finally figured it out. The glory of iPowerweb is that it does all of this automatically. Yahoo does not.
Next up will be importing our current blog to the new blog. Soon after, I’ll unveil the new site design I’ve been working on, complete with a photo gallery, sound clips, and hopefully an online store in the near future. At the rate of tonight’s developments, we should see the new JMB site by 2009. Goodnight…
