Yrae Chronicles

The blog is pretty much done! It's all now powered by Wordpress, so all the links--like making a comment or clicking the categories and dates in the sidebar also work, and I can make posts to it and IT WORKS! I did break it on Saturday when it was SO CLOSE, only the mobile view was giving me sidescrolling and whatever I did to try and fix it... broke everything else. So I went off to bed in a huff and the next day played Banjo-Kazooie, but I was up to Rusty Bucket Bay there, which has always been my most hated and frustrating level, and so I just got myself more frustrated and didn't touch it again until tonight. But yes, all fixed now!

Also, for a delightful bit of serendipity, the mobile view now works on Internet Explorer! And Firefox picks up the fonts now! So now Opera is the only browser anywhere that it doesn't work in. So awesome. God I'm so proud of myself for figuring this out. HEE. Few little fiddly things I want to fix before I actually start putting entries on it:

o The date, which should be in the form 'Monday 12 October 2015' with a break after the day of the week. Not sure exactly where to change that.
o On that note, date seems to have a random tab or many spaces or something at the end of the line? It's not padding--Chrome's handy inspect element thing proves that--so idk what that's doing there.
o Figure out if there's a way of stopping Wordpress from automatically putting a <p> around every new paragraph in an entry, because it's putting one around my in-post images. Doesn't matter so much on the wider views, but on the mobile view I'd like the image to stretch all the way across the screen, which I can't do if my paragraphs also have the 40px of padding, cos of course that then gives the picture 40px of padding, too. So that's annoying.
o Link to the rest of the portfolio. At this stage it's just the index, but I'll be expanding it a bit more shortly.
o Take a better photo of that moss (it was late and failing light so it's a bit blurry) and probably redraw the (th)inky thoughts. The g is bugging me, and the swash on the y isn't smooth enough.
o Rename the folder from /wp_testing to just be /blog, aka LAUNCH THE THING YAY!

I'm sure there are other pages I could code up to be pretty, but if I keep fiddling then it'll never actually function, so just those bits for now. That'll all be tomorrow's task, except the moss photo, which I'll do over the weekend when it's sunny.

Tonight I'm going to celebrate this achievement by writing :D
