Archive for the ‘Website Update’ Category

BTW the site looks MUCH better if viewed in FIREFOX.

Ok, I did something REALLY stupid and made the rootspersona part of the website go BOOM and have to be reset so links in some of the recent posts to people, pics etc might not work but anything newer than this should.

uh-oh…I love rootspersona but the latest upgrade whacked out the pictures sizes on here. If you go to peoples pages the first picture seems to be HUGE!! or at least the ones I looked at tonight. still it’s an AWESOME plugin check it out at rootspersona

ok, using a new plug in to display people’s info called rootsPersona. So far it’s cool…check out the tab above for Family and click on Ollie Whitney or John Blagg. Neat huh? I’ll keep the old style Families TNG for the time being but I think I’ll end up switching to this for the display at least.

Yep I broke the theme so there’s a new look and I’ll be tweeking things for a bit.

Sorry to everyone who was waiting so long for user logins. I wasn’t checking the right place and missed several of you. Hopefully everyone got their logins and passwords now. Thanks.

Trying something new. I’ve created a Facebook page for the blog to maybe link up better with people. The link is over to the right at the bottom of the column. Let me know what you think.

I’ve added new categories and tags and gone back and added them to older posts. Hopefully it will make the site easier to search!

anyone have any comments on what this page looks like?

I’m thinking about adding phots where I have them to the top og individual pages and a link to a PDF pedigree chart.

The first one I did is here http://akansasfamily.com/wordpress/?page_id=140

Let me know if you have any thoughts on how it looks

I’m not liking how the Families page is looking.  The arrows won’t line up correctly and it looks cluttered and confusing.   The idea was to have things look like this:

person
      parent 1
            grandparent1a
                Greatgrandparent1a1
                Greatgrandparent1a2
            grandparent1b
                Greatgrandparent1b1
                Greatgrandparent1b2
     Parent 2
             Grandparent2a
                Greatgrandparent2a1
                Greatgrandparent2a2
             Grandparent2b
                Greatgrandparent2b1
                Greatgrandparent2b2
etc….

But it just doesn’t look right…anyone got design ideas?
