I noticed that my site’s feeds were not being updated in Bloglines and after a little investigation I found a solution. For other WordPress users out there in the blogosphere, this is a known problem with the new 1.5 version. For a temporary fix, change line 17 in your wp-blog-header.php file to:

(false === strpos($_SERVER['PATH_INFO'], ‘.php’))

which means just delete the ‘index’ portion of ‘index.php’. After doing so, the feeds should work again.

This site is now running WordPress version 1.5 and everything seems to be in working order. Please email me if you find any problems.

I have also removed automatic comment moderation because this new version of WordPress is suppose to be able to handle comment spam. This means that any comments you write should be posted immediately, unless your comment looks like spam, in which case it will be placed in a moderation queue for me to ok or delete.

The wonderful software I use to run this web site, called WordPress, just released a shiny new version. I want to play with this new version so I will be upgrading my site later on today. This is a major release, so expect some issues with the site until I get everything running smoothly again. The upgrade instructions look simple, but these things have a way of becoming more complicated than they look.

When I first moved to town I tried to do a quick google to find out what time Sunday church service was. To my surprise, First Christian Church, the church I go to here in Bakersfield, didn’t have a website! So, these many months later, I finally took matters into my own hands and created one for the church.

The new website for First Christian Church – Bakersfield, California is at http://www.fccbakersfield.org and I just finished posting the first version of the site. It is very simple because I did not know what to put on the web site. So, currently it just has the church’s contact information and the time of the worship service every Sunday.

So, please take a look at http://www.fccbakersfield.org and give me some suggestions on what information the site should contain.

I have finally managed to get all my domains switched over to my new web host. A big thank you to my brother who let me mooch off of his host for quite a while. I switched over to this new host because my business, Aona Systems, is now generating enough traffic that I should have my own. I went with 1&1 as my host because they are well liked by the Linux community and so far I have been very pleased with their service. Hopefully they will continue to deliver a good hosting experience.

Please let me know of any problems you see with this site or with www.aonasystems.com. I think I have managed to remember to put everything back together correctly, but sometimes stuff falls through the cracks.

I uploaded all my photos to my server yesterday and made blog entries for them all. You can now access my photo album by clicking the “Photos” section on the left of the page. I am pretty happy with how the photos have been integrated into the blog. In the future, I will write a blurb on what the photos are showing along with posting the photo thumbnails. Please let me know if you have any problems viewing the photo thumbnails or the full versions.
