Ok, since I'm trying to get MadHatter's blog going, and figured we'd set him up with wordpress, I decided it was time I converted my pm machine sorta blog to a REAL blog. So here it is:

http://gotpornforwomen.com/blog/

Still have to load more old posts in it. It is a combo of spam to my avs sites, stuff that happens in my life, and weird news I find. Everything is hand written so far, but it does have a lot to do with my sites. ;)

I used a theme called green bug and changed all the images to match the rest of my site, and hacked the css so I could get the graphic top on top.

Now I need to change over our old one on redcherry, and turn that into a splog. I want to feed the hell out of that one with sponsor feeds, but this baby since I'm my own sponsor, I have to write the posts myself.

Geeze, hope that makes sense, I'm tired, lol.

Whatcha think for first try? Any suggestions?

Pretty damn nice! Only suggestion is that I would either display the tags at the bottom of the post, for that post, or I would link the tagged words in the post

Thanks for the suggestion and nice comments. I was wondering why the tagged words were not showing up as links like I saw in yours. |huh

edit: I found the snippet, and now the tags show up under each post. Still haven't figured out how to have the words underlined, but its a start. |thumb

It's one of the options under simple tag settings.

Maybe I'm not seeing it, is it something to do with the Extended format advanced usage? Everything else seems to do with displaying the cloud. Or do I edit in something other than under the list in widgets?

I found the mother load of options, lol. I got it working now. |thumb

Looks nice :)
Walrus... can you explain again how to get the tags under the post? I'm using 2.5.1 but I don't see anything about that under Manage -> tags

That's set up in your theme, not that admin. The theme calls the tags.

ronnie is right it needs to be a part of the theme. Edit "the loop" in your main index and add<?php the_tags(); ?> if your using WP's tagging system or <?php st_the_tags(); ?> if your using simple tags.

The options were in settings -> simple tags -> administration
not in the widget section. There you can activate the click tags feature. I tried everything I could think of in the widgets and couldn't get the underlines. Hope that helps.

Thanks for your feeds too on FTG. |thumb I have those sprinkling in every few days.

NP :) Although it gets tricky sometimes trying to thing of something witty to say about the photos.

And thanks Walrus for the info about the tags. I'll have to decide where I want to go with that. There's so many issues with 2.5.1 I haven't even got up to it yet.

RedCherry - the blog looks FINE!

That was a huge help for me too Walrus - thanks
