I finally upgraded to version 1.2.1 tonite. If you encounter any problems on your visit, please let me know … leave a comment on this post. So far everything looks like it’s running okay. I only uploaded the changed files (thank goodness I found the list in the WP support forum). I didn’t want to upload all of the files because of the customizing I’ve done. I’ve even customized the admin area a bit tonite. I found an alternate admin stylesheet at whitespace thanks to Kristine. I liked it ‘cuz it was green … and that’s my favorite color. I implemented the stylesheet and moved a few things around on the post screen so it looked ‘pretty’. I’m very happy with how it looks now.

I’m tempted to install and test out version 1.3 from cvs. I’m not sure if I’m gonna though. I’ve got some other website maintenance to do this weekend. Maybe I’ll do it if I have the energy … LOL.

When I started this job, I knew (X)HTML, CSS, php, and mySQL. Because of this job, I’m now learning MSSQL … stored procedures, views, and triggers. I’m not really sure I like it … LOL. I wanna go back to mySQL. I’ve also done some work in asp.

Actually, I guess that MSSQL isn’t all that bad. I just started with triggers today, and I’ve got a pretty good understanding of them. Stored procedures aren’t all that bad either. I need to figure out JOINs though. And I’m a bit scared of doing that kind of stuff ‘cuz I don’t wanna blow up the database. At least it would only be the dev/test database and not the live one.

I just wish I had the extra money so that I could start taking classes like I want to. Kelly did tell me that the company could pay for some classes … if they’re approved. That would be nice, but I want to pay for them myself. Maybe in the spring or next fall.
