And we’re back! Most of you may not have noticed the slight downtime we had for about an hour or so, but I’ve now upgraded our blog to the latest version. It was seriously outdated by a few years, so I went ahead while I had some time off.
Visually, you won’t notice anything different, but in terms of security (with all those juicy juicy plugins I can now use), it’s a very big deal in a behind-the-scenes sort of way. Everything should be working fine now, but if you experience any problems, then reply below or contact me through the forum or my email.
UPDATE: Okay, I couldn’t resist. I’ve added in a new feature for all the iPhone/iPod Touch users like myself. If you’re viewing this through your iPhone right now, then you’ve already seen the changes happen. It’s an automatic redirect that takes you to a much simpler and easier interface to navigate through. The rest of the web will still see this blog the way it is, so don’t worry.
Also, for the iPhone users, if you decide that you don’t like this new view, then you can always scroll all the way to the bottom of the blog and change the setting there (However, you’ll be directed to the blog without the header, so make sure you have http://www.hiracdelest.com/status.htm added to your favourites!)
Lastly, I’ve also added in the same lightbox javascript plugin that I’ve used on several parts of the site already (Missions, Merchandise, etc). What’s lightbox? Well, simply click that little iPhone picture that you see with this post (on the right). Spiffy, no? It’s not new by any means, but it’s nice that the blog can do this now too.
That’s all for now. More updates coming soon! 🙂
