Blog Revisions Done For Now
As the final step on revising the blog for now, I’ve changed the header image. That’s a shot of the keyboard of our upright piano, which Megan had delivered in December. I’ve started playing again after a long layoff, as seems to happen every few years.
What fun to have a real piano again, although the fingers are a bit out of shape. Practice, practice, practice. But when?
Oh, one other thing that I changed is permalinks. Now the URL of each post is a plain-English version of the title and the date posted. Try clicking on the title of this post, and note the address you’ll see in the Address box. Enabling permalinks just required a change to a setting in Wordpress and an .htaccess hack, as described on the Wordpress Codex.
Past posts are still available via their cryptic numeric URLs in addition to the new link style, so this change doesn’t break any existing links to my blog.
