The music page (the pulldown menu Media -Music) is now registration and login required access. We’ll see if riff raff gets in because of it and I’ll have to move it back to member group access…… Continue Reading
Category: Site Notes
Notes about/of things regarding site administration and customization, code edits, and other site changes that may be of interest to other beginner to novice (like me!!!) Wordpress admin enthusiasts.
Tied to old BBS days
I’ve been on the ‘net on a hosted site for almost if not, 20 years. First a static HTML hand coding based site of web pages. Then onto more functional and dynamics platforms like Discusware forums, PHPBB forums, PHP-Fusion CMS, a quick tinkering with PHP-Nuke, Coppermine Gallery, WordPress, … Continue Reading

Domain Webmail and Outlook Config info
I keep forgetting what and where these locations are when I need to manually login or adjust something… setting up to use with Outlook is much easier than manually checking webmail… until I need to go into the account and have forgotten the links to them…
