Wrote another 500 words on Lowborn, almost closing out the first scene.\u00a0 Once I get that done and a couple more, I’ll know whether this is going to be a long chapter + another before the end, or just a long chapter.\u00a0 I’m really thinking that I’ll be going for eight, in order to not have the last two chapters be a lot longer than the previous five.<\/p>\n
Got a little bit more done on SOTM 18 as well.<\/p>\n
Would have been more, but I got a\u00a0bit distracted with research.\u00a0 I may have mentioned that I worked with the invision forum software in the past, so I’m at least familiar with the previous version of it, and the general coding style of the developers.\u00a0 With almost all of my tax check still sitting in the bank and an extra hundred bucks from placing in the Earth Day contest, I’m seriously considering licensing an IP board.<\/p>\n
Looking at the latest version, it seems that there are some site integration features that can be purchased as an add-on called ip.content.\u00a0 I’m still digging around, but it looks like this may be ideal for me to build the interactive and informative\u00a0parts of the website, getting more than this blog back online at long last.<\/p>\n
I’ve coded not only extensive forum add-ons, but back-end administrative functions and even some website interaction in this forum software before, so there probably won’t be as much of a learning curve as with the other free software I was experimenting with.<\/p>\n
I’m going to continue to research, but if anyone has working knowledge of coding for the 3.x versions of IPBoard as opposed to the 2.x version, give me a yell in a comment, email, or something.\u00a0 Likewise if anyone has experience with the ip.content add-on.<\/p>\n
If I go with this, and the differences in the way you modify the software isn’t too far off from what I remember, I could get pieces of the website up and running in pretty short order, most likely.\u00a0 The first thing I would probably tackle would be a “latest release” to replace the section on the front page where I currently link to my old site change previews.<\/p>\n
Anyway, gimme a yell if you have any knowledge on the software.\u00a0 I’m going to chill for a few and see if I can’t get back to writing.\u00a0 I have Lowborn, SOTM, and a story in my third name all open.\u00a0 Have to see what’s singing to me before I call it a night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
