python

Drupal 6.6, now. Had security updates and such. I really ought to automate the process of updating but I'm way too nervous about it to just not do it by hand. :P

Eventually I'll have to update everything to D7, anyway, I don't think the python route will be happening for a while longer since I'm lazytastic at figuring it out. Heh.

The other big thing was updating various modules like Views, Content Construction Kit, Date, etc... fortunately the people working on those seem to be working together to ensure their modules work right together, so that's nice.

Well, that's probably the most productive thing I've done in weeks, if you don't count my RPoL games...

(some ramble about them below)

Sorry, I just got into this binge of messing with things on my webserver, and I'm just too focused on it to really be around or do anything else. Gets me too cranky, too, so I just... need to be left alone to do this stuff. D:

I got sidetracked from the bbpress dice roller plugin I'm writing, though. :( I spent all yesterday messing with Python (2.5, if only because 2.6 just came out this *week* and I'd rather wait). Been trying to configure Django which is starting to interest me as the next gen darksiren.net, but I'm still poking at figuring how to make it display with apache / mod_python.

Also, I'm worrying about space left on my webserver, as I'm at 60% of 15GB and that makes me a bit paranoid. Trying to mess with log rotation, right now. But I may also consider upgrading the VPS. $20 more bucks a month guys :( so who wants to donate?!

Oh, and I had to fix webnote, because changing Python messed it up royally. I reinstalled it but need to fix the layout still. Some things to remember:

...well, to be honest it's something I've wanted to actually redo for a while. The Caduceus site, I mean.

Here's the main page that I've already shown before, and the actual journal part. The purpose of the journal will be for Jon and I to write in-character things about Ryshy and Alexsei, to help us flesh out how we'll separate them from Exalted's Creation and into Eskarne (my original setting for the Anthegenia Cycle, and yes, also the name I gave the Great Bird in Reborn Again. It means "Mercy".)

For the user profiles, I ended up using a nifty Nucleus plugin for customizable profiles. Even if there'll only ever be two users for the Caduceus, I just had to get it done *right*. ^^;

I went through a few different and interesting blog software and CMSs before settling back with Nucleus, one of my staple favorites:
