Finally managed to update my sites (with the exception of one which is being finalised) to the latest version of Textpattern – 4.2.0.
One of the best features of 4.2.0 is the multi-site support. What this basically means is that you can run many sites off only one installation of TXP, so in the future you only have to upgrade the one install.
To make this site run on multi-sites, I had to change the TXP Minima and TXP Minima Photoblog locations. Previously the templates were run by separate TXP installs, but this was unwieldy and a pain to update. In addition the multi-sites feature does not support the nested sub-domains.
So now the templates are stored in sections of this site which actually makes things much easier. I am motivated to update the templates for 4.2.0, and will do so soon. I’ll also get around to producing a new template or two.
Just now returned from Paseig de Gracia where the riders passed through at the beginning of the Tour de France Stage 7.
Here is a video I took as they passed through – Lance Armstrong appears at the 15 second mark!
After Oliver’s first baseball tournament this weekend (for FC Barcelona U-12 baseball team) we went to a new favourite place on Calle Provenca in BCN – La Bodegueta Provenca.
Its a new bar/restaurant and a more upmarket version of the original La Bodegueta which is close by.
You can see my dirty feet after a long day playing ball with Oliver in between baseball matches ;-)
Amongst all the horrible videos coming out of Iran right now, this one is poignant and moving – that’s not to say the other images are not, but this one is a little different.
Just came across Wall Street Journal opinion article on Atlas Shrugged – Ayn Rand’s classic novel which happens to be my favourite book.
The piece relates to the economic stimulus plan in the US, but is a timely reminder of the prescient value of the novel.
