The Big Switch

Housekeeping is happening and this site moving and changing. After almost 15 years of pro bono hosting at TDC, this site is now moved to it’s own home funded by myself. The move isn’t quite done yet, but as most is in place, the DNS has been updated and you’re watching the new netfactory.dk site. [...]

Welcome to the "new" old site

Let’s call it lift off… This site has been online in some form or another for 10+ years. During that time I’ve been runing a static HTML site (eventually with a few CGI’s), later on Movable Type a few years and most recently an odd mixture of WordPress, Gallery2 and custom code. During the past [...]

A Premium look

Welcome to a fresh look on netfactory.dk. I’ve never been quite satisfied with the old look, and stumbled across the WP_Premium theme which looked quite nice. It’s now live in a lightly hacked version. Therre are quite a few things I’d like to hack further but in the spirit of the Internet Way of doing [...]

WordPress 2.6

A new wordpress has been released (2.6). I’ve upgraded – took 60 seconds and caused no issues what so ever (- so far anyway). There isn’t one big new thing, but a fair number of improvements in many different areas. Get the latest version from the WordPress site.

Outsourcing blog parts

It seems to be very modern to outsource thse days, and I’m trying to keep up. A while back I switched my RSS feeds from WordPress Build-in services to FeedBurner. It was a win-win. Has a lot less load and feedburner does a lot of work to make sure the Feeds are in top-notch shape. [...]

Twittering

It seems I don’t find time to do too many stories to the site currently. I do however twitter occasionally. As a convenience I’ve added the latests twitters on the site too…

Backups, WordPress & GMail

Backups seem to be a constant pain for just about everyone. It’s something we know we should do, but somehow never get around to actually doing. Since switching to WordPress on this site, things have been different though. One of my many installed wordpress Plugins is the WordPress Backup plugin. It runs once a day [...]

Gallery & WPG upgradeded

It seems it upgrade time. Today it was the Gallery and the WordPressGallery plugin that was upgraded. While I usually get it to work (somehow), it’s always slightly scary. URL’s in the Gallery is a mess (and changed since the old version of the WPG plugin), but the Gallery seem to be running and the [...]

Wanted (source)code plugin for WordPress

The past days I’ve been posting stories with a few code samples – Perl, PHP, Javasscript and/or HTML. While WordPress is fantastic to a number of things, handling sourcecode examples in the posts, reallly isn’t one of them. I’ve been playing with a number of plugins, but none of them really works for me. What [...]

WordPress 404 Notifier broken?

While trying to respect the notion that URLs dont change, moving to a completely different engine for a website is bound to cause many URL changes. I’ve been trying to redirect old broken URLs to their new destination, and one of the tools was the 404 Notifier plugin for WordPress. The idea is that you [...]
