No, it is mostly my fault. I tend to tinker with things (I like knowing how things work, this include web applications) and I have, so far, managed to break WP on 4 separate occasions, the frustration is getting to me. According to my IT friend I'm insanely good at breaking things that should not be breakable. In order to cause less problems to the life site I'm in the process of setting up a localhost by installing Apache, MySQL and PHP.

I broke WP on 4 separate occasions. As in I somehow managed to completely destroy the administration side of it on two of those occasions in completely different ways. Apparently what I did shouldn't have been possible, at least that's what the IT friend tells, and considering he has been doing this for over a decade I tend to believe him.

To avoid more problems to the actual site I'm in the process of setting up a localhost by installing Apache, MySQL and PHP.

I'm pretty sure it will become easier once I stop making fatal mistakes. Hoping the localhost will let learn without screwing up the real site. This week just has been a long week of WP errors.

So, here's hoping!

It is mostly my own fault. I have a tendency to tinker with everything, and since last September has managed to completely kill my WP on 4 separate occasion in ways that my IT friend swear should be impossible. To avoid more problems to the actual site I'm in the process of setting up a localhost by installing Apache, MySQL and PHP.

A lots of the problem arise from the issue that I'm using WP as an engine for a website rather than a blog. If trouble continues I'm just going to install Joomla.

In short I need much practice, and depending on what other functionality I need I may have to install a more CMS oriented software. Let's just say the past week has been a long trial of WB issues.

Yeah, the loss of data is pretty much why I'm installing a localhost on my own computer, and I'm in the process of figuring out how to set up version control so that I will always have a back of my website at any time.

I think it is Version Control. It is the application that keep track of all your changes and you can return to any of the changes at any point. I'm getting help to set it up.

Actually it is a bit of column A and a bit of column B. I'm trying to make the shift into the marketing department, specialising in e-marketing. There is only so much books you can read before you have to figure out what works and what doesn't in practice. So, I thought I'd combine the two by making my own site and seeing what e-marketing strategies works. This involves messing around with WP blogs, making a site, applying tactics in relation SEOs and advertising, and attempting to sell a product. I don't see it becoming operational until mid-June, but I'm hoping it will be fully operational before Christmas.

And to make sure I keep up the motivation and interest I'm trying to focus on things I love. That would include anime/manga, TV, and Korean boy bands. :D

I'm going via the route of online store. Software cost way too much start-up capital. I'm in the planning phase, and while it is really exciting, work kind of take priority.
