And I’m back!

Thanks Undercover Cupid @ CTMB!Congratulations, clever visitor, for unearthing where this blog, formerly located at http://kiwifairy.awkwardmuffin.com, has moved to!

I’ve left quite a few people comments to let them know, so I’m hoping the word will spread from that and I’ll start getting visitors again!

Obviously it wasn’t my intention to randomly disappear without a trace, but due to an accidental email glitch, I didn’t get any notice of the impending expiration of awkwardmuffin.com…until it had already happened! Thankfully it was just the domain which expired, and not everything else as well! :laughing:

I hope you like my new, somewhat more mature and personal sounding URL. I do. A lot. Otto’s still my host though, which is good, coz he’s extremely helpful! :heart:

I had great fun this afternoon, when everything finally got reinstated, going through all my broken links and changing them so that they work again. I THINK I got everything, but if you spot anything funny looking please let me know.

I’ve taken advantage of my new location and done a complete revamp of my entire blog. thanks to a plugin entitled WP Suicide, all my old posts have gone bye-bye (not before I backed them up on my computer though!) and I have a fresh, but somewhat naked looking, website! YAY! :excited:

So who’s going to be the first comment…!? wink

EDIT: Yeah. I fail life. I just realised that not only does the WP Suicide plugin delete all the POSTS, but the PAGES as well! I tried to restore them from my backup but I couldn’t get it to work! GAH! *is not impressed with self.* I’m going to try and redo as much as I can, but who knows if I’ll be able to get stuff back! Brilliant. ugh

        Oh, cool! I was wondering where your old site went.

        I like the new URL. It’s a lot more personal.

        I’ve thought of using that plugin so many times, but each time couldn’t bare to part with my old crap posts. XD

        Oh, really? It kills the pages too? Well, you know, if your site’s been indexed by Google, you can just recover your content from the Google cache.

          I am definitely glad you’re back! I was beginning to wonder where you were… and what happened to the site. That sucks that your host didn’t even inform you that it was going to expire… definitely inconsiderate…
          Were you able to transfer all your entries?? You should download the backup plugin… back up your stuff…

            Ouch about losing pages. I know how long it takes to put one up.

                  I was wondering where you went! Glad youre back.

                      Congrats on the new address. I definitely like it. It’s a great mature change. Oh, on this comment form, your sidebar is acutally below this text area. It’s weird. Good luck with getting everything fixed and back and running normally! :)
