Create the Custom Tabs

Today I finished up the design of my new blog. I created the custom tags that I used to add my photo, bio, favorite links, etc. Rather than put them in this blog entry I have put them in a separate page. You can click here to see what went into my tags. On that page I show the name of the tags I created, what their contents are, and where in the templates I put them.

Adding those tags to the templates took a while since I had to repeat the additions in all five templates. But once it is done I don't ever have to do that again. One thing I did do was to backup the templates with the changes in them to a different directory than the directory the database is in. I did that because if I ever have another brain cramp and change the theme of the new blog, it will trash all of my work. Better safe than sorry.

I have now posted the new blog, called "Nothing Happens At Ten" so you can see the results. That blog is also accessible via my Favorite Links section on this page.
