Squackle.com! The Funniest Site on the Net

I updated to WordPress 3.0 recently and discovered there is a “multi-site” option.  Whoopydoo.

But to get that to work I had to move the installation to the root file.

So that fucked up like half the things on the site for a little while, and now I have to go through every page that has images or whatever and re-insert them to make them all work.  At least I’ll never have to do anything like that again (I hope).

Also, if you’re looking for a page that used to be in the “index” folder (for example, the old site), I may or may not redirect them to where I moved them.  I dont think anyone really cares about them though.  As long as you’re here, that’s all I care about!

I’ve been doing quite a bit of work on the web site recently.  I’ve gotten rid of that nasty “/wordpress/” uglying up the URL bar, so now you can get to the site by going to Squackle.com — that’s spiffy ain’t it?  And I made it so that any old links still work.  Hopefully I’ll be able to change it so they redirect to the URL without the “/wordpress/” though.

What else is planned to be done:

Permalinks that are SEO-friendly.

Figuring out if there are any other plugins that would make the web site cool.

Maybe a new theme.

Maybe re-numbering all the articles that have #s.  Not very likely, though.

Pretty much a year after I launched this version of my site, I’ve gotten 50,000 hits according to the stats program I’ve got running.

That’s an average of about 4,200 hits a month.  Not bad, but I hope to get that increased.

It’d be swell if you passed around a link to this site to your friends.  Also, thanks to anyone sticking around and visiting every now and then.

So, I was sitting at my computer one day (today) and thought, hey why don’t I add that nifty YouTube video thing Google has to fill up some of that white space you may see under each individual post?

And I said, yes, that will work.  And so it did.  Please enjoy what I deem as SquackleTube.

Sorry everyone, I recently realized that downloads on the site were not working at all.

They should be working now.  So download away.

Hello,

I changed up the rating system to be an up/down system, based on points rather than average.

So if you like a post, give it a +1 (perhaps you like this one?)

If you don’t like it, give it a -1.  That way you can make sure that your voice is heard as to whether or not certain content is shitty, or good!  Makes sense, right?

Right.

Yesterday, I reached 10,000 posts on this blog. Lots of jokes were added from my sources.

I’ve got a ton of content to still put up. Probably wouldn’t have been possible to do it all without switching to a blog. Oh well. I’m just talking to myself at this point.

I updated to WordPress 2.5 today. Looks to be working just fine, except for the tagging plugin that I use. I’ll have to wait until the plugin author releases a version that works well with 2.5 before being satisfied with updating.

Annoying things to me about the admin interface:

Can’t move boxes around in the write page anymore.

Still can’t extend the categories box to view all categories, but a “most used” makes it better.

Another plugins usage box is just thrown under all of it. I’d much rather have some of the stuff on the side.

Slow default tag autocomplete.

Horizontal Rules are still messed up.

More to come?

As of this week, this Squackle-blog has passed 21,000 hits.

As of today, there are around 9700 posts of Squackle-y goodness for the Internet to enjoy.

Thank you to the search engines for bloating my hits, and hello to the few real people that may stumble across the bloodninja IMs I posted.

A few more comments from actual people have been left, too, so I’m actually excited about the possibility of people actually interacting with my web site.  Why won’t more people leave comments?  :B

I opened up comments so that anyone can post. I’ll approve it as long as its not a spam comment, obviously.

So far I’ve had two great comments that make absolutely no sense, whatsoever. I shoulda opened them sooner!

Hello, everyone. This is a seldom “Site Update” but I figure I might as well make a note of it.

According to the blog stats, the blog has hit 10,000 page views. Recently, there has been at least 200 page views a day, 500 yesterday.

I started the blog on August 17, 2007.   So far it seems like the blog has already overtaken the amount of traffic I get on the site before I opened up the blog.

Thanks to everyone that’s been visiting!

Does anyone even use the feeds?

davepoobond: HI EVERYBODY!  I’ve been hard at work on the new interpretation of Squackle that will hopefully make the experience a lot better to wade through the massive amount of content I’ve got on this site.  You can see my progress at http://squackle.com/wordpress/ .  The new blog-style format will be a lot easier for me to manage, which means more content will be posted — maybe even on a daily basis!  I’ve already added all the dictionary words I intend to add from the existing dictionary.  The blog site will eventually become the main Squackle.com, but fear not, the original site will be kept up for all eternity.  So if you like the current format, it’ll stay like this forever, just not updated anymore.

Go now!  http://squackle.com/wordpress/ http://squackle.com/wordpress/ http://squackle.com/wordpress/

davepoobond:  Its been recently unveiled to me that the web site is not, as they say, as popular as some of the bigger/more popular web sites out there.  Interesting hypothesis I said to myself.  Then I asked myself, “ARE there other humor sites out there?”  The simple answer to that, in my expert opinion, is no.  Thus, I have proven the hypothesis false.

davepoobond:  The dictionary has finally hit a landmark.  5000 words!  It is quite amazing, in my professional opinion that so many words have been added manually, with no automatic alphabetizer except for my brain, spending two hours on each 100 words that are added to get all the words I’ve made up over the years or picked up into it.  Anyway…there’s also some other stuff…
