Hurrah the move to self hosted is done! There was a bit of mischief getting to this day. I thought I went self hosted a week or so again as I upgraded my WP site, then had my domain name pointed to my WP site and I thought that was all that needed to be done, boy was I wrong. I was trying to pick a new theme and having problems with it. I then was talking with 2browndawgs about it and she was trying to guide me when we realized I really wasn’t self hosted. I just upgraded my WP account basically all that did was give me unlimited picture storage. So then Linda talked me through what steps I needed to take to really become self hosted and wala here I am. So a big thank you goes out to Linda for all the help she has given me and I’m sure will give me in the days ahead as I start this new transition. So bare with me as I find a new theme and redesign to incorporate my website into my WP site.
On bigger news Gambler had another hunt test this weekend. John and Gambler were off to a UKC HRC hunt test. He was entered into 2 hunt tests once each day of the weekend. Saturday he smacked the test and came home with a ribbon.
Sunday was whole other story. He retrieved his marks without a problem then on his blind the bottom fell out and he failed his test. He needed this one last pass in order for him to get his finished title this summer. Sadly he didn’t get his title but we will try it again next summer. Training for hunt tests is done for the season and it’s on to hunting season. We had a great summer with some great accomplishments made.
There might be more mischief in this post, I’m thinking you might not be able to see my pictures when I post this as when I preview I can’t see them. I’ve tried and tired to fix it and I have no idea why my pictures won’t show up so any hints let me know. If the pictures are there then disregard this message.
This is a Blog Hop. Thanks to Alfie’s Blog, Snoopy’s Dog Blog , Luna, a Dog’s Life , and My Brown Newfies for setting up this hop. Please go to any of the sponsoring blogs to find out who else has been mischievous.
Congrats on going self-hosted! You’ll have a lot more freedom but there’s also a lot of little nagging things that occasionally cause some mischief. No worries though, it will all come together it’s nice to have more control of the blog. Looking forward to seeing the new theme soon!
Oh, moving is always stressful! Whether it’s a house or a blog! (I coudln’t see the pics.)
Mum and I couldn’t see the pic’s either!!!
ttfn and toodle pip
Technology can be tricky. I’m glad you got it all figured out though. Can’t wait to see the new theme. Feel mischievous now!
Your comment box is different than the one I use. I can see the pictures. Glad I could help, wish I knew more. Congrats to Gman on his Finished pass. I guess he will “finish” next year…lol.
Glad you’re sorted! And well done Gambler and John!
I thought you had issues and were MIA the last couple days! I guess I just didn’t get email notification for this post, but I got today’s (Weds) so all is good!
Glad you had Linda to help you through it!
I wondered why it wouldn’t let me see them for a few days, I see Gman with one ribbon. Congrats on passing the Saturday test, sorry Sunday didn’t work out. He’ll be ready next season:)
Hi Y’all!
Moving never happens without mischief! And it looks like that final finish is going to be a “pain” for Gambler. Paws crossed here for next year. Maybe GMan just wanted to get on to the real work of the season…hunting real game!
Y’all come on by,
Hawk aka BrownDog
