I’ve updated my Wordpress permalink structure and I noticed that google was indexing the old structure. Enter the Permalinks Migration Plugin for wordpress. It works great and fixes the permalink problem by using a 301 redirect. Excellent!
I found a wordpress plugin that does exactly what I need. The Code Markup plugin allows me to paste in router configs in my posts without all the spacing etc getting screwed. Awesome!
All the posts have been fixed up except for the BGP allow-as in post. Will have to look at that a bit more, as the spacing is a bit mangled.
The RSS feeds have been fixed! I’m going through all the old posts and making sure that they look correct in the new theme.
Almost done tweaking the theme. It will evolve over time but I like the look of it now. I want to tweak the banner a bit, so i’ll have to photoshop up something. Still have to fix up the subscription options, and feedburner stuff so it doesn’t include these asides in the feed.
What do you think of the new theme? I’m still in the process of configuring and tuning it to suit the feel of the site, so I expect a few hiccups along the way. Stay tuned for new content!
