Diacritiques

I didn’t have a changelog at the old site. The still valid and active site, I ought to say, because this one will take some work. It will go life when and only when

1. Everything — plugins, permalinks, layout — works satisfactorily and
2. I know how to safely redirect everyone who might have or find an obsolete link to the free.fr/serendipity site.

What is done:

• installed WP 1.3-nightly-0509
• corrected incorrect path information in the imported database, in particular the variable HOME and some picture upload directories
• activated the Markdown 1.0 plugin that came with the installation
• copied and renamed the “Raspberry Milkshake” style sheet for the admin panel

This is the to-do list, not necessarily in any logical order:

• decide on a permalink structure and activate it
• move over my custom quicktags
• install the language picker plugin and make it compatible with the permalink structure (note: WP1.3 is incompatible with Stevarino’s faked folders; I hope the WP Rulers & Masters get static posts to work soon)
• redesign the site: better positioning, background, new menu/navigation bar, non-jumpy header, cross-browser compatibility; rethink search and archive pages
• implement elements of Stephanie’s multilingual posting functionality — maybe hack the language picker plugin a little

To be continued and completed.
