I Killed My Blog

July 17, 2013 by MrsC | Patricia Cuyugan 16 Comments

No, actually, I killed my child theme. This is what I get for trying to edit my child theme on my own, DIY style, trial by fire. Yes, I was smart enough to back up my original stylesheet, but that was a while back and I cannot find the file on my already too full computer. Grrrrr!

This must be a sign that it’s time to have my blog design done already. And in the meantime while my blog is plain and boring and not very pink, I will actually be able to assess things and figure out what I want to put in it. Makes sense, yes?

So kids, before you mess with your HTML/CSS/back-end stuff, make sure you super super know what you’re doing. I super know what I’m doing, but not super, SUPER, and so there you go. That’s my kwento (story) for today.

    I used to be so good at HTML, back in the days when time can be spent leisurely! Now I have no patience to relearn them so I just went and paid someone to do my blog design. I’m thinking of moving to WP soon but I’m afraid for my stats to go back to zero!

      That’s why I moved na while my blog was still new. ๐Ÿ™‚ That was the advice that other mommy bloggers gave me, and I’m glad that I went for it already back then. Good luck to you on your migration!

    Are you using blogger platform before? The new one isn’t that bad. It looks clean. I am having second thoughts also in migrating to wordpress. I should learn the loops first before making a drastic change or else I might end up crazy at the end of the day for punching wrong buttons.

      I started out on Blogger before then migrated to WordPress last year. I’m actually happy na now with this new one coz I figured out how to make it pink. Haha. But still having the design re-done. I’m more familiar really with customizing Blogger. I find it easier coz I used to design my own blog back in college. Now with WP it’s a bit of an adjustment.

      Aww thank you! This “cleaner” look is very different from the design that I accidentally murdered, but it’s really starting to grow on me. ๐Ÿ™‚ I like your design. So pink!

      My old layout looked kind of like candy actually… Pink, orange and yellow with polka dots. I miss it huhuhu. But honestly, I’m starting to get over it. Getting excited for the face lift! And I like my temp look now because this morning I figured out how to make it pink! Yay! Yesterday it was teal and depressing. Lol. Thanks for stopping by, classmate! ๐Ÿ˜€

    Lol. I’ve been editing my blog on my own ever since I transferred to WordPress. Gosh, it looks aweful. ๐Ÿ˜€ I’m thinking of having my design done as well — but that will need to wait until I have the budget for it.

      Your blog doesn’t look awful! I actually feel bad coz mine was kinda cute, and I was liking it already. Then I went overboard. Haha!
