Oh I Hate Wordpress!!!

I know it’s not a good post title for a Wordpress blog, lol, but truly I’ve been saying that over and over again during the last few days. I can’t believe it’s almost two weeks and I haven’t finished setting up this blog.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not just talking about installing Wordpress. That was simple enough. I followed the famous 5-minute install in the WP 2.7.1 Read Me file and within minutes it was done. Applying a new theme was quite easy too, though took times to find the one I like. But I’m talking about customizing it! I like this theme, but there are certain parts that I want to change.  Plus I don’t want my blog looks exactly like other blogs that use this theme.

It’s so difficult to customize theme using Wordpress themes editor because there’s no preview. I have to save then reload the blog to see the result, it’s really time killing while I really don’t have much time to kill. Also there are so many files need to be edited. Why can’t they just make it like Blogger. Blogger template file is so easy and effective, all CSS and HTML codes are put in one .xml file. And no need to save the changes just to see the result, we can preview it first.

Anyway, I guess I just need to forget about the template for awhile. I’m still not satisfied with this theme yet, but maybe I just do the changes later and start blogging aka postings from now on.

Happy weekend!

Selamat Datang

Whoever are and where ever you came from… WELCOVE!!! No I didn’t mistyped it, I did said “WELCOVE” means “Welcome with Love” Unfortunately, you came too early hehehe… coz I haven’t finished working on the site yet. This is my first time using self-hosted Wordpress, so it takes awhile to make this blog looks like the way I want it. I tried the wordpress-dot-com before but not quite satisfied then changed to Blogger for several months. Now I’m back using WP again this time a self-hosted one.

As you probably see (depends on when you arrive here) I’m still working on the template, plugins, widgets, etc so nothing much to read for now. So in the mean time please bear with me until I’m finished.

Have a great day :)

Update: I don’t know why most of my spam comments came to this post. Is it because it was using its default hello world permalink from Wordpress? I just edited both the permalink and post title to bahasa, let’s see if it’s still attract spam comments! I hate those crazy spams, they’re more than 600 spams now according to askimet.
