John Ó'Ríordáns Blog

I’ve been doing a couple of sites for a Friend of mine who also happens to be my MMA instructor. RebelMMA and KenHealyFitness. They aren’t so much blogs as advertising websites. As a result I wanted to make the static pages jump out, whereas the blogging function should be hidden a little further into the site. I still wanted to use WordPress though as it’s already running on my server. So I had a dig around and found it was actually easy to move the blog away from the front page. Now on those sites when you vist them you get a static front page and you have to navigate to the blog.

Check out the steps on the WordPress site.

I was at MMA training this morning at 12. I’d say it was my first time training on a Saturday since I was 16. Great craic though.

I was reading this great article explaining why people enjoy fighting so much. Maybe that’s why I don’t mind making the effort.

I downloaded the wordpress app for my iPhone today. Now I can easily blog from anywhere. It’s very easy to use and I highly recommend it. Plus now that my blog is linked to buzz and facebook it’s real easy to post everywhere.
