New Website Software

| April 13, 2009

Well, this is the second incarnation of our website. The old software package, ACS Blog, wasn’t being updated, and when our web host, GoDaddy.com, offered WordPress as an application option, I jumped on it. For the more technically inclined, that meant that I had to have our website transferred to an IIS 7 server because WordPress requires PHP 5 or greater, and PHP is only offered by GoDaddy on its Windows IIS 7 server accounts (I did’t want to switch to a Linux server because I still have a lot of ASP pages that I want to run).

So the website will be a work-in-progress as I figure out how to manipulate the layout, add different widgets, and, more importantly, how to create photo galleries so I can upload pictures to their proper places.
