Per usual below is a list of some changes I’ve made to the site:

1. I no longer have each section of the site running in a separate WordPress Blog. Thanks to Custom Post Types {LINK REMOVED} I was finally able to merge it all into one database rather than having to re-create each item – post by post – thanks to the igneous plugin called “Post Type Convertr.” During the migration process I managed to clean up a lot of the coding and unneeded pages laying around too.

2. With all the blogs (sections of the site) in one place I had to fix some broken links and create some new official re-directs for the main sections aside from the Blog namely [LINK cat=”56″ ] [LINK cat=”79″ ] [LINK cat=”55″ ] and the Archive {LINK REMOVED}.

For example brasscoestudios.com/pictures was converted to pictures.brasscoestudios.com.

And with that all #118 blog posts were tweaked to have the URL’s reach their intended target or removed if invalid. Deleted areas were the planned Music section along with all the Tape Logs (for now).

3. It took me a while to have both the Facebook LIKE button and the Google+ button correctly display when viewing my site over various browsers and mobile devices. Removing some of the javascipt used for displaying certain fonts was the key. Also those buttons can now be found in all areas of the site rather than just in the blog posts.

4. With the above mentioned JavaScript change I found out that using Google Fonts {LINK REMOVED} worked way better anyways!

5. Even though I already created a Facebook Fan Page for [LINK url=”https://www.facebook.com/brasscoestudios” title=”Brasscoe Studios” ] a while ago I was able to add a LIKE button for the website to the header. In addition I added a tweaked Fan-Box widget to the sidebar which displays image of those who have already Liked it.

6. I added breadcrumb trails to all of the sub areas. It was modified from the Prime Strategy Bread Crumb plugin.

7. Within the [LINK cat=79 ] section I created a new area called [LINK cat=106 ] and moved the (Favorite Digital Images) gallery into it. Also created are the galleries “Black & White” and “The Jumping Project”.

8. Lastly I created a website icon!

SIDE NOTE: I’ve finally begun to work on my video camera and its attachments ([LINK url=”https://www.flickr.com/photos/brasscoestudios/albums/72157629211112795″ title=”2012 misc – video & electronics” ]) in preparation for a short film I’m directing. It will be shot on DVCproHD then mathematically remastered from 2x 1080p to 4K and will be shot in true anamorphic! Below is an image of me trying to focus the lens in Cinemascope.
