Back in February I said that I was changing the look of my blog and that I wasn’t going to create a bespoke WordPress theme as I didn’t have the time. I changed my mind in March and said that I was going to build this WordPress theme. And so I have, and here it is.

I have spent some time today converting the WordPress theme that I use for this blog, the excellent Grid Focus by Derek Punsulan, into HTML5. As of today, this blog is now HTML5 compliant.
It’s the first time I’ve delved into the world of WordPress theming, and I was pleasantly surprised how simple it is. Next step is to create my own from scratch, but I am looking forward to that.
Unfortunately one of the plugins that I use, SocioFluid generates invalid code, using deprecated elements and attributes. So this part doesn’t validate at all. I must look into an alternative. If you have any in mind, please let me know.
I’ve also converted my Decimal to Roman Numerals script into PHP for use in the copyright date in the footer.
I created a word cloud of my blog entries over at Wordle. It’s interesting to see what words are mentioned most often! A link to the full word cloud is shown below.
I have made a few changes to iandevlin.com, adding a new services section to indicate that I am now also available for hire to do freelance web design and development work.
I do work full-time so my availability might be limited, but it’s best to contact me first to check my workload. But please do get in touch.
