Just a quick update to let you know that I’ve been making some fairly good progress on getting the WriteLog User Site back up and working in the new format.
There is a new template that I’m using that seems to work pretty well, a “floating” width template that will go as wide as your screen and maintain the writing.
I’m setting up the site with four (right now) main sections associated with WriteLog:
First Time Setup. This is the one-time setup that needs to be done to get WriteLog up and working.
Specialized Setup. This is mainly all about the setup needed for different modes, classes, and contests based upon the rules.
Other WriteLog Topics. I need a better title, but essentially reference material not found any other place.
Operating WriteLog. This is how WriteLog is used in a contest in the heat of battle.
There will be some tweaks, of course, but I’m happy with how the content is turning out — only one place to find information on a given topic making things easier to find — and how the content is structured.
Right now, most of First Time Setup is complete. Click on that on the main menu and you will see another row of topics show beneath it for your subjects.
By the way, you can bookmark the site directly and bypass this blog by inputting this address and then saving it to your favorites:
As noted, I’m going to be done with the site by the end of August as I want to be ready with it for the fall contesting season.
