NextGen Slideshow Fixed - 2011-09-17 20:53:34 -
I uninstalled the NextGEN plugin and reinstalled it but my gallery links were demolished. I will re-import them to set up a new link table - when I have time. Thanks again for the heads up.

No I am not giving up on blogging or podcasting!

On the contrary, I have 96 private postings from the last 14 months on various topics which I shared with 43 WordPress trainees. 29 of these WordPress enthusiasts are from the eTwinning community and the remainder are teachers from around Ireland and some PC users who attended last year's Digital Bootcamp organised by the INTo and delivered by Apple last summer in Alexander College, Dublin.

I will tidy them up, especially the posts with links and publish them (publicly) over the next few weeks.

Thanks for the "Back 2 School" emails.

I normally upgrade my WordPress files manually but I have been receiving daily emails from Fantastico informing me that my installation was out of date. I clicked on the automatic update option and it resulted in some odd manifestations. I will rectify the situation on Monday, July 2nd.
