Ok, well... Disillusioned and Otherside are back up and running. I have several entries missing on Disillusioned but Otherside is completely intact. Please do remember that Otherside has Mature Content and shouldn't be viewed with the kiddies around.
Anyway. If I find an exported file with the rest of the entries I'll be shocked. I know I have backups of the entire site prior to being suspended by my previous host due to phishing they wouldn't help me prevent but I didn't export the entries often enough. I will definitely be doing that once a month now.
Yes, I am with a new host and I've upgraded my MT to the latest version of 4.23. Why am I sticking with MT you ask? Well because it worked. That's right, it worked the first time around this time. I only had to fix some things in the stylesheets to make the styles show up on the published blog, but other than that, I didn't have to screw around looking through PHP files trying to tell it where to publish like I had to do with B2.
I have given up on B2Evolution altogether. I had thought to switch to them awhile back and it didn't happen because I didn't have MySQL at the time. Now I have everything I need and HostMonster even has Fantastico DeLuxe to install it for me but I couldn't get it to do multiple blogs and everything I read didn't make any sense. So I tried Wordpress but it doesn't have all the features I want, including multiple blogs. Movable Type has everything I could ask for, now I just need to learn how to update the templates to my own designs. For now, the Cityscape of Tokyo will be here. Nightmares and waking up thinking I solved the B2 problem will do that to a girl.
Photos aren't working and being as the entries are so old there aren't really all that many. I'll either have to figure out which photos are in the blog or simply delete those entries and start anew.
I still have to relink the daily reads and so forth, but stay tuned!
