Yes, I am a conservative, but...

I happened to look at PP with IE, and for some reason the whole blog has shifted to the right. (It looks fine in Mozilla, of course!) Anybody know what I accidently did to cause this?

Switching my blog around

Does anyone know an easy way to move my menu bar to the right. As of now I have my menu bar on the left, and my content on the right. I want to try it opposite, but without changing any other stuff.

What would be the easy way to do it?

Funky Site

Pixy or anyone else...

Just tried to log on - my blog is my home page - and got a weird message:

blah blah blah file may be harmful to your computer...
madfishwillies.mu[1] (instead of madfishwillies.mu.nu)...

then the options: open | save | cancel | more info

Does anyone else get this message or is the problem on my end? Thanks for any assistance any of you can give me.

UPDATE: Everything is showing up fine now. Don't know what the problem was, but it's not there now.

Testing

Take a look at this and let me know if you think it's a good idea. In particular, have a play around in here. You've each got your own room, so no fighting!

I'm planning on restyling it to look like this and then merging the two and using it to replace this which is hopelessly out of date.

The alternative is to work on Minx until it does everything that Movable Type and PHP-Nuke do, only better, and then use it, but that will probably be six months or more. (Minx just for blogging should come sooner than that.)

Let me know what you think.

Wha?

My friend just tried to go to my site, and she used the abrieviated form of http://mr.mu.nu instead of mookieriffic.mu.nu and what used to lead to my site now leads to snooze button dreams. Why?

Feed Reading Question

Quick question - does any one have an OPML newsfeed directory for all the Munuviana blogs? I want to put them all in my FeedDemon reader as it would save a ton of time, but I'm too lazy to go and do it all manually.

Referrals

I know we talked about this before, but how do you get a list of referrers on your page. I like to know where my visitors are coming from.

Now what

You know when you go buy something from IKEA and you get home and say I can do this because it looks easy and the instructions are so simple but it turns out they're not so simple because the screw that goes into that other bit doesn't fit and you need to drill the wall but you don't have the right bits either and now it's all out of the packaging and spread out over the floor and you don't know what goes where and you've wasted your entire afternoon?

Cpanel is a little like that.

There's a question coming: I've set up a subdomain in Cpanel. For example let's say I've called it aboutme.simonworld.mu.nu. So how do I now put content onto it??? Format it? Do anything to it?

I actually managed to fit the IKEA mirror on the wall in the end.

TECH HELP

My mom is extremely concerned that she can't view my blog properly. The sidebar is pushed all the way down to the bottom. She has a small monitor, but since I set up my blog in terms of % of the screen instead of pixels, that shouldn't have an effect, right? Does anyone know why this might be or how we could fix it? She keeps calling and writing telling me that it's all messed up

Wups, There It Goes

The Symphony was taking its time posting, probably because of all the links. Due to the hideous way trackback autodiscovery works (it first has to read all the pages you've linked to, to see if they're pingable) it didn't seem to be actually doing anything.

Anyway, 15 pings away... Let's see how many work.

Damn, I screwed up the images!

Still pinging.

I can update this post again and it will still be pinging.

Update: Movable Type steers like a cow.

Pizza Dough Recipe

I love to bake. I make bread and pizza dough all the time. I wanted to share with you all my recipe for pizza dough.

First, you need a stand mixer. I have a 5 quart Kitchen-Aid, but any stand mixer with a dough hook will do.

Also, you should use Unbleached Bread Flour. Bread flour works best because of the high protein content leads to good gluten to give the dough it's trademark chewey texture like good pizza has.

1 1/8 cup hot water
1 T sugar
1 T Honey
1 1/2 T dry yeast
1 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 C Flour
1 t salt

Combine water, sugar, honey, and yeast in bowl, and mix with fork for 10 seconds. Let stand 10 minutes till it starts to foam (yeast starting to work).

Add 1 cup of flour and beat with the flat mixer for 1 minute. Add the rest of the flour 1/2 cup at a time, beating for 30 seconds before adding more flour. Add Olive Oil and salt when you add the last of the flour.

Beat with the dough hook for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes pick a piece of the flour off and stretch to see if it stretches thin enough to see through. This is called a baker's pane, and is a good indication you have worked the gluten enough.

Let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled. Punch down, and let rise another 30 minutes.

Use the dough for pizza, flatbread, stomboli, calzones, or whatever need you see fit. You can freeze the extra dough, but be sure to bring to room temperature before you use again.

Enjoy!!

I could use some help...

Dear Munivianans,

I've been working on setting up my new mu.nu site for six hours now, and I've hit a gumption trap. I could really use some tech help at this point. Check out my blog at tryingtogrok.mu.nu to visualize my problem.

I'd like to get the sidebar to be a little thinner, but I certainly can't figure out how to do that. I'd like it if the dotted line were right up next to the photo of me so that there isn't so much wasted white space. Does anyone know how to do that?

I'd also like to archive by topic, which I see some have done. I'm sure it's something really easy, but I'm too burned out at this point to figure it out myself.

I'm almost there...
Sarah

UPDATE:

Thanks for the tips, everyone. I think I've got it figured out. Come Monday I'll officially be moving over...

Ancient Munuviana

I've unearthed evidence of Ancient Munuviana. This could be the breakthrough our top-notch archaeologists have been waiting for.

CPanel

By request, as I set people up in CPanel I will make a note here. That way, if you don't get the email, you will know you didn't get the email.

So far:

Simon
Jennifer
Susie
Tom
Daniel
Jim
Stephen
LeeAnn
Ted
Mookie
Victor
Cherry

(No, I'm not doing it in any particular order...)

Update: Oh yes: Down at the bottom left, where it says Documentation Click to View?

Click to view.

Took me a while to find it myself.

PHP List

Anybody know how the heck to get PHP List out of "Test" mode so I can actually test it? It won't send email whilst in test mode and I've no idea how to get to the config file and there's no option in the GUI menu to take it out of cannibalized mode.
