Silly!

 I thought with the title idea of silly souls. But No, I don't want any controversial title. Like all of us, I don't want to use controversial titles, words, paragraphs. Mum is the word as all of us, we want to be politically correct.

Well, I am a silly soul - that is a established fact. I was experimenting with my website - learn linux . Now that I got hold of one system admin book and actually sitting and reading it, like a child who finds a new toy.  

I decided to modify the website with the newly acquired knowledge.

I tried in favorite browser firefox. Funnily enough, it wasn't displaying many of the setting icons in title bar. When I struggled, and some how managed to change a page, the update button was not clicking. Nothing, I am unable to modify the page, nor able to save the page. What the billions of blistering barnacles  are happening. I rewrote, rewrote and rewrote. 

Then I thought I will use a different browser. It worked like a charm! For one day! Next day, it was behaving as crazy as ever. 

Some how I realized, apps might not be so this much problematic - as I had earlier experimented with flipkart. So I did install the wordpress app. It worked very well first day. OKish second day. And now, it is not letting me save nor update the page. 

I gave up - as people in similar circumstances tend to. I also was unhappy with the fonts and colors of the site. I tried modifying the theme.

Second mistake. 

First theme showed menus in bad color/font. I changed theme again. It was better. Except, it showed my face on top of every page. What! As Ratna Pathak said 'mai tajmahal hu kya'. 

I am not that  fond of my face and certainly would not want it shown in each page
of my website. I tried removing my face. The result, was menu vanished altogether!

And the next trial, showed me menu - but no home page. Empty page with a menu! expletive expletive expletive!!!

Now three hours later, I am sitting with OKish site with both home page, menu minus my face. 

 


You need to keep running to stay in the same place!
