Is anyone familiar with Wordpress?

I'd like to create a Wordpress Blog for the frontpage of Classic-Pirates.com for two main reasons

1. It would be much easier for SylOwl to update the frontpage. All he'd need to is create a new blog entry and not worry about HTML so much.
   
2. It could automatically create an RSS Feed of the frontpage news and that would help us reach more people.
   

Problem is I can't find the time to teach myself to set it up so I'm wondering if anybody already knows how? And I'm not referring to the version of the blog that's stored on Wordpress.com, I mean the one that you install to your own domain.

Do you have it yet? A friend of mine could do it, but I don't know how.

Nah mate. Problem solved a while ago. Classic-Pirates.com has been WordPress driven for some time now. Check it out. Click Here.

Someone should probably close this topic.

I agree. I'm PMing Mister Phes currently...The frontpage is nice though.

Well you have Mister Phes, SlyOwl, ImperialShadows, Skipper 24, Mister oo7, Mr Tiber and Captain Zuloo to thank for that!

I forgot all about this thread! I created it back in the days before I'd ever installed Wordpress but since then I've installed Wordpress half a dozen times so I'm getting pretty good at it.

Nonetheless, we're always looking for volunteers to assist with upgrading Classic-Priates.com - so if anyone has any skills to offer we're interested in hearing from you!

Well, you had to shove your name into that, didn't you Zuloo? Well, all of you guys did a great job. My friend can help. He isn't a member here, but I can force him to help with my cutlass. No, no, he will be glad to help.

First, it would probably be best if your friend voluntarily joined the forum. He might not like it! But if he decides to stick round for the longterm we could perhaps discussed opportunities.

Well, his mom won't allow him to...

Sadly, you can't be too careful with forums these days. Dissapointing though because Eurobricks is such a great place to be! And of course I had to add me - I'm the backbone of the whole place.Just joking. That would be Mister Phes. I'm justan insignificant frontpager.

I just joined the team (as a starter).

I'm insignificant.

Wow...you finaly seem to have aquired some self-knowledge.

Self-knowledge and understanding is the beginning of true Wisdom, Zuloo!

And I doubt anyone who needs permission from his mom to join a forum would be that valuable to C-P (not that I want to interfere or something). But it's always good you offered help, Thomas B.

Well ladies and gentleman. Let's keep this topic nicely on topic because I'm not at all interested in hearing what someone can and can't do from his mom!

If something I said is not clear, PM me instead of posting more off-topic 'whatever' in this thread.
