Hi all!
So I’ve decided to make the move to WordPress.org using a self-hosted site. The URL should remain www.calliopespen.com and SUPPOSEDLY it will be a seamless transition. Hmmmm. Sounds too easy to me…
If I disappear from blogland for a while, it means I’m lost in cyberspace. Wish me luck!
UPDATE! Lesson #1: DO NOT CHANGE NAMESERVERS UNTIL YOUR SITE IS LIVE EVEN IF TECH SUPPORT SAYS IT’S OK.
Update your links to calliopespen.wordpress .com for now….stay tuned:)

Good luck!
Are you going to keep the same theme you have here, or will you go get a new one now that you’ll have total control of your CSS?

Changing the theme! One of the main reasons I’m doing this is to have more control over the look and feel and to learn some more about websites. I am positive I will be asking you for some knd of help hee hee hee

Ohmy, this is all very exciting. The techie in me wants to hear details. Might even email you!

Well I’ve already messed up LOL. But I should be an expert in all of this by the time it’s finished

Have a safe and happy journey on the WP Express! LOL
I hope it’s a smooth transition for you. I’ll update my reader.

Good luck with this, D! I have thought about doing this myself, so let us know how this works out for you..

When you’re all settled in, I hope you’ll say why you went this route.
I registered my domain, but stayed with WordPress.com. I’ll pay for the CSS upgrade when I have time to fiddle with it. But for now, I think that’s all I need.
And DarcKnyt, I completely forgot you were the one who tried to explain all this to us before.

Good luck! I am sure you will be happy with the results! I use wordpress.org for my personal website and it has some very cool features, especially when you start figuring out how to mess with the code.

OH! That’s why my links to YOu are being weird! Kept being thrown about. Will stay turned. I have questions but will wait until You’re moved in and settled! HOW COOL! Bon Voyage!!!!
