The Book and Movie Review Show

Oh Thank God

This is a very short message, but I am just testing to make sure that all is well with the hosting transfer and for all intents and purposes I think it might be. Please let us know if anything is not working for you like it should or if you see something that’s been there forever that looks wonky.

The other benefit besides me saving money is that I was able to use put all of the posts and such into a new database; a new database that supports php 5.0, that is. WordPress is moving to that being more or less the standard with all of their new revisions and I’m glad that I can finally update the guts of the site to these new version now. Before, I was stuck with an older, less secure release because the database on the old hosting account was using php 4.whatever and there really was no “easy” way to transfer it all. Which is not to say that simply making a new database, putting all the old files into it, and then relinking it is difficult, per se, but it’s a pain in the ass and I really didn’t want to do unless I had to. And I had to when moving to this new hosting plan.

That’s all for now. I should probably get to editing the last episode of the show soon…
