Solipsus

My name is Ben~~jamin~~. I come from the UK (although I was born in New Zealand) and I have been described as having a ginger personality. Whatever that means. I assume they're referring to my hair and my Ronald Weasley nature. Aside from that, I'm the only male blogger worth knowing.

You can thank Amber for that lovely introduction, but you deserve much more than just a small paragraph showing my nutty nature, therefore if you do wish to find out more, please visit the

Wordpress Problems

It seems I did something which messed up everything with my WordPress, so I have decided to switch to TextPattern. Unfortunately that means this site is going to be like this for a while until I can figure out how to use it, and make it the way I want it to be.

I am not too sure what is going to happen about all my previous posts because I accidently deleted the wordpress database, but I did export everything into a .xml file before doing it. TextPattern doesn’t import from .xml files so I might have to do it one by one. That can take a while, ouch.

Edit: I cannot figure out Textpattern and I don’t like it as much as WordPress. Though it may be bloated and not to the 1337 coder’s standards.. I like it. Thankfully I managed to fix my problems by adding a code to the .htaccess in my WP-admin folder.

In the process of converting to TextPattern I deleted the WordPress coding of my layout, so you will have to bare with me whilst I re-code it. :)

Yay WP :)

it may be bloated and not to the 1337 coder’s standards

I only got rid of my WP because it was starting to take over… It’s not that it wasn’t “up to standard”. If anything, it far outdoes my CMS but it just wasn’t working in the right ways for my site. I really do miss the plugin functionality though :( Plugins are the best. If I want anything for my site, I have to write it myself and that involves effort I don’t necessarily have :P
