Now using SVN to manage Wordpress upgrades

Published by jaseone at 8:43 am under Information Technology, Wordpress

Well after yesterday’s disaster I have successfully moved my Wordpress installation over to be managed by SVN, meaning I can upgrade with a simple command and not worry about updating anything or moving anything, which is going to be great and it is going to allow me to get into some Wordpress ahcking and hopefully eventually some real development work.

Also for this to work I had to get with the times and create a new theme to hold my modifications instead of just piggybacking on the default theme and I also had to create a plugin to enable the code changes for the CSS Dropdown menu, I need to refine that plugin just a little more and when I have you will be able to insert the menu where you like by installing the plugin and some supporting files in your theme directory then inserting a call to jbcssmenu_wp_list_pages() in your template where yoiu would like the menu to appear.

Please let me know if you notice any breakage after this change. :)
