Dave on I can’t make the Nulis theme work with modals and there’s been a problem with CSS for a while; I am planning to switch my theme again.

Dave on I have some notes on the wordpress schema; I am trying to tidy up my tag list on my blog, there’s a shed load of tags which only have one entry in the database, there are some spelling mistakes and some inconsistency in the use of spaces and plurals.

Dave on A poll, using YOP Poll between Red & Blue
Dave on While experimenting with YOP Poll, I came across Easy Index, which looked rather pretty, although it depends on on the featured images chosen. I made a category index to see how it looked.
