Killing It
Here is a comic! It arrives even though I spent hours today trying to get my site back up and running. If you’re reading this it (kind of) worked! Looks like some things don’t work – like my ads – as well as other things. No idea what happened – nor do I know what I did to fix it. Please let me know if you spot any other glaring errors! (And yeah, I am aware of that weird looking header, but at this point I’m just happy to have the site working at all.)
Edit Jan 13: Spent a while trying to fix some of the issues without making a whole lot of progress. Annoyingly the ages old ComicPress theme doesn’t quite work as before with the new version of WordPress I installed. Just a head’s up: Comic updates might be slightly sporadic as I keep tinkering with the site, but hah- I will probably get bored of trying soon and draw a comic instead.
Hey… hey, Kristian… that header looks weird…
But seriously, if you open the developer tools of your browser, you’ll spot some errors. For example, it’s trying to load custom_style.css in http and not https, and that’s not allowed anymore. Also we get a 404 on adlogger_tracker.php, and that may explain the problem with the ads.
I’m a web developer, if you’re in need of some help just ask away!
Also, I didn’t start a war either and I’m feeling pretty accomplished too!
Thanks, Max! I will try to clean up those issues over the weekend, but at least it is up and running now. I went through the Internal Server Error checklist of htaccess, PHP Memory limit as well as potential theme and plugin errors, but none of the suggested fixes made any impact.
The HTTPS issue makes sense I think – when the site was down I couldn’t even reach the WordPress Dashboard, and I could only access my host’s Web panel (and eventually FTP) – and pretty much the only highlighted issue there was a missing HTTPS certificate. I installed it and an hour later I suddenly got Dashboard access again, which probably isn’t connected(?) Anyway, I then edited the htaccess file to force HTTPS, but I guess there are some related referrals that need updating as well.
