archived pages

A blast from the past. WordPress provides archiving for posts but it doesn’t expect you to want to archive pages. One reason for not simply deleting pages is so that you don’t break any external links. You can easily hide a page by removing it from the menu and setting a 301 redirect on it to the replacement page. I’ve done that for some of the pages on the site. But I’ve also created an archive page, which is not in the main menu, so that you can at least have a look at what was there, even if the 301 never lets you see all the content. This could produce some interesting results!

Version from October 2011

The oik screenshot slideshow is produced using the [ gpslides] shortcode, which makes use of slideshow-gallery-pro The next two short codes wouldn’t work in the current implementation… [ slideshow] – initially this didn’t work because there were no images attached to the page. Now it doesn’t (appear to) work because the Slideshow Gallery Pro plugin does not support two instances within the same page. [ ngslideshow] – because nextgen-gallery is not activated on this site.

oik QR code sticker

oik QR code sticker
This is a daft page that you might end up at if you see the following sticker on Bobbing Wide‘s business cards and point your smart phone at it. Actually, with version one, it takes you to the oik home page. If you then click on the QR code image it gets decoded ( to http://tinyurl.com/43a4kx4 ). If you then cut and paste the tinyurl into a browser you get taken to www.oik-plugins.com. Version 1.0 of the sticker is daft because:
  1. The page that your smart phone takes you to is not responsive…. it doesn’t work well for Smart phones
  2. If you click on the image to get it decoded you get put into a loop
  3. So there should be a read more button about QR codes and how you might choose to use them
Version 1.1 of the sticker should avoid some of the problems by directing your smart phone,  iPad or whatever you have that can read QR codes, to a responsive page that will look OK on your device and tell you more about the [ bw_qrcode] shortcode and how you might want to use it for your mobile marketing.   Here we go again QR code for oik-plugins
