Hi friends, welcome to the new Liv for Cake! I’ve spent the better part of this week switching over from Blogger to WordPress, messing around with custom tools and settings, and more time than I’d like to admit on the phone with tech support. In the process, I’ve managed to chew off ALL of my fingernails.
While Blogger was much easier to use, it was very limited in features and what you could actually do with your website. The main reason that precipitated the switch over was the ability to have a tool to create recipes in that would make it easy for the reader to print. In the Blogger format I had to manually format recipes, and if someone wanted to print it they’d have to either print the entire page or copy/paste the recipe into a document to print it.
With WordPress I can insert a recipe into the bottom of the post and it will have a PRINT button, which makes it easy for anyone to print off.
See?? Awesome. That was just the tip of the iceberg.
I still have a couple of pages to update and features I want to add, but I wanted to get the new site out there. There’s also a cool newsletter feature where you can subscribe to get an email when there is a new post. You can find this on the right hand side of the page. I had the most trouble getting this to work properly and am not 100% convinced that it does. On that note…with the transition, there will likely be a few bugs, broken links, etc. I’ve tried to test as much as I can, but if you guys encounter anything weird or broken please let me know.
Hope you like the new look!
