A place just for me

New coat of paint incoming

I haven’t been happy with any of the themes I have installed on this site since I started it. WordPress sent a notice about the new 2025 default theme and it looks pretty nice, but still is not what I want. I’ve decided to just figure out how to create my own so I’ll stop getting like 70% of the way there only to find that I can’t change what I want to change. I started messing around but it was really annoying trying to test things out and not break the site at the same time. Luckily I still have chrisweber.online so I’ll setup a test site on that. Actually, I’ll probably just copy over the Zion site to it for testing.

I’m hoping if I read through a couple tutorials on how the templates work and get at least something basic completed this week.

    This youtube series on creating a theme from scratch might be useful.

      I watched the first few episodes and that help with the stucture, but I think I’m just going to use the editor, which appears to be able to do everything I want.
