Now I remember what I did yesterday afternoon. You know, those couple of hours I spent staring at the monitor, but thought I’d just spaced out? I transferred a bunch of web pages to the pro site.

It did not go smoothly. I got it in the end, though. No wonder I wiped it out of my memory.

Today’s web work has also not gone smoothly.

Coding is never as easy as it presents itself to be. According to the instructions I’ve been following, my redirects should all work, and they don’t. The redirection keeps adding a trailing backslash when I am very specifically not typing one in, and everything breaks along the way. And the redirects I’ve taken off/edited show as taken off/edited in my list of redirects, but are still redirecting incorrectly when I actually type the page address in. Wake me up when everything is as it’s supposed to be.

(Why yes, I am avoiding the spread of manuscript pages on the floor of the living room. Why do you ask?)

I wish I had the money to hire someone to do this.

ETA: Well, that will solve things eventually — I just deleted the subdomain. Not on purpose, mind you, but I am not at all fussed about it. And guess what? The non-existent subdomain still redirects. Which means that for whatever reason, the changes I’m making aren’t updating properly. I may or may not recreate the subdomain expressly for the purpose of having a redirection. Not important at the moment; people can default to the second URL on my business cards.
