My son has been writing for another website for a while now. He is now one of the top writer for the Mets on the Bleacher Report. You can check 0ut his bio here. I find it amazing that people actually ask him questions. People really respect his opinion. I’m amazed how the web does such […]
Until now, people have gone into The Pet Wiki to make minor edits here and there. Yesterday was the first time that someone has gone in on done some major work on any of the pages. Check out the mice page. The style is a bit different than we’ve been doing until now, but I really […]
My son loves the New York Mets. He’s been a fan since his first baseball game at Shea. Feeling a little left out of The Pet Wiki, he decided to start his own Met Wiki. I wonder what will be next. Will my oldest start The Art Wiki? Who knows. Right now it’s all a […]
I was at a talk on SEO recently where I was told that you need to do sitemaps. Google will be able to index your site 4x’s faster if you put them up. Unfortunately I have not seen this yet on The Pet Wiki. I put up a site map a couple of weeks ago, […]
No, my mother has not finished adding dogs. She keeps finding more. She’s even added designer dog breeds like Bogles and Giant Schnoodles. She needs a break from from dogs, so she’s now decided to add horses to The Pet Wiki. There seems to be a lot out there. So far she’s added the following […]
We had to shut off Akismet (at least for now) because it was stopping my mom from working on the page What are some illnesses affecting dogs? That page has a kosher link and when she tried to save, she was blocked. I guess it wasn’t kosher enough for Akismet. There is a while list that we […]
Now that we’ve tried to make it easier for people to add content, it seems like the spammers have taken to adding a ton of links that just don’t belong. It’s been a real battle to keep up with the mess that they are making. There are a bunch of add-ins and extensions that we’ve […]
I still haven’t been able to find anything about redirects since we got the Simple URLs up on The Pet Wiki. Most of the links to the site (that I know of) come from this blog. I’ve gone through my old blog posts and modified the urls. I hope that what I did didn’t kill […]
It took a bit of doing, but we finally got the site to use Simple URLs instead of that ugly title=[Page Name] on our MediaWiki (The Pet Wiki) based site. It wasn’t that difficult after we found the solution, but it took a ton of time to find it. Since the site is on GoDaddy, we […]
So cool. Almost everything that you can think about someone has already developed for the MediaWiki. The MediaWiki is so incredibly powerful. The lastest thing that we added to the The Pet Wiki has been a way to comments on pages. After adding the extension for the comments, you need to add <comments/> to the Wikitext of the page. […]
