Bio

I am a dinosaur, fluent in HTML, JSP, SQL, and other 1999 technologies, but totally new to WordPress. I now only maintain my Search and Rescue team’s brochure web site, http://www.buckeyesardogs.org. I’m reasonably useful with MySQL, but still pretty much new at PHP. I will probably ask a lot of comical questions that will cause the younger folks to roll their eyes.

WordPress Origin Story

I have to get my Search and Rescue team’s brochure web site (www.buckeyesardogs.org) converted from HTML/JavaScript into something newer so that one of my compatriots can take over the maintenance, and WordPress was suggested as the best fit. I currently only have WP installed on my development laptop, but I’ve got a child theme in place and I’m not afraid to code in PHP, but I’m new to it. I have copied all of my text in from the old site at this point, but I’m only running local at this time.
