January 2024 Channel Update

Hey and welcome to another Channel Update. In these blogs, I want to give you an update on what has been going on in my life and on the website as I strive to create a kickass resource for you.

Personal

  • Celebrated Mike’s fifth birthday. It was a busy day but we had fun.
  • Played some Mario Wonder with my youngest Son. He did okay in the early levels but going into the third region he needs someone to carry him.
  • Also played some Riftbreakers. I keep going back to this game as it has all these base-building and resource-management elements as you discover an alien planet. However, your presence triggers waves of enemies that ambush your base.
  • My 2024 New Year’s Resolution

Website

I have been doing a bunch of research and development on the MentalMarsV4 theme.

Changed the default styling to fall in line with what you are accustomed to here on V3 but with a modern look. Also, applied some layout enhancements to a better user experience. Because the new site uses a different page builder that I haven’t worked with before, there is a bit of a learning curve for me but I also want to raise the bar on many different elements.

The new theme creates a bunch of resized images every time I upload a new image to the site, just like this one. However, I want to limit that because of the amount of content on this website as it will consume the number of files the server can handle. This is something I need to take care of because I’m already at 75%. Just to be clear, the number of files and the disk space are 2 different things as I have plenty of storage space.

Borderlands

Borderlands content is slow because one, there isn’t any new content, and two, I’m investing this time into making the new site happen so I can level everything up.

Others HUBs

  • Immortals of Aveum:
    • Didn’t write any content for this game this month. I did do research on what other websites are doing and what content I can still add.
  • Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands:
  • Redfall:
    • Nothing here. I haven’t been playing the game anymore as the updates to the game are fixes and don’t add new content.
  • Battleborn:
    • I have been updating a bunch of my old articles because they had a lot of spelling errors and used a page builder I want to step away from. This improves the overall quality of the site but also makes it easier to transfer those articles to the new site.
    • Sorry for the Battleborn Push Notifications. Apparently, some old articles still had the setting to send a notification every time the article gets updated.
