Learning
Learning is a very wondeful thing. I have been at the school of learning in the past few weeks, most of the learning has been through books of course, but then, where else are we told to go other than to our books. I know it is easier to learn from Youtube and other video sources but then I digress.
I have learnt something about how some companies are run, how to design websites with Dreamweaver, and how to mock-up a website with Photoshop, while at it, I learnt about using the photoshop mock-up to create a website in Dreamweaver and it was one of those Aha! moments, it just blew me away. After that I delved into the world of WordPress. Yes I know I am already using WordPress on my site. But after the few things I just learnt, I asked myself would it be so bad to try and develop and WordPress theme and donate to the WordPress repository as a means of giving back to the system. And that is how the journey began, the journey to become a wordpress theme developer.
I have already developed a theme with assistance from a tutorial I read in a mag and I could see my name as theme developer and all that but I need to do something from the scratch which will require learning some PHP, CSS and improving my HTML as well as Photoshop manipulation but then it is good so far though I have found Coda 2 an intersting piece of software but still learning to use it.
Now in this quest, the first question is this, How do you convert a Dreamweaver site to a WordPress theme? I have seen some stuff out there and I hope to post tutorials when I learn anything in this quest but I will appreciate any help.
Thanks

I reviewed my email this morning as it is something I have struggled with in recent times. The prompt to actually review the email was the need to locate the email for a book I got a few days ago.
While looking through the mail, I got an email from Jetpack about the observation that one of my WP plugins which I got early on had issues which made it vulnerable to remote attacks.
I looked at the plugin (WPBakery plugin version older than 6.4.1) and decided that with the design of the new wordpress system, it was no longer required.
I uninstalled the plugin and that was it.
A few minutes later I asked myself, could that be the reason I struggled to log-in using MarsEdit? I fired up the app and did a sync and behold the app synced and I got the latest update from the site.
This has been bugging me for a while and my next plan was to do a systematic elimination of the plugins.
This sync issue had consumed hours of troubleshooting but with no solution.
Glad that is over and done with!
This cleared all my third-party app sync issues with the website which is a relief indeed as it is a much faster way to post to and update posts on the website.
