My webhost is experiencing some overload problems with their server that’s why my blog is offline most of the time… well,, it is a free hosting service…
Planning to move to paid hosting soon (with our church website)..
Soli Deo Gloria…
The first entry on this blog was September 27. And I didn’t notice that it’s already been a year since I started this website (if not with the renewal letter for my domain registration).
Well, I’ve been writing about sometimes non-sense and sometimes senseful things here.
I am not concerned with the web stats of my site (though I check that regularly). Just want to blog and speak my mind out.
God bless..
Soli Deo Gloria…
Was unable to update my blog for quite a time now. I’m busy. Well, not so busy, but being interrupted by calls while writing something is annoying. And I have to improve with my stats so I stay away from much surfing during work.
Well, got to get back to work now.
God bless.
Ever since I started this blog, I used the default theme of Wordpress. I had plans to use a different theme. But I had some problems in the configuration. I found this one, which fits my needs.
My next plan was to create my own theme. I don’t know how to write php or css. But it is time to learn.
Current theme by themestudio.
How do you like my new theme?
I do apologize, my blog was in an “on and off” state.
I had changed webhost, and encountered some problems with the database.. I don’t know if it is my fault. But I hope this is fixed now.
Thanks for bearing with me…
I will be on paid hosting soon…
Soli Deo Gloria…
Yes, at last.. I was able to revive my blog here at www.marvincruz.com. And, lo, I was able to import my posts from my old/temporary blog site allforhim.legionhost.com.. Yeah, it is a feature of wordpress to import/export blogs.. but I didn’t tried it. Well, that’s the solution for my problems.. hehe.. don’t be afraid to try…
Now that I have my blogsite up and running again. I’ll be posting more frequently now..
God bless..
Soli Deo Gloria…
Well, I screwed it up.
www.marvincruz.com, my official blogsite was screwed up. (I’m being redundant, hehehe)
What happened?
I was going to updgrade wordpress (the one that powers this blog). Too bad for me, I didn’t follow the instructions for upgrade. Well, I thought I did follow the upgrade instructions, but maybe I missed some part that caused this.
When I uploaded the files and tried to run the upgrade script, the page was blank. Tried to enter the back end (admin area), but still blank. I tried the homepage and it is working. Can’t add any post and I can’t manage my site. I asked some help from a blogger that also uses wordpress, but still no go.
I think the problem is with my webhost…
I didn’t know (cause I didn’t check it) that they are upgrading their mysql servers. I am not sure the cause. It is just marvincruz.com that is not working.
I’ll wait for the upgrade to finish and try to fix the problem. Or worst case, I may have to start my blog again from scratch (I have a back up of the mysql databse for my site and some files, I think I could use those for restore…?).
Anyways, I am back to blogging.
Soli Deo Gloria…
Well, I have enabled mine… Read this post from Nathan Diehl.
I’ve been eager to post this one, but due to some health and work concerns, I wasn’t able to do it…
But even if it is late, I’ll still announce that Wordpress, the one that powers this blog won the best open source social networking CMS last October at the Open Source Content Management System Award, 2007.

As you can see, I have placed google ads on my blog. I really don’t hope that much that I would profit form this ads. But it’s worth a try. The ad with a blue bar (bottom) is ad placed but the web host (I am using free hosting that’s why). Well, I’m hoping that someday this won’t just be a personal blog. So when the time come that this blog won’t be just a personal blog, everything is ready (including the ads
Well, if you think that I should not put ads on this blog. You can put a comment and state the reason why and I might consider your concern.
Have to think of what other contents I could place here. Also, I’m planning to change the name of the website.
God bless….
