So Long Wordpress

After far too many years of not getting around to it, I’ve finally migrated this blog off of WordPress. It now uses Hugo to statically generate the site.

While I’m still scratching the surface of what Hugo can do, and not entirely happy with this particular theme, the switch seems to have been pretty easy. I used WordPress to Hugo Exporter to migrate the content over which was pretty painless. Given this blog has had quite a few different approaches to authoring content over the years there will no doubt be some formatting that hasn’t come across all that well. Then again, there’s still a bunch of old format that doesn’t format correctly because of the transition from MoveableType to WordPress way back in the day. Oh well.

There’s a relatively good chance I’ve either broken RSS feeds and/or caused content to be double published. Sorry about that… The worst instance of that is that I took down our family travel blog and the domain wound up with a default resolve to my personal blog, which then caused a whole bunch of technical blog posts to be sent out to everyone who subscribed to our travel blog. Also sorry about that. You shouldn’t get this post as an email, but if you do, er, sorry again…
