HowTo: Wordpress.com To Self - Hosted Wordpress

This is documentation of how I moved Iamshallow.wordpress.com to a new domain, Tooshallow.com. This post may can also be referred as 'Moving a Wordpress.com blog to Self-hosted Wordpress' as the process is the same. I've broken it down into 3 stages:

  • Preparing the domain name.
  • Self-Hosted Wordpress Installation
  • Importing from Wordpress.com to the new Self-Hosted Wordpress

Why Would You Want To Go To WordCamp Phils. 2010?

Last January, I posted details on this site about WordCamp Philippines 2010. Browsing around Facebook today, I happened onto its page again and realized nothing's changed. And for me, that's a problem.

See the last time I checked it, it didn't have an agenda. 3 months later as I write this, apparently it still doesn't have one.

But does that deter people from hyping it up? Strangely, no. As I write this, there are 190 confirmed guests, and a venue hasn't been announced yet. That is amazing.

How To Embed A Video In A Hosted Wordpress Blog

I received a couple of .mov videos I wanted to upload on BallEx, which uses Wordpress 2.7.1, the latest version as I write this. I had never uploaded *hosted videos on Wordpress before other than the embedded versions from YouTube and similar services, so I decided to try it out, bandwidth issues begone.

Turns out it wasn't as easy as I thought. Here's what I had to do.

First of all, here's how my 'Add New Post' page on Wordpress looks like. I do not use the 'visual editor' since I usually write my posts in HTML. *Tip to bloggers out there: learning even a little HTML can give you much better control over your post's appearance.

Anyway, right beside the words 'upload/insert', there are a few icons that indicate you can add an image, a video, an audio file or 'media'. I tried several times, 'Add Video' DOES NOT WORK.

Drupal Nirvana Achieved With Mom Exchange

Here, ladies and gentlemen, is a screencap of my todo list last Holy Week for my Drupal powered site MomEx (yes I just use notepad. Am very unsophisticated that way):

With little x marks on the side to indicate they.are.now.finished.

Let's go through them in detail, or at least those I can screencap:

MS Acknowledges (gasp!) Wordpress, Drupal, PHP, etc.

By way of Weblogtoolscollection, whose feed you need to be subscribed to if you run any number of Wordpress powered sites, I learned of MS' Web Platform and its offering of web apps that I assume would run on Windows Server, IIS and SQL Server (otherwise why would they mention these at all?).

I say 'assume' because neither Weblogtoolscollection or Thestandard.com, who both covered this earth shaking piece of news, confirmed whether these'd run on IIS, etc.
