Repository files navigation

This is why you write a readme on projects, so you know how to work them a couple years later when your CDN goes bankrupt.

Running Locally

  1. open a console, cd blogs
  2. hugo server to launch the site locally

All the media

All of the old wordpress media is now linked from Blob Storage: https://lessthandot.z19.web.core.windows.net/

This also has an older generated copy of the static site, as the first home of the archive.

Asset files

All the uploads for the original wordpress site are stored outside the git repo because it's a lot of media content.

  1. Blob Storage: lessthandot storage account in LessThanDot Archive subscription: https://lessthandot.z19.web.core.windows.net/
  2. Eli's harddrive and NAS backup
  3. Original LTD Wordpress FTP backups, if they exist still

TODO

Main Site:

  1. ✔ Update google analytics to newer version
  2. ✔ Update hugo to newer version
  3. ✔ Fix errors and layout changes due to extreme version upgrade of hugo
  4. ✔ Reroute all wp-content to go to azure storage $web directly so we don't have to re-host it
    • replace /wp-content to https://lessthandot.z19.web.core.windows.net/wp-content
    • assets in storage are doubled, both in original case and lowercase
  5. ✔ Build process to use github action and deploy to an Azure static website
  6. ✔ Fix issues
    • Custom 404 page
  7. ⏳ Change DNS to point to new site

SQLCop:

  1. Figure out how to host it at subdomain
  2. Update download links to pull directly from storage
  3. Remove or update DNS entry

Cleanup:

  1. Set the edgio feature flag to not convert to frontdoor
  2. cleanup edgio CDNs somehow?
  3. Cleanup DNS
