Thursday, August 31, 2023 3:50 PM: Blog Updated to WordPress v6.3.1

Just updated my blog to WordPress v6.3.1 which is a maintenance release containing 10 bug fixes between the Core and block editor. As always, I backed up my files and database first. I have automatic updates disabled so I can do this beforehand. As I usually do, I updated the local copy on my PC before updating the blog here.

My TwentyTwelve parent theme was not updated so I did not have to worry about anything affecting my child theme. So far the update seems to have gone well. 🙂

Wednesday, August 9, 2023 10:16 AM: Blog Updated to WordPress v6.3

Just updated my blog to WordPress v6.3 which seems to be a major update of sorts. I'll let you read their information to find out what all is in it. As always, I backed up my files and database first. I have automatic updates disabled so I can do this beforehand. As I usually do, I updated the local copy on my PC before updating the blog here.

My TwentyTwelve parent theme was updated to version 4.0 but did not contain any changes affecting my child theme. So far the update seems to have gone well. 🙂

Wednesday, July 5, 2023 5:15 PM: Twitter Timelines Removed from My Websites

Update July 25, 2023: Well, it seems that if you are logged into Twitter, you can see the embedded profile timelines now. However, I just realized that if you are not logged into Twitter, you still just see the “Nothing to see here – yet” message. So, it still makes it not worth including them in my eyes. Ergh.


Well, whatever Twitter has done recently to not allow you to view tweets unless you are logged in (which may or may not still be case) has possibly caused the embedding of profile timelines (showing tweets you've made) to not work. The all seem to come back with a message of “Nothing to see here – yet” . There must be more than just requiring to be logged in, since I am logged in. In fact, it doesn't even work on their own Twitter Developer Platform Timelines page.

Until they get it working again or come up with some different process, I have removed these timeline widgets from my Blog, Main Website, and Mysstie site.

Related to this, I have also stopped importing my tweets into my blog for some time (Daily Tweets category) and automatically sending new blog post notifications to Twitter as they have suspended all of my PHP script based applications. This has also affected my ability to automatically send new gallery image notifications to Twitter. They now have a new API structure set up which I'm just not going to sign-up for due to the costs. 😮

It all kind of just sucks and we'll have to wait and see where it all ultimately settles out. I will continue to use Twitter but in more a manual process, LOL. On a side note, I hope everyone one had a great 4th of July! 🙂

Wishing everyone a Happy (and safe) 4th of July! :). There’s Uber and Lyft services; so, there’s no excuse for anyone to drink and drive.

Have a great Independence Day! 🙂 🎆🎇🎇🎆
