We started creating a video blog to put up on You Tube. We’re hoping that some people out there might find it interesting and come on down to the website. Basically we’re saying much of what we do on the blog… but in video

I’m hoping this is a good way to get word out to people about how much we kick butt, and bring them on down to the website.

If you’re interested… Here’s the URL: http://youtube.com/watch?v=U6gX5E1qz7c

Cool! So we’re digging the poker night idea. So we have a very rough cut of the look we’re going for. After some tweaking and inserting of original video in the background. And of course we’ll have to change the music. But we like sharing and if anyone has any input, we’re always interested in hearing!

So check it out!

We’re pretty excited. And our brainstorming session is coming up soon as well… I’m going to shoot the session, and post any video highlights too!

Happy viewing!

So we have our first project idea. There’s a pretty unique Texas Hold’em tournament taking place in Portland.

Just a normal house game with a twist. They play once a month, and the final six people of that tournament get points, and first place gets a nice sized pot.

Some of the pot is held aside, and after 8 months, the top point leaders play one final table for a trip to Vegas and entry into the main event of some big tournament, (I think it’s the World Series of Poker… but I could be wrong.)

Anyways that will be a cool little project! We should be able to shoot the final 4 tourneys plus the big final game and have 5 episodes… Should be a very cool project!

Other than that, we’re working on getting a group of collaborators to sit down for a major brainstorming session! Should be a good time. They are a great bunch of high energy/ creative people. Think I might take a camera to that and post of of the highlights as well!

Cool! I think I’ve got this thing working!

Been working pretty hard on the website, but Will Work For Food Productions is mostly up and running!

We’re very excited! And hope to start working on some cool projects soon!

Thanks for stopping in, and pop by soon! We love getting to know people, and we figure that you’ll really dig what we’re doing!

This is the third post.

It appears on blog B only and in a single category.

b2evolution uses old-style permalinks and feedback links by default. This is to ensure maximum compatibility with various webserver configurations.

Nethertheless, once you feel comfortable with b2evolution, you should try activating clean permalinks in the Settings screen… (check ‘Use extra-path info’)

In the /blogs folder as well as in /blogs/admin there are two files called [sample.htaccess]. You should try renaming those to [.htaccess].

This will optimize the way b2evolution is handled by the webserver (if you are using Apache). These files are not active by default because a few hosts would display an error right away when you try to use them. If this happens to you when you rename the files, just remove them and you’ll be fine.

By default, b2evolution blogs are displayed using a default skin.

Readers can choose a new skin by using the skin switcher integrated in most skins.

You can change the default skin used for any blog by editing the blog parameters in the admin interface. You can also force the use of the default skin for everyone.

Otherwise, you can restrict available skins by deleting some of them from the /blogs/skins folder. You can also create new skins by duplicating, renaming and customizing any existing skin folder.

To start customizing a skin, open its ‘_main.php‘ file in an editor and read the comments in there. And, of course, read the manual on evoSkins!

By default, all pre-installed blogs are displayed using a skin. (More on skins in another post.)

That means, blogs are accessed through ‘index.php‘, which loads default parameters from the database and then passes on the display job to a skin.

Alternatively, if you don’t want to use the default DB parameters and want to, say, force a skin, a category or a specific linkblog, you can create a stub file like the provided ‘a_stub.php‘ and call your blog through this stub instead of index.php .

Finally, if you need to do some very specific customizations to your blog, you may use plain templates instead of skins. In this case, call your blog through a full template, like the provided ‘a_noskin.php‘.

You will find more information in the stub/template files themselves. Open them in a text editor and read the comments in there.

Either way, make sure you go to the blogs admin and set the correct access method for your blog. When using a stub or a template, you must also set its filename in the ‘Stub name’ field. Otherwise, the permalinks will not function properly.

By default, b2evolution comes with 4 blogs, named ‘Blog All’, ‘Blog A’, ‘Blog B’ and ‘Linkblog’.

Some of these blogs have a special role. Read about it on the corresponding page.

You can create additional blogs or delete unwanted blogs from the blogs admin.
