Don't want to give up on my project. Was wondering if I would be better off buying a new hard drive and setting my system to boot to Linux OS(Ubuntu?). As opposed to testing all of this on Windows 7 with WAMP server. Or perhaps I could just set up a Linux partition. Any tips?
Started out that all I wanted to do was use different templates(including Comicpress etc...) in WP...was suggested to me that I use WPMU and just use the blogs...because I can use different themes/templates(customising each one). That gave me the idea to have my main site/blog(static site) be DMS Custom designs, my artwork portfolio(a gallery plus)...a sort of HQ for the rest...the rest being...site 2, Drawings and Paintings Plus(a ComicPress site), site 3, being Community Collaborative...a social network including Buddypress and bbPress. So far I finally got all of it somewhat functional...THEN I add a simple plugin...or change permalinks and "something" breaks. I deleted .htaccess in bbpress and got that back. Whew! Still I want permalinks better than they are.(that can wait for now?) Now...I am noticing strange behavior with the links...looking at the top windows bar and what it reads...etc...just some strange stuff. Will list that when I go back through and log each discrepancy. Uggh!
For now...would I be better off with WPMU etc... in Linux locally???
Please help and advise.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
David Sellers
