Doing Things Wrong

WordPress Again

It seems the WordPress team has been busy adding "features" to the new versions. Features that raise html errors. Otherwise known as bugs. I added some code to defeat the new "functionality". WordPress really needs to get some good product testers. Testing is just as important as writing buggy code in the first place.

This is a very useful tool:

Some of what I uncovered was my own fault, but most of it was WordPress getting, ahem, "better". Try this page in that tool - right now it finds no errors and two warnings that are both harmless and buried too deep in the WordPress core to be worth going after.


This is what I've settled on for the neck. The main part is plain maple from Home Depot. The headstock wings are leftover floorboard from the upright project, Brazilian Cherry. The fretboard is also Brazilian Cherry. The truss rod is 540mm, which will require a 21 fret neck. Or I could cut it down a bit and weld the ends back together, but that's more work.
