Hooray, Friday!

That week has flown by, somehow. Well, most of the last two days was gobbled up by the website migration, and there's still a chunk of issues to fix - though I managed to get one or the other already. Like this totally not helpful huge floating image of the basket when you're shopping. Or trying to shop on your mobile phone.

The intention behind this was to have a nice, accessible way to get to the shopping cart or basket or however you want to call it from anywhere inside the shop. So I made this medium-pretty basket image at one point (and there was the idea of replacing it, at some time, with a more medieval-style basket image, but, well, things happened) and inserted it to float at the top of the screen.

Which it does. Unfortunately, with the changed layout of the responsive design, on small screens it blows itself up to maximum size and is not helpful for shopping in peace and quiet anymore... due to overlaying most of the shop. As a customer, that would really annoy me. (Have I mentioned that running my own webshop has made me much more mellow in regard to things not working properly in other webshops? At least partly. Some things annoy me even more now.)

Fortunately, that was rather easy to solve - I just forbid it to display below a certain screen width. Whew.

Other things are not quite as easy; a lot of stuff has changed with the transition to the new major version, and now I have to find old files with my changes again, find out where the new files that have the same info in them are living now, and adapt the new files. There are also issues with changed (and thus broken) links, and the necessity to set up redirects for those. So the list of tasks to do is currently still growing - and I am looking forward to the point where it will shrink again!
