Ok, so first up, apologies to anyone following this Ghost account on Mastodon, because this morning you will have been spammed to hell and back, as I've just published nearly 200 posts of content going back 11 years!

I found a JavaScript console method to publish all my old archived posts sitting in draft mode, rather than sitting and going through nearly 200 posts manually one-by-one and publishing them individually. Sod that.

So the site is now fully content complete.

Older posts will be ugly as hell, missing images and so on, and I may go back and fix that at some stage, if I get excessively bored, but let's be honest here, for the amount of traffic those posts would get, even in the long-term, the effort probably isn't worth it.

So that's the blog complete again, with content going back to 2015. Well, I say complete, because the blog itself, in one form or another has been going around 30 years at this point, across various services, hosts and periods of my life.

I'd love to have a fully complete blog going back that far, but that's impossible at this stage, with so much of my written history before 2015 consigned now to the digital void.

But we have at least these 11 years of my writing, and it's nice to have that record now available online, even if it's just for me in the main. I wish I still had all the images etc that formed parts of those posts, or that WordPress exported the likes of callouts and CTA's (Calls to Action) properly, but it doesn't (or didn't at the time I left WP back in 2024).

But, if you can ignore the broken image links and weird layouts, they're there at least!
