Hi guys!
Sooo, well, I’ve moved! Since my plan for NotJustaBookSims.com runs out at the end of August, I thought there was no time like the present to move things over to my own domain. If you’re reading this in your reader, it means I haven’t bungled it. If you’re not… dear god how did you find me? Hoooow??
Anyway, it was just time. I save a little money on having a domain of my own, and on top of everything I can install plugins and code it up to my heart’s content.
One small change does affect you, if you link to my site. My blog will no longer be known as NotJustaBookSims.com, but as NotJustaBookSims.net. It only affects those who link to my blog from theirs, so just a heads up for you guys. Otherwise, the only new things are slightly different organisation and a spiffy new layout. Please tell me if it’s hard to find your way around or if I messed something up. I’ve had to alter I don’t know how many pages and links and all kinds of funky things can happen.
Now I’m going to bite my nails worrying that I bungled everything.
See you in the next post,
~Louise
EDIT: Stuff doesn’t work, apparently. I’m working on that so uh… bear with me. Basically, my posts don’t seem to show up in the reader and nobody can comment. I’m trying to sort it out with support.
EDIT 2: So, the posts do seem to appear in the reader and you can comment through the reader. On the blog proper… not so much. Still trying to fix things…
EDIT 3: I’m crying a little here. In our attempt to fix things, we broke ALL THE LINKS ON THE BLOG. So um… that’s a thing.
EDIT 4: Seems I managed to fix the links. Do tell if I missed some!

Wow, it sounds like you have your hands full.
No matter where you go, I will always be an avid reader and one of your biggest fans!! 🙂

I really, really, really do! Oh dear what a mess. Thank you SO MUCH FOR COMMENTING, btw. I had no idea if it worked for anyone but me and boyfriend so you’re my knight in shining armour right now… can you tell I’m getting worn out here or what?!?!
Thanks for your kind words as well <3

These things have a way of working themselves out in the end. Don’t stress.

Ha, ha, I’m trying :’) Thank you <3

This is awesome! Love the look of your new site, and your avatar as well 🙂

Thank you so much, Lila <3 I'm glad you like it. Makes it feel like all that trouble was worth it!

Your new site is so beautiful, I love it!! <3 (I saw the e-mail yesterday but the post wasn't showing on my reader… which is fortunately not the case now! 😀)

I saw that someone from Greece had been viewing the site yesterday – that’s part of why I knew it didn’t work :’)
Thank you so much <3 I'm glad you like it!

Oh, I couldn’t comment yesterday. I’m glad everything seems to be working now. You surprised me with notifications on pingbacks from eons ago!
NotJustaBook · July 13, 2018 at 9:00 pm
Aaand, you ended up in the spam filtre! 😛 Poor Jowita…
Ha, ha, sorry about the confusion. Things were a bit funky. Still haven’t even made comments on the blog itself work, and support is silent! Hopefully everything’ll work soon.
loladiamond01 · July 13, 2018 at 9:02 pm
Oh, it’s wonderful. WP hates me once again 🙂 Because it happened to me on another blog just yesterday.
NotJustaBook · July 14, 2018 at 1:29 am
WP has to throw little tantrums now and again :p

Wow! You did it and I knew you could! This is great and you’ve done a beautiful job! Now, you can do anything with your blog without restrictions! Welcome to self-hosted! <3 😀
NotJustaBook · July 12, 2018 at 8:47 pm
Thank you so much, Kym 😀 <3 I'm very glad you like it, and I'm so excited about being able to do whatever I want! Being self-hosted is great!
Kymber · July 13, 2018 at 5:30 pm
You said it! It’s the best decision I’ve made in a long while. With how artistic you are, and how you like to design your site, it’s a really good feeling to know the sky is the limit. <3
NotJustaBook · July 13, 2018 at 5:41 pm
Word! 😀 <3 Now if only my webhost would fix the issue with comments, ha, ha :P
Kymber · July 13, 2018 at 6:25 pm
LOL 😀 It will all come together before you know it. I remember sweating some bullets and shedding some tears when I switched mine over. <3 <3
NotJustaBook · July 13, 2018 at 6:59 pm
I shed some tears when deleting everything on my old blog. :’)
Kymber · July 13, 2018 at 10:01 pm
That’s totally understandable. 🙂

My wifi is super spotty here so I had to wait till I found a strong connection to browse around the new site~ Congrats on the move! You shall probably feel more liberated in how you are able to format things now. I love the red+black+white color combo, very stylish, as well as your new avi and site photo 😀 <3
NotJustaBook · July 13, 2018 at 2:21 pm
Thank you very much 😀 I already feel like i have so many more options. It’s awesome to be able to install plug-ins! 😀 I’m really glad you like the style as well <3
