Fun with WordPress

Although I’m something of a ChatGPT sceptic, I have to say it is pretty handy for quickly working out how to do things with WordPress without having to trawl through countless posts.

So far I’ve used it to find out how to:

  • Display posts from only one category on the home page
  • Hide a category in the list of categories
  • Display dates the way I want
  • Show related posts without using a plugin

One thing it failed to do, though, was tell me how to style lists with a dash rather than the usual dots. Its answer was wildly misleading. Oh well!

My little project of moving from Hugo to WordPress, but trying to keep things as simple as possible, is coming along nicely. There’s a lot that doesn’t quite look the way I want — for example, category pages and images overall — but I’ll keep chipping away at it.
