Grabbing the Blog by the Horns, Pt. 2
The subtitle of this entry could be “fighting with Statamic, getting thrown to the ground, getting up, dusting myself off, getting kicked in the teeth, spitting out blood, advacing with fists up, and finally getting a knock-out blow in”.
In truth, I’m pretty sure that my issues in getting Statamic to work the way I want is 95% my fault. It was one of those scenarios where I had it working, made a minor change, broke something, reverted my minor change, everything still broke, omg wtf, ask ChatGPT, and down that rabbit hole I went. I think I also relied on ChatGPT too often.
My “Breakthrough” in fixing my issue started with reading the Statamic Docs. Which… I would think ChatGPT would’ve read. The issue stemmed from something stupid simple: wanting to put images between pagagraphs in the blog post. Something that’s pretty much default in any article-posting type of system. I’m not sure why originally it wasn’t working, but after several hours, I finally got things sorted between my Bard Field type, the Blueprint, and my content.
whew.
Now back to my semi-regularly posting drivel schedule.
