Veerle now at home at pMachine Hosting

29 comments 2006 at 02.10 pm posted by Veerle Pieters

Sigh! When you have a huge pile of work it is not a good time to sort out hosting trouble let me tell you. But I kinda got forced into it because the site had been down twice in such a short amount of time. There were moments that I wished that I was on the beach away from it all! After some research and the real good experiences that I already had with the folks at pMachine (now known as Ellislab) I decided to park my blog at the most logical place that I could think of pMachine hosting (now EngineHosting).

21 comments 2006 at 01.45 am posted by Veerle Pieters

Some of you asked for an Expression Engine tutorial a while ago and I thought today would be a good moment to explain how I implemented the comment boxes on my site. There is a lot to talk about so lets move ahead and get on to it…

Most of you will already know that I use Expression Engine as tool for my site (further referred to as EE) and that I enjoy working with this tool mainly because of its flexibility and user friendlyness.

Expression Engine updates

24 comments 2006 at 04.08 am posted by Veerle Pieters

Work has been using up most of my time lately but I finally created some time to do a little work on this blog. Sometimes there are moments that you would like to drop everything work related and just play in the sandbox that this little blog is. When this blog launched in this design on March 1st I told you that I still needed to do some work. Well the first thing that I took to the drawing board are the search results and advanced search page. Before today these pages we’re still in the default look that you get when you install ExpressionEngine.

SXSW wrapping up

39 comments 2006 at 01.15 pm posted by Veerle Pieters

I’m sitting in the lounge, waiting for the cab to take us to the airport. SXSW is all wrapped up for us. The city has been taken over by all those weirdo rock types joining the music conference. Too bad that most of the people hanging around are less friendly, and that’s a bit of a downer after all those hugs and vibes going on yesterday. It feels like you’re left with an emptiness. It’s back to virtual again ;) One thing is for sure SXSW is very good for networking and making new friends. Finally we can put a face to all those bloggers, designers and developers.

Veerle’s blog now 2.0

269 comments 2006 at 12.09 am posted by Veerle Pieters

Let me first begin by taking a deep ::sigh::, the last few days have been hectic to say the least. But hey, if it is for the greater good then bring it on ;) So I’m proud to announce the launch of Veerle’s blog 2.0, now Expression Engine powered. The amount of time was too short to make everything perfect and spotless clean, so bear with me for the time being while I’ll tweak some things that aren’t 100% yet.

Expression Engine contest and Veerle’s blog 2.0

34 comments 2006 at 04.23 am posted by Veerle Pieters

This will be the last post from now untill March 1st. Don’t worry I will be back in full force with Veerle’s blog 2.0. Yes, the cat is out of the bag I’m working on my redesign as we speak. I’m going to need all the time that I can get to pull this one of. Remember, I have to do client work in between too, so that’s the reason that everything is going in full stop mode ;-)

pMachine Pro now a free download

11 comments 2005 at 02.59 am posted by Veerle Pieters

pMachine Pro is the CMS that this blog is using. After a year of great satisfaction I can safely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a tool to setup a blog. Eventually when time permits I’ll move over to ExpressionEngine because of its power and flexibility. But if you want something similar like my blog pMachine will do the trick.

Designer meets brand new CMS

26 comments 2005 at 02.49 am posted by Veerle Pieters

A few months ago my first Expression Engine project* was born (update: at this moment the site is not available anymore). Looking back at it I can tell this was another challenge for me. This was actually the first dynamic business website I’ve built entirely by myself.

Are you in the market for a new cms tool?

5 comments 2004 at 12.42 am posted by Veerle Pieters

Tired of movable type because of its limits? Then you’re in luck because pMachine just released a next-generation publishing system. Over more then a year in the making and built with the idea to be the most flexible, modular, and scalable web publishing system on the planet. The newborn’s name is ExpressionEngine. I am currently checking out this tool because it sounds so diverse and powerful. With its support for data modeling, web services, work-flow, dynamic data caching, nested category trees, and much more, ExpressionEngine gives you the firepower to create a weblog with zero compromises.
