Week 8

super eight

  JUNE 6th – 8th

 

I completed phase 2 of the WordPress development project. I granted administrative access to WordPress users using WP-CLI commands in Mac Terminal. I cataloged my progress and discoveries in an Airtable spreadsheet.

I had to troubleshoot in Terminal after running into an LDAP integration / database synchronization issue. I was listed as an administrator on my Terminal, but was unable to log in the WP site; however, Marianne’s desktop said I was not listed on the wp user list. Thanks to Marianne, the problem was solved by adding me to the list as an administrator using another desktop. I wanted to learn more to see if I could prevent this issue from occurring again, so I turned to GPT-4 for some wisdom.

I also completed my self-portrait for the STA Blog Post website! I used generative fill in photoshop to design a 3d avatar, and after customizing it to my liking, the end result exceeded my expectation of what Adobe Firefly was capable of.

 

I ran into a Photoshop issue and had to troubleshoot. A masking layer was automatically cropping the image and kept doing so even after I manually erased the mask and saved my work. I was eventually able to solve the issue after playing around with a few parameters in the mask’s editing window. Special thanks to Leilani, Adrian, and Luisa for their Photoshop guidance.
