Off We Go On Another Journey...

10/22/2022

It is early morning in Bangkok, 06:56 to be precise. My train leaves the station at 13:45 and I am already packed and ready.

I will slam an espresso, print out the cheat sheet I made with my necessary information, make a few updates online, shower and head to the train station. Better early than late.

It's been a while since I've undertaken a journey outside of Thailand and logistically the only difficulties are whether or not I can get from point A to point B in a timely and cost-effective manner. Beau, my wife, arrives in Ho Chi Minh sometime between the end of this month and November 2. With any luck I will be in Laos for a week, then meet her in Vietnam where I will stay for 10-12 days.

How to Setup Solar

Step 1. Create a Homepage

Even if you already have a home page, you'll need to create a new one since Solar needs a blank page to automatically pull and display your blog posts in the magazine layout. You can create a new homepage by going to "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Standard" page.

Step 2. Apply "solar" Page Layout

Once you create a new homepage, apply the "solar" page layout to the new homepage. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, select the homepage on the left, and under "HEADER TYPE", select "solar".

Step 3. Create A Blog

If your site doesn't have a Weebly "Blog" page, then create a new "Blog" page. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Blog Page".

Step 4. Setup Blog Automation

Come back to this screen and fill in the input boxes with the URL of your "Blog" page and 3 category URLs from that blog.
