Blog

How this blog works

Each entry is a collapsible card with a date, tags and a full text block. Search looks at the title, excerpt and body. Tag filters let you narrow the feed without reloading the page.

Archive shape

The current feed is intentionally small. New entries can be appended in chronological order, and the sort control can flip the view when you want to review older items first.

Publishing rule

Keep posts short, factual and photo-led. That suits the rest of the site and makes the page cheap to maintain.

Canonical domain and live hosting check

The tree site is now treated as the canonical version, but the live host still needs the domain mapping fixed in Webas.

This entry records the current state of the deployment work. The repository and the tree directory are updated, but the browser can still land on the wrong project if the hosting panel keeps the `www` alias pointed elsewhere. The next step is to fix the document root and redirect rules, then verify the chosen canonical URL from the browser.

That keeps the site clean for both people and search engines: one address, one version of the content, one indexable source of truth.

Photo set expanded for the front page

Additional context and front-page images were added so the opening view can rotate through a fuller set of photographs.

The homepage gallery now has a broader set of photos, which makes it easier to show the tree in different conditions and from different distances. That helps with identification, context and visual scanning on the first screen.

The set is still restrained: one image remains the lead, and the rest are there to support the record rather than overwhelm it.

Navigation simplified and dead pages removed

Gallery and guests links were removed from the menus, and the guestbook subpage was retired.

This change stripped the navigation down to the core pages: start, facts, blog and contact. Fewer choices at the top make the site faster to scan and reduce the chance of dead ends.

The guestbook content can come back later if there is a moderated publishing workflow that is worth maintaining. For now, the site stays lean and easier to keep accurate.
