Paul, do you have a backup of lilypondblog.org?
I might try converting it to a static site generator and host it on
some free platform.
Hi Federico, Thanks for your message. I'd like to help with this.
Unfortunately, I don't have an up-to-date backup on my local machine.
I tried logging into my shared hosting account and I can still
access the WordPress database for the site. (I could export the
database to something like JSON or other options, but I'm not sure
that raw data is very useful.)
I haven't confirmed but it looks like the domain has expired but the
WordPress installation is still there. So what I'd like to try (when
I can find time) is setting up a temporary subdomain somewhere and
pointing it at the WordPress installation. If that works to let me
log into the WP site, then I could use a plugin to do an "export to
static html and css files" which could then be hosted somewhere or
converted to a static site generator, etc.
Where is the Wordpress installation?
I thought it was on your personal server...
My plan is using Hugo, which has some options to migrate a site written
in Wordpress:

If it works, the lilypond blog may have a second life and accept new
contributions using a git workflow.
