Comments working again

Just a quick note: The com­ment issue wasn’t due to the install of the updated MT-Blacklist after­all. After a few more tries (thanks, <a href=“http://www.verture.net”>Jonas</a> I dis­cov­ered that the sin­gle char­ac­ter ‘v’ had ended up on the black­list, caus­ing quite a lot of string matches to fuck up.

Category feeds — and other feeds

Kalsey on cat­e­gory feeds: If I were to pro­vide a feed for my Mov­able Type tips cat­e­gory, there would be thou­sands of peo­ple read­ing it but never see the other things I write about.… I thought a bit about my own feeds as I’m slowly mov­ing through the stages of the blog redesign.

Blog redesign, episode 8

I’ve put in the Word­Count plu­gin to dis­play a word count on the date based archive pages. Upload the plu­gin, use the new tag. Con­tinue read­ing

Blog redesign, episode 7

Yet another use­ful plu­gin: Com­pare. It allows you to do those sim­ple lit­tle com­par­isons; did you make the com­ment, is the cat­e­gory ‘Tech’ etc. So I’ve pre­pared my Stuff cat­e­gory for some addi­tional styling and the com­ments for dis­play­ing whether I par­tic­i­pated or not.

Blog redesign, episode 6

I’ve installed the Acronym plu­gin which takes care of under­lin­ing and explain­ing and started list­ing the plu­g­ins I use at the bot­tom of the Colophon page. And I’ve merged my side­blog into the main index so the lit­tle link blurps just show up in their own slightly dif­fer­ent design (to be opti­mized shortly) in between the reg­u­lar posts.

Blog redesign, episode 5

I’ve just fin­ished imple­ment­ing nice urls. No more data­base IDs fol­lowed by .php — now it’s date based using yyyy/mm/dd/post_title_based_on_title. Con­tinue read­ing

Blog redesign, episode 3

I’ve renamed the moblog to ‘cam­blog’ (thoughts on that here), changed tem­plates accord­ingly and put a redi­rect line in my .htac­cess file which will hope­fully keep the thou­sands of sub­scribers to my very impor­tant image feed.… How­ever, I did remove some stuff from the side­bar; var­i­ous links not updated for ages, my blogroll (weblogs from my old Bloglines-account) and searches and ref­er­ers (sic!)

Blog redesign, episode 1

As expected this took some time, but here we go; a blog redesign wish list / to do list. Listed in no par­tic­u­lar order, here are some of the things I miss and some of the things I would just really like to do better…and var­i­uos tech-sih stuff I just wanna play with.

Blog redesign, prologue

Blog redesign is all the rage these days. It always is due to the play­ful, geeky nature of the web — and blogs in par­tic­u­lar for some rea­son — but the past month seems to be just a bit more intense. Con­tinue read­ing

Redesign / rethink check list

Apart from the obvi­ous need for a visual over­haul (some­where down the line the design just sort of self destruc­ted), I’m think­ing of going through all my code once again, as I’m not quite happy with the lack of lean­ness. … Con­tinue read­ing

Subscribing to OPML — get that RSS rolling

It’s all hap­pen­ing at Dawe Winer’s. The Who sub­scribes to my feed thing is a nice idea, more pow­er­ful, though, is the idea of sub­scrib­ing to OPML files. Imag­ine Jenny the Librar­ian man­ag­ing a set of librar­ian feeds for pro­gram­mers. Or … Con­tinue read­ing

Trackback my ass

Ouch, the miss­ing track­backs were miss­ing for a rea­son. Some­how back in March (!) I must have mis­placed the required TB-data — which explains a lot… And while deal­ing with my own bit of Warnock’s Dilemma I think I should … Con­tinue read­ing

Template trouble

As you may or may not have noticed (I guess you are all aggre­ga­tor peo­ple), I’ve been mess­ing around with my design/templates the last cou­ple of days. Live redesigns aren’t really the smartest thing to do, but I’ve done it … Con­tinue read­ing

RSS on individual posts

I’ve added RSS feeds to all posts. That way you can keep up with all the clever con­ver­sa­tion tak­ing place all the time around here. And I’ve tried to make it easy by includ­ing a link to each feed in … Con­tinue read­ing

Updating, part II

Updates con­tinue. Most of the tem­plates are now get­ting there, only need all code to val­i­date, seper­at­ing it into includes etc. The blog roll is back, just need to upload my cur­rent OPML file — no point in dis­play­ing an … Con­tinue read­ing

Updating

Doing some updates on the blog, so bear with me while I’m get­ting every­thing into place. Loads of but­tons etc. not work­ing at the moment — I started off with the lay­out, so now it’s up there with­out the cod­ing … Con­tinue read­ing

… And back again

Been down for a while. Moved to yet another host, this time I’m stay­ing. Got some stuff planned design– and fea­ture wise, so this tem­po­rary design will have to do for a cou­ple of days — just wanted to re-surface, … Con­tinue read­ing

Back again

I think I man­aged to move the files to the new server all­right. It appears to be work­ing, but I had to get rid of some of the lit­tle ASP-functions around the site. I’ll be replac­ing them with PHP ver­sions … Con­tinue read­ing

Host change

I’m going to change the host on pollas.dk later today. I’m not exactly sure when and how, and in a cou­ple of hours I’ll be away from my com­puter so I won’t be able to sort it all out imme­di­atly. … Con­tinue read­ing

MovableJive

Just needed to try out the Mov­able­Jive plu­gin, and as I’m absolutely des­perat to go to Lon­don (it’s been too long, spring in Lon­don is always nice) I might as well put that totally unim­por­tant bit of infor­ma­tion to use … Con­tinue read­ing

Was about to imple­ment mt-foaf v0.31, then I noticed this good news with a link to an Antip­ixel post on MT com­ments which I really liked, espe­cially after doing yesterday’s tem­plate adjust­ments which actu­ally just proved all the points. So … Con­tinue read­ing
