Baumblog: Updates
posted by Marc on March 13, 2007 @ 11:43AM
We've got some new updates available now. Some things smaller, some larger.
First off, the tag cloud should be working fine. We just need to tag posts with similar tags. So far the tagging has been on par, we just haven't had similar posts. After this post, you should notice the "updates" tag is larger in the cloud. (If not, oopsie!)
You'll now notice there's a "Remember me" check box in the login over there on the right. It works and it should keep you logged in for about 5 years. I figure that's a pretty good amount of time. (I'll be adding a log out button in the future just in case, but you can log out from the admin section).
The search engine works and is better than Blogger's by leaps and bounds, mostly because it works. Check it out, you'll notice it highlights the keywords in the returned posts, so finding things should be super easy.
For those of you people posting, there's no need to put in special HTML tags to make your posts separated in paragraphs. I do this automatically for you now.
Also for those of you people posting, you can now preview your posts. There's a new "Preview" button which will show you exactly what it will look like once you post it to the blog.
Here's what to expect this week: - A nice rich text editor for posting and possibly comments. The rich text editor is heavily JavaScript and kinda sluggish, so I may leave it out of comments.
- Kristen suggested a bigger comments box, does everyone else agree?
- Archives, working tag links, and permalinks (I'll explain these when they're released).
- Editing/deleting comments and posts. Right now this is done through the admin system, but I'm going to make it a bit easier.
- The recent activity is a big maybe. Most of the work is already done, but this is actually a pretty complex feature, so it may be rolled out with limited functionality and then added to, but no guarantees.
That's it, enjoy the updates, let me know if there's any bugs.
