Recent Blog List v2
Yes - it’s there.
Last time I said there were some things I still wanted to complete on the byteclub blog roll, and so it is…
- Posts ordered by most recent - DONE (although an edit to a post also causes update)
- The title of the most recent post showing - DONE
- Checked out the cache settings - DONE
Things still to be done (perhaps)
- Show the number of comments next to each post title
- Create an export RSS feed for those that want to aggregate our aggretated list.. :)
- Get those monkeys showing
- Add more blogs (internal and external)
There is still the issue of a better migration from the old data to these new wordpress setups. I have grand intention to create a wiki entry on how we can do that… (it would be great to still be able to get back the old comments…)
Here’s a call (I think an actual email will be in order) for those that either a) want a new blog on byteclub or b) would like their blog listed on the byteclub roll, then please let me know. There are still some of the past active bloggers that I want to contact, and I’m sorry to those that I haven’t asked yet - you can always contact me first!
In other news, Lucien and I have grand schemes for some unified admin, and I actually think that will happen sooner rather than later, simply because it’s really needed.
Finally, I have updated the code syntax highlighter extension for the swinbrain wiki (and i’ll move the new version to byteclub soon). This was inspired by John asking if the extension could be used elsewhere, and so I decided to add a fix and some features. Short versions: single line works, don’t need to add ‘Y’ all the time (it’s implicit if you specify line numbers - kinda obvious now…) and you can now ask for special “marking” of individual lines, or a *range* of lines… quite swish. :~)
