This is a Blosxom weblog.
Timestamps are in UTC.
The following plugins are used:
ƒ/2.8
with a Unicode hooked italic lowercase f (U0192). Handles ranges such as “ƒ/3.5-5.6”. This is my own hack.<title>
element.rss10
plugin.categories
Changed the spacing between the category name and number of entries to
match the formatting of the archives
plugin.
Wrapped each leaf <ul>
in <li>
to ensure XHTML
compliance. Unfortunately, this makes the tree look funny. This is
alleviated by setting the same class indentity to all the <ul>
tags
and then removing the bullets with the help of CSS.
config
This is used to vary the number of posts shown per category.
The front page is limited to 10. However, if you choose a category, you should be able to see all the entries in that category.
This plugin takes care of this. Create a file config
:
package blosxom;
$blosxom::num_entries = ($blosxom::path_info ? 999 : 10);
and place it in your data directory. If the $path_info
variable is
populated, we’re in a subdirectory — show all posts (if you’re
category has more than 999 posts, adjust accordingly…), otherwise
show 10 entries.
Thanks to Stu MacKenzie on the Blosxom list for this.
Update 2007-09-28: This no longer works in static mode. I have disabled the plugin. Instead I’m using the prefs
plugin, with the following pageprefs
file:
if (($pagetype::pagetype eq 'chrono') or ($pagetype::pagetype eq
'category')) { $blosxom::num_entries = 999 } else
{ $blosxom::num_entries = 10 };
postheadprefoot
See this post for more info on how I got this working.
Update 2007-10-12: no longer used for the purpose above, replaced by archivetable
.
redirect
The config file needs to have the same file extension as the target
post (well, duh…). I keep my posts as .txt
in the filesystem, and
my default flavour is .html
. So to redirect the entry foo
I use the line
path/to/foo.html=>new/path/to/foo.html
vrss10
I made symlinks ending in .rdf
to each flavour file in the vrss10
package. Now I can reference my RSS 1.0 feed as
http://gerikson.com/blog/index.rdf
.
This is the ordering of the plugins. Most of the modifications are made so the that the atomfeed
will get the post as intended.
