You can find what we have so far of the documentation in the”about” section.

Story types is there just to let you create different types of templates, so you can keep categories for classification and types for the code.

Comment on Ordered Lists or Priority sorting?

Hi Christina, I am looking for more information on story-types and how they can be used. I would like to be able to have some different template treatments of different types of pages/articles.

I know you are rebuilding your documentation though—so just let me know when you think it might be available. (At least, I am not finding it, here, so presume it got lost in the great fire?!)

thanks alot and best,

Comment on Big Release: Something for everyone

Autopublish is finally really truely here, plus a couple other ride-along improvements:

*Alt Tag*

On the story edit page image tags are pre-generated for users to copy
and paste into stories. It used to be the alt value generated was
the keyword, and if no keywords, the filename. It’s now caption if
there is one, then keywords, if there are any, then filename. This
is done and available live now.

*Profile Story Sort Order*

The current liquid provides a list of stories from oldest to newest.
To get a list from newest to oldest you’ll need to change the
liquid. The liquid that needs to change is any reference to
‘person.published_stories’. Change these references to
‘person.recently_published_stories’ and the same list of stories will
appear in reverse order, from newest to oldest.

Current example:



      {% if person.published_stories != empty %}

          Stories written by {{ person.name }}
          <a href="%7B%7B%20person.stories_rss_url%20%7D%7D" rel="nofollow"></a>

{{ story.title }} {{ story.published_at |
date }}

With new edits:



      {% if person.recently_published_stories != empty %}

          Stories written by {{ person.name }}
          <a href="%7B%7B%20person.stories_rss_url%20%7D%7D" rel="nofollow"></a>

{{ story.title }} {{ story.published_at |
date }}

We did hit a couple of bumps in the road on autopublish, due to how the internal clock is set, but we’re working on fixes now. We’re also planning to get the clock down to hours, which will help also.

Three cheers for independent media and a platform that plays to its strengths.

Site looks awesome! Some great ideas on display.

This release is awesome. Everything I knew I wanted (autopublish) and everything I didn’t know I wanted (template staging).

We’re ahppy to have gotten some new life (and thanks to CIM (see previous story) for providing that jolt)

Comment on 5 reasons not to use email for login

A nice list. Without trying to exhaust the subject:
1. Forgetting UserName happens, whether it’s email or not. PWD management is an on-going challenge.
2. Fake email should result in failed authentication of registration. And yes, I think authentication as Step 1 is only reasonable.
3. Given PWD management (and even if not), the user should always be able to change the address to which they want notifications sent.
4. I think all those little problems can be dealt with systematically and effectively.
5. UserName can be uncoupled from login, so email for login and UserName as displayed name is not wicked.

cheers

*File under ’’Lessons not yet Learned’‘*

Probably this is the wrong venue for this comment. But that’s self-reflective; I’m writing to say, “Hey, how come I can’t find a place for feedback on site function!” So please do delete this as you see fit.

I wanted to relate how “Delete” on comments works from the Admin page but not on the story page.
And that you have <p> showing on your People page.
All of this /after/ saying, “Woot woooot! I love it!”

p.s. if I sometimes sound cranky it’s because I’ve been at it since ‘72 and get impatient when basics are overlooked
