Find Me Elsewhere

Filed under: Uncategorized 

I’m adding feeds to the “Find Me Elsewhere” window; so far I’ve added LiveJournal, flickr, last.fm, del.icio.us, twitter and Facebook.

I haven’t added jaiku, tumblr or pownce yet because I’m not really using those services at present.

What I might add are my wishlists at amazon.ca and thinkgeek :)

p.s. I just discovered this theme (Agregado) doesn’t like lists (the HTML “li”), which is a pain. It also doesn’t activate links in posts on the front page – you have to open this post (click on its title) in order to see the links. I foresee a hunt for a new theme in the near future. :(

    Lists show up fine within posts.

    Posts on the homepage don’t use the_content, they use the_excerpt, which doesn’t display links or images by default. This is a function of WordPress, not the theme itself.

    3. Yeah, I saw (and added to my post) that it’s OK once you go to the post’s page.

    I’m surprised it’s a feature of WP – I’m sure themes I’ve used in the past haven’t had this problem. It’s kind of annoying that they’re not active in the excerpt, but if that’s what WP does, then I guess I won’t find a different theme which does it the way I want. Presumably the only was to fix this is to use content instead of excerpt on the front page? (Which I could change myself.)

    But while I’ve got your attention :) is there a way to change two things in the Find Me Elsewhere section: (1) to have the items chronological rather than grouped by source, and (2) to change the up/down buttons to be a scroll bar?

Tell me what you're thinking...
