Changes in weblog
After upgrading to blosxom 2.0, I made some changes in this weblog, by:
- Replacing my old crontab generated tree by blosxom's dynamic plugin.
- Adding the archive plugin (the calendar list in the right column). I had to patch this one to make it XHTML 1.1 compliant.
- Adding the paginate plugin, that gives links to next and previous
pages, as well as to all available ones.
This plugin is still buggy: The last entry in the last page is a ghost one, and it does not use the current category to compute the number of pages. This last problem is probably due to the structure of plugins itself.
I also switched my main page from
Server Side Includes
to
a PHP one. In fact my SSI scripts were going
really long, and difficult to maintain. With PHP I was able to rewrite the
whole in a few lines, while still being able to fully control the page.
Eventually I added a lot of rewrite rules in my apache configuration,
to be able to "hide" the most of the weblog structure (the php is hidden,
old links are redirected, etc...).
