Blog stuff

May 14, 2004 Stephanie Leary

Reading the 300-odd comments on Mena’s MT 3.0 post has led me to a lot of new blogs. Among other things, I learned how to include TrackBacks inline with the comments on individual post archives. Step 1: Grab and install Adam Kalsey’s SimpleComments plugin. Step 2: Follow Phil Ringnalda’s instructions for rebuilding the individual archives on pings. Step 3: Tinker with archive templates. (Via Professor Lawley’s MT Courseware instructions.)

Another blog I found is Heal Your Church Web Site, wherein a knowledgeable fellow takes churches to task for their dreadful sites. I was once involved in a plan to design a site for my old church. The church administration imploded before we’d gotten very far, and then I left, and the project never went anywhere. Still, I have a lot of sympathy for this guy. I particularly like The Seven Deadly Sins of Flash Banner Menus.
