I’m attempting to speed up my site using some in-line styles. So far it appears to be working, but let me know if you see anything odd.
I ran across another site that made tags appear as hashtags. Kind of makes sense, giving the rise of their use. Another neat feature was showing the count of use. Testing something similar on my site, it was an easier change than expected. I like the look so far.
I cleaned up my categories, mostly trimming them down to a manageable number and adding descriptions. I may still tweak some more, but they work for now.
Also, I updated the category images to use larger, higher resolutions. They will now be displayed in the top, title area. Although updated, I decided to remove the category image from the news article itself as it was redundant.
I cleaned up a bunch of the internals to the site, mostly matching themes and fixing layouts.I also fixed an editing bug that would cause comments to get get un-nested. Having changed my username a few times over the years, when I edit an article it will now set it to the current one.
As a final change, I replaced the primary pots image with a new moon one. It’s kind of a pain to change, so I’ve noted a future idea to make it editable.
Was fixing some of the editor buttons in my changelog and discovered a but. I’d forgotten to unescape the text.
While fixing buttons, I made some actions into buttons to match styles. Most were admin features, so won’t be visible. What is visible, though, is I renamed the pager buttons. I didn’t like the ‘Older’ and ‘Newer’ text, reverting it to ‘Previous’ and ‘Next.’
