💬 Added Search Powered by DuckDuckGo
I’ve added a search bar to my site’s main navigation that’s powered by DuckDuckGo. Its styling doesn’t look quite right to me when on a desktop, though, and while it looks more at-home on mobile it also doesn’t feel quite correct. Perhaps, though, I’m being overcritical.
💬 Image Resize and Tidy
I’ve sorted out how to have Hugo resize images larger than 1,080 pixels in width/height, and also started using HTML Tidy to clean up my generated pages. They weren’t itches I knew I had earlier this month, but they’re scratched now.
💬 Got the Flu Before MFF 2019
So, reviewing my symptoms I got two days ago I’m 95% sure I got the flu. While I really want to go to see friends I don’t see often, I can’t in good conscience go to #MFF when I could become a Patient Zero. And all this makes me a sad (red) panda.
💬 A Bit of a Rest Week
A bit of a rest week this week. The only trip I have is an easy three day turn to/from Las Vegas. This gives me plenty of time to just enjoy a few days off, plan out my holiday purchases, and find a room to crash for Midwest FurFest #MFF2019
💬 Hurrah, Webmentions Are Now Displayed!
Hurrah, webmentions are now displayed! My implementation of it for my site is done during Hugo’s static generation, so alack new mentions are not displayed in real time. Yet. Maybe soon?
💬 So Much Metadata
So much metadata, but now all the posting types have additional metadata in the form of OpenGraph (Facebook), Twitter Cards (Twitter), and Schema.org (Google). But man, that was a total slog to actually make sure it all works.
💬 Just Added 'View on Silo' Links
Just added ‘View on Silo’ links. Currently it reads a syndication link of a post. If it recognizes the host it will show a link with ‘View on…’ as a title attribute and text. It’d be nicer if it was more actionable than that, but that’s a next step. Also, there’s a mysterious margin on the Timeline for the buttons and I can’t sort out which property is affecting it.
💬 I Added Taxonomies to my Site
I added taxonomies to my site! To do it I did a bit of creative fooling around (oh murr) with Hugo and the HTML details
tag to show/hide my site’s sections (called Types on my site) and tags. Next up: show a ‘View on Twitter/Mastodon’ button.
💬 Twitter/Mastodon Syndication a Little Odd
Twitter/Mastodon syndication is a little odd. Mainly my check-ins are showing up as photos without h-geo
information being forwarded, and photo summaries aren’t showing up as expected. Thinking is required.
