Tomboy to Blog using APP

Urs Gehrig — 2007-08-31T20:19:18Z

There is yet a newer plugin (http://flukkost.nu/blog/) for tomboy using the Atom Publishing Protocol (APP), which e.g. works with Wordpress 2.2, after having applied a patch (http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4191).

Tomboy to Wordpress

Urs Gehrig — 2007-08-31T18:32:41Z

A tomboy plugin that allows posting notes to a Wordpress blog. The plugin can be found at:

http://flukkost.nu/blog/tomboyblogposter

The xmlrpc link might look like:

http://URSERNAME.freeflux.net/blog/xmlrpc.xml

Update: The plugin also works with freeflux blogs, as you can see, but it does not automatically add a default category. That is probably the reason, why the post does not get listed in the blog directly.

ScribeFire

ScribeFire is a convenient add-on to firefox helping you to write blog posts to your personal blog site.

Update: "Powered by ScribeFire." is added by default.

Recently in Berlin. The image shown here has been entered by the "Insert Flickr Image" plugin for Windows live writer. A list of various plugins can be found on this blog post.

Using writely to post to freeflux

Urs Gehrig — 2006-09-20T14:56:18Z

Test posting from writely to freeflux. writely is yet another service provided by Google that lets you create, import and export documents. One way of publishing is to post the document to your favourite blog using an XML RPC interface. Inbetween there are lots of rich text editors. But writely offers even collaborative work with revision control which might become a different approach of blogging.

To configure writely use the following link and replace USERNAME with your appropriate blog username:

http://URSERNAME.freeflux.net/blog/xmlrpc.xml

You can add multiple tags to your writely document which will represent categories in freeflux. Categories have to preexist.

The whole approach has a drawback - writely does not (yet) read-back the blog post. So if you change the blog post elsewhere, e.g. with the freeflux built-in editor, writely will still have the old post in its archive.

Aktuellstes moblog Bild aus einem RSS feed

Urs Gehrig — 2006-04-25T13:34:48Z

Mit hilfreichen Hinweisen von chregu konnte ich den Blog mit einem "latest moblog" Bild erweitern. Die Bilder liegen auf einem externen Server. Es wird zur Darstellung derselben einzig ein RSS feed geparst und der letzte Eintrag dargestellt. Dazu sind folgende Modifikationen vorzunehmen:

Im master.xsl ganz am Schluss anfügen:

<xsl:template name="blogli-feed">    <h3 class="blog"><a href="http://www.blog.li/pri">blog.li/trash moblog     <ul>     <xsl:for-each select="php:function('bx_helpers_simplecache::staticHttpReadAsDom', 'http://blog.li/pri/?view=rss')/rss/channel/item[position() < 2 ]">        <li><a title="{title}" href="{link}"><xsl:value-of select="title"/></a></li>        <li><xsl:value-of select="description" disable-output-escaping="yes" /></li> </xsl:for-each> <li>                 <a href="http://blog.li/pri/?view=rss" title="blog.li feed">                 <img src="/files/images/xml.gif" alt="RSS Feed" border="0" />            </a></li>     </ul> </xsl:template>

und im blog.xsl an geeigneter Stelle nachstehenden Eintrag machen: <xsl:call-template name="blogli-feed"/>

Viel Spass!

Toll, dass man direkt beim Verfassen des Posts eine neue Kategorie verfassen kann.

Now with fck editor

Urs Gehrig — 2005-11-27T00:58:14Z

FCK editor is now the default editor here. Works pretty well.
