After about two years of using this CMS/blog system, I've finally implemented the ability to filter blog posts by tag. By “tags”, I mean the things at the top-right corner of my blog posts that warn non-technical readers to stay away from posts like this one. What this means is that you can look at all my posts about the news, the environment, security etc. Hmm... apparently I haven't written anything about security for over a year...
This is helpful if you're only interested in reading the pointless random stuff I say about, say, artichokes. Or zebus. (Maybe one of these days I'll make it so that you can filter out my artichoke-related posts.)
The main reason that I implemented was for Planet SoC, which is the (among other things) aggregator for Google Summer of Code participants’ blogs. And, naturally, the main page is intended to have only GSoC-related posts. etc., etc.... (One problem is that Planet SoC seems to be adding <br/> tags to my posts...)
In related news, I have finally made my CMS downloadable via my public git repository. The next step is to actually document the important bits (like how to use it). Because its mode of operation is, shall we say, “nonstandard”. (What? A CMS without a database? Is that even possible?)
In more GSoC news, I have set up a section for my project. There, I will be putting my notes, my to-do list, and any other relevant information.
I've also started collecting information for part of my project.
Now I just need to finish my thesis so I can focus on coding...
