Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome on stage: Textpattern 4.0.7! ⇒

If XML-RPC finally works that'd be hype.
This is a post from my link log: If you click the title of this post you will be taken the web page I am discussing.
Have you updated yet?
Also.. are your inline links done through delicious? This is something you’ve hacked in yourself, isn’t it?

Yeah, I hacked them in myself, though it’s a much smaller hack now then it was the first time I did things back with the really old versions of Textpattern. I’m going to try and update shortly. Maybe now.

And to expand on my comment, the main reason that I needed to hack my install up to get the links list working the way I liked is because I wanted the lists to be actual HTML lists. So it takes some work to figure out where to insert the open and close @ul@ tags. If you aren’t as anal, you can set up a link log easily enough. (You’d probably just need to override the form used to display the post on the front page.) I also have a little webpage/bookmarklet I hacked up to make posting links easier, which doesn’t use the textpattern interface. It sets the override form, the section to linklog, and does a few other things, and posts crap directly to the database. If the RPC server actually works, I could probably also replace that with something less kludgey.

I’m still looking forward to making the switch, though I want to get familiar with TextPattern itself (which I’m doing through another new blog) before transfering the content over.
