Tinkering beneath the hood.

Again, let me harp on something none of you may care about. I’ve made some changes - things I’ve wanted to tweak for a while now, really - and if you’re aggregating this blog in any way, you should know about them.

First, tags are no longer going to function like they used to. Instead of /daniel?tag=poetry the link will be /daniel/tag/poetry/ just makes more sense. You can, if you wish, aggregate a particular tag’s feed if you like. For instance, if you’d like to read none of his blog except for all thing poetry, you can grab that tag’s RSS feed, or you could do the same with any of the others.

Also, if you subscribe to the main feed, you’ll have noticed how it includes the tag links twice. I’ve found the troublesome option that causes said duplicity and disabled it. You shouldn’t have that cosmetic peccadillo bothering you any longer. It always bothered me.

And that’s all, folks. Thanks as always to Christine for creating UTW.

    I’ve often been curious about the double-tagging on the main feed, but I always wrote it off to some personal wackiness on your part. :-) Glad you were able to do some useful debugging.

    Apparently if “include tags in post” and “include tags in rss feed” are both checked, it doubles up. Which I think is weird, but I had them both checked. In any case, it’s working pretty sweetly now.
