Andy Oliver wants

2. Comment button - Sammy boy has them on his page.. I'm curious what kind of comments I'd get... I suppose it should be toggleable on/off because I might not like them ;-)[Hacking Log 2.0]

It'll be in the next release, Andy. I checked in code today. As you wanted, you will be able to disable comments, and you'll also be able to delete comments.

So far as online help, Dave has written a User Guide (that seems to be unavailable right now). I've scoped out "switchable themes" (mostly in my head), but I may not be able to get to it any time soon. And I think the box hosting FreeRoller is an Anthony Eden spare, desperate for more memory.

For further reading on today's posts:

Blogging Roller : Andy suggested a couple of good Roller enhancements. He asked for comments,which Lance just checked in . He also asked for some docs, here is the User Guide . Blogging Roller : Roller is certainly going strong. At the start of the week I forked 0.9.6 off into it's own branch in case we need to do a bug fix release. Since then, Lance has checked in two great new features: support for comments on weblog entries and a spelling checker for the weblog editor. Great stuff. Matt Raible has kindly opened up a demo account on his Roller install so you can try the new features.

New Roller Themes, Redux
Know what I said the other day about Roller needing some more "stock" themes? Welll, Carlos has gone and improved his blogs look, and damn does it look good! Carlos, please, let's have your design for all of Roller to share. ( Nov 07 2002, 08:25:38 AM ) Roller Permalink [Trackback] [Link]

Dave is playing around with his theme some more. I noticed this morning he has changed his color scheme. I liked the "metal" version, but I like this one too. Dave, feel free to check them both in ;-) ( Nov 06 2002, 08:12:29 PM ) Roller Permalink [Trackback]

And They Shall Know Me By My Web Search Hits
Danno and I have both discovered how much fun the referer list can be, spotting the odd Googles that lead to our sites. Granted, Danno get much odder Googles than I. ( Nov 06 2002, 08:23:55 AM ) Entertainment Permalink [Trackback]

Roller needs more Themes
While I like my "stock" theme (Currency), I think Roller could use a few more to choose from. I'd like to single out a couple Roller users who have developed their own interesting themes: Dave, Danno, Carlos, and Jon Tirsen. I'd like to encourage each of you to submit your theme for other Rollers to use. ( Nov 05 2002, 11:01:45 PM ) Roller Permalink [Trackback]

Struts html:textarea tag doesn't allow the wrap attribute?! Can somebody tell me why this is? The text wrap appears to default to "virtual", but what if I wanted to specify something else? ( Nov 05 2002, 08:12:29 PM ) Technology Permalink [Trackback]
