Ok, my blog is back online after about a year in the meanders of my hard drive. Most of the stuff here is probably out of date, such as the Worpdress plugins, most of them written for pre-1.5 versions. As I don't use WP anymore, I'm unlikely to come up with more stuff, unless I decide to come back to it at some stage.
I think I will now write about other things, what exacly I'm not sure yet...
I finally updated my other site, salamba.info to Wordpress 1.5 and there's no doubt about it, it's good, very good. The feature I really like is the ability for the plugins to have a configuration page. That was really missing from the previous verions.
Another thing is of course the ability to create "static" pages, for fixed content, although you need a separate template for them. This actually is the minus side for me, the complexification (is that even a word?) of the template system: much more flexible but much more work...

Super, je viens de finir un projet qui me tenait coeur, un petit
In case you're using a syndication software that can read RSS2.0 feeds, and if you don't like the layout of this blog 
I offer syndication feeds for its content as well as the comments posted on the posts. You can get feeds for the comments on individual posts from the link at the top of the comments section:
The main feeds are:
The entries rss feed
and the comments feed.
Ok, I finally got the captcha working. Wasn't that hard, but it was more the concept that was kind of eluding me... Where to send the data from the image and from the text box, how to compare them and so on.
I like the way my little script works, because if for whatever reason the commenter didn't fil the captcha field properly, they wil be sent an email containing a link allowing them to publish their own comment. I'm wondering if spammers would learn how to make their robots do that... Anyway, doesn't matter because I haven't had a *single* comment spam since I changed over from wordpress yesterday. Wait and see, I guess.
So this is it. I've been working on it for the past few days, and I'm quite happy with what I've got now. Of course, I'm sure many of you will not feel that way. I myself feel somewhat like having betrayed Wordpress...
Anyway, the move is made now and I don't think there's any going back. I feel such a freedom from being able to hack the code in any (bad) way I want, it was like a breath of fresh air for me.
There are still a lot of features left to implement, like pingback (that one is a toughie!), a proper calendar, ideally using XMLHttpRequests, comments feeds, Atom feeds and a few more things. I would like some suggestions from readers as well, to see what can be done.
For now though, trackbacks should be functionnal (feel free to test it) and the RSS feed for articles is available. I reused some code from a few wordpress plugins, and I would like to give credit to Michel Fortin for Markdown, to Phu Ly & Dunstan Orchard & Michael Heilemann for Dunstan's Time of day and Time Since, to Daryl for his Amazon wishlist plugin, although I don't know if that will stay there for long, and to Bitflux for the LiveSearch functions. Thanks go out to all of them.
The Wordpress plugins are of course still available at the old URLs, although a few of them (especially the style_chooser, since the advent of themes) are now obsolete.
Anyway, hope you like the new design and all... I am waiting for your suggestions, bug reports, rants, and so on.
Alors ca y est. J'y pensais depuis un moment, en me demandant ce que c'etait que ces histoires de weblog, blogger, blog, etc... Et puis finalement j'ai décidé d'essayer, c'est une drôle de sensation de faire ca. Ca doit avoir une utilité pour certaines personnes, je suppose, mais alors pour moi, aucune... Et pourtant...
...Ca m'amuse.
De l'utilité du blog!!
Visitez le site web de ma boite, ok ?
This is Jonathan Foucher's new blog, using a home grown content management system. It is a live experiment in web application design, so things are going to break, there will be bugs and things will generally not work as expected. So good luck ;)
