Anyone gotten Performancing with FireFox to work with a Geeklog site?

I'd guess you would need the blog plugin on Geeklog's side.

hrm.. Well, I installed that plugin and sure enough Performancing seems to /kinda/ work.

The title for every post is "Untitled", and specifying a title for a new post seems to be ignored. The title just comes up as the post-text truncated at a certain point. Anyone else seen this?

The blog plugin implements the Blogger API, which doesn't support titles for the blog posts. There are some workarounds for this using the HTML title tag, for example. Looks like Performancing is not using that workaround, though.

well, what tool does support the "Title Tags" you're using? I just tried Qumana, and that doesn't work either.

Does anyone know of any offline (non-web based) tool for Geeklog Post Authoring/Submitting?

The documentation of the blog plugin lists a few. Although I have to admit that I haven't looked at the plugin in a while, so it might have a few issues with the current Geeklog version.

The only issue I had was 1 code change in blog_editStory:

Originally, the entire story would wind up in the "What's Related" block, with li's mapped to each paragraph. This way seems to work.

Is this plugin still "Shareware"? OR has it lapsed into Public Domain/gpl? Just ask because it sounds like you don't do much with it anymore...

To quote from the list of changes: "The plugin is now licensed under the GPL. Donations are still welcome, though."



Lack of time, mostly

It also requires some intimate knowledge of the inner workings of Geeklog and the plugins it supports, so I've been toying with the idea of making this a part of Geeklog eventually. Haven't gotten very far with that, though - see above ...
