Tuesday Rant XVII
1258402948|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z (%O ago)

the-scream.jpeg

Technically, at least in this part of the globe, it's still Monday. However, since tomorrow I find myself on a trip to London, it's time for the Tuesday Rant, which is that section of the blog where you tell us all the stuff you are unhappy about with Wikidot. To misquote the sages of olden times, Then, shalt thou wait until Tuesday, not later, no earlier. Tuesday shalt be the day thou shalt rant, and the day of the ranting shalt be Tuesday. Thursday thou shalt not rant, nor either ranteth thou Monday, excepting very late in the evening, perhaps around 10pm, and then only if Pieter has launched the blog post early. Friday is right out.

Today my rant is simple and direct. I hate that Wikidot has multiple editor interfaces and it gets me every single ranting time. Ctrl+S? No, sorry, bzzzzt! Find mouse, move pointer to Save, click button. Aaagh!

There are many things to improve in Wikidot but right now, perhaps because it's almost Tuesday, the one that annoys me the most is that I can't use Ctrl+S systematically when I make a comment, add a tag, change the parent page, edit a page, write a personal message, or modify a custom stylesheet.

Live Page Embedding
1258033092|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z (%O ago)

The new cross-site includes feature lets you include the source of one page into another. We're finding lots of use for this powerful extension to normal includes, which used to work only inside one site. I'm going to show you a simple way of getting a live 'view' of another page.

By gerdamigerdami on 1252224738|%e %b|agohover, last edit on 1252224890|%e %b, %H:%M|agohover

Apple’s official list of problematic apps remains concise. A far more exhaustive compatibility list is provided by the community-edited snowleopard.wikidot.com.

Latest Changelog >>>
2009-11-13
  • /code/1 extraction URI did not work on hidden pages - fixed. ([http://community.wikidot.com/forum/t-194353#post-626155 Original report).
  • If URI ends in /noredirect/true, custom domain redirection is switched off, letting admins access Wikidot sites with lost DNS names.
  • Removed the popup "You have no valid security token which is required to prevent identity theft", which was useless and annoying (e.g. if you tried to use Google translate on any page with an input form).

  • New accounts now have "Watching sites" off by default
  • The Feed module stopped working in some cases - fixed
